The opening of Saanichton Green was on October 13th, 2001, which means #CSaan is celebrating 25years of this jewel in #Saanichton.

This park also happens to be home to the #LogCabinMuseum - as it has been for 93years!

Oh #CookieMonster, we completely agree that the photo of you & your new bestie, Harrison Ford, belongs in a #museum.
In fact, we thought you had such a great idea, we put it in a frame and put it in our #LogCabinMuseum, in the permanent Children’s display! Hope you enjoy the love. 💙🍪

We're now at that time of the year - when we trade the blazing orange of summer sunsets, for the blazing orange of pumpkins in the local #farm fields!

As we say goodbye to the last weekend of the summer of 2026, we look forward to the #autumn harvest.

The last day of the #SaanichFair, with a couple of hours left. Come visit!

It's also #LabourDay in #Canada. A holiday since 1894, the movement started in the 1870s, eventually leading to the enactment of the #TradeUnionsAct, confirming the legality of unions in our country!

We feel seen with this year’s #SaanichFair theme of #SmallButMIGHTY - because the #LogCabinMuseum is certainly that!

If you’re coming out to the #SaanichFair today, you’ll find us in the Gallery Building, in the midst of all the action!

Another afternoon of hazy skies on the #SaanichPeninsula.

This #FlashBackFriday is of another hazy sky view, thanks to BC forest fires. Similar to last month’s post & photo, except this time, the view is obscured to the point that we can’t even pinpoint the location!

This undated photo shows Saanich Peninsula resident Millie Horth, watering a monkey puzzle tree from a watering can.💧

Not everyone has watering restrictions (yet), but #HandWatering has been a thing for a long time!🙂

“When his old fence needed replacing last November, Allan Collier didn’t just put up a new fence — he also incorporated a custom miniature museum display.” ~ @timescolonist.bsky.social

A wonderful idea!

We're fans of all kinds of #museums @ #LogCabinMuseum!😁

Design 'museum' with no lines, crowds pops up in Saanich neighbourhood
The display case built into Allan Collier’s fence near Playfair Park features examples of Canadian design over the years.
