rubber cement and lake lovelywater round 2

I spent last week running about town looking for the elusive rubber cement (the only acceptable adhesive for serious poster-makers) and putting together my final project for Earth, Oceans, Space. Here is an insider tip: Garibaldi Graphics. The dollar store, the hardware store, and Shoppers Drug-mart will only disappoint. And if you don't have rubber cement, why are you even making a poster?

With my poster done I was free to take the weekend and gallivant off into the Tantalus Mountains across the Squamish River and visit, once again, the lovely Lake Lovelywater! The hike was moderately epic... there were giant cables to cross, 8-foot snowbanks to climb, backpacks (and boots, and socks) to soak, pasta and he-man chili to eat, and giant windstorms to experience. The snow was deeper and tougher to negotiate than last time, we used an alternate cable-crossing method, and we camped up at the lake. It was a full value little adventure, and today I think we're all feeling it (in a good/painful way). This is one of the most awesome things about Quest - I can find a group of kids who want to spend the weekend hiking up and down giant snow-covered mountains.
