Yesterday Kasandra and I hoped onto a ferry over to Galiano Island and went kayaking for the day with my parents. We paddled a similar route I did on Canada Day however we didn’t paddle as far as Wallace Island.

Presumptive 2006 Tour winner Floyd Landis was fired by Phonak today after the test of his B-sample came back positive for a high testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio.
Christian Prudhomme, the director of the Tour, said "It goes without saying that for us Floyd Landis is no longer the winner of the 2006 Tour de France."
Landis repeated his assertions that he is innocent, and that he'll contest the results in any way available:
"I will fight these charges with the same determination and intensity that I bring to my training and racing. It is now my goal to clear my name and restore what I worked so hard to achieve."
Phonak offered a short statement outlining the dismissal, and saying Landis's defense is now "his personal affair." The team promises a press conference "in the next couple of days."
