  • Welcome to Good Hope Cannery in Rivers Inlet, BC, Canada.
    Guests have arrived! We've been waiting and preparing for almost 2 months now. We had a wonderful group join us at the cannery for a little visit. They explored the area, visited Hakai and Owekeno Village.
    Kathryn arrived with the heli to take the guests on some of their adventures and I was lucky enough to be invited on a little get away to Calvert Island with Chelsey, Tony and the dogs.
    Join us on this little adventure on the beautiful west coast.
    Please subscribe to my channel to help me reach my goal of 1000 followers.
    Thanks for watching and take care until next time!

      Haha i’m definitely chill at the moment as there’s only five of us here but once it gets further in the season and we start getting a few guests, I’ll be slowing down on the content. I’m sure. Thank you so much.

      It is, is t it. Went to those places when I lived in OF. Loved the trail walk and hearing the surf the closer you got to the beach. Only went to west beach. Don’t think there were trails to the others back in the 60s.

    What a wonderful video, Jenny. You do such a wonderful job. Amazing work in your kitchen helping to make your guests have a wonderful visit. My Dad used to go up to the Hakai Pass area, for a fishing break. He was Vice President of Canfor in Vancouver. Being a logging company they had the use of either a chopper or a beautiful Grumann Goose.
    You have such great Chi, , , , , The literal translation of Chi, would be Life's Breath. I have the Chinese character, as a tattoo, on my shoulder blade.
    You are such an amazing lady. Be Well Don't change.

      Thank you, Robin. Your comment made my heart light up. I think that is a really cool tattoo idea and I appreciate that you feel it represents me as well. I do love life and I see no reason to be negative about the things we cannot change. We can only control ourselves.
      Hakai is a cool area, Ive only ever flown over and landed once to drop off a staff member. Im sure I was in a Goose.
      It's such a beautiful location.

    Wow, if I wasn't so jealous of your life there at Good Hope, I'd be envious...lol. To top it off, you get a ride along in a helicopter. It has been years and years since I was in a helicopter. Your videos are really good Jenny, as are the many dishes you come up with. I wish I could have tasted your pesto. Just the scenery alone, would be enough to make up for the seclusion of Good Hope, although I think if I was ever fortunate enough to visit, I might not want to leave. Don't get me wrong, living on Vancouver Island, the scenery is pretty spectacular here too. I look forward to your next submission. 😍😍🌹🌹💖💖👌👌👏👏👍👍
