Story

As I flew over the lush valleys and deep gorges carved below us, I could feel the bristle of anticipation. We were now only feet above a vast expanse of white, a glacier miles long stretching before us. The remote, vast, and rugged area that is the West Coast of British Columbia has engulfed us for more than an hour now. Our destination was Owikeena Lake, a land that takes you back in time.

My friend, and essential guide on this trip, was Ted Walkus, hereditary Chief of the Owikeeno tribe at River’s Inlet. He had told me of an old legend of his people, of a powerful guardian who had protected his ancestral village when their village site had been at the North end of Owikeeno Lake. The settlement is presently found on the Owikeeno River just before it empties into Rivers Inlet on the Pacific Ocean.

His story was of ‘The Guardian of the Pass’, a huge stone eagle at the narrows of Owikeeno Lake. It is said that the eagle would oversee all who travelled throughout the narrows. Those of goodwill were allowed to pass; those who came as enemies would be crushed by his enormous stone wing. 

The cruel, clean glacier dropped sharply below us. We were now suddenly thousands of feet above a long, green finger of water. Within minutes, we were taxiing on the choppy, glacier waters of Owikeeno Lake.

The plane turned into the wind, and there before us was the stone eagle. The narrows of Owikeeno Lake are only a few hundred yards wide, and the guardian strikes an imposing figure as he watches you pass below. He is so prominent, so real. I was glad I had come as a friend.

I could feel his eye watching me as I photographed the scene. I sensed the painting already - a feeling of urgency, a story to be told. I could feel the presence.

We finished, turned into the wind - the cool, lonely wind of the West Coast. We took to the air. I could still sense I was being watched.

Perhaps they are true, those legends of thousands of years. Perhaps the Stone Eagle is ‘The Guardian of the Pass.

Perfect Sink Organizer — Compact, Sturdy, and Stylish
Color: Black
This large sponge holder for the kitchen sink is exactly what I needed to clean up my countertop clutter. The 90-degree L-shaped design fits perfectly into the corner by the sink, making great use of space without getting in the way. The metal construction feels solid and durable, and it holds everything neatly—sponges, soap, and a dish brush all in one place. I especially like that it allows items to drain and dry properly, which helps keep things cleaner and more hygienic. Setup was quick and simple, and the minimalist design looks great with modern kitchen décor. It stays stable, doesn’t tip over, and keeps essentials easily within reach. Overall, this sink caddy is a smart, practical storage solution that’s both functional and attractive. A small upgrade that makes a big difference—highly recommended!

I really loved this sponge holder. It’s quite spacious and fits everything I need like the sponge, soap, and even a brush. It looks very nice on the sink and helps keep everything organized and clean. The material feels sturdy and is easy to clean. It also drains water well, so it doesn’t stay wet. I definitely recommend it

Sponge Holder
Size: 7.125 x 2.875, Color: Black, Size: 7.125 x 2.875, Color: Black
This sponge holder is a simple upgrade that makes a big difference in keeping the sink area clean and organized. The suction cup holds firmly to the side of the sink, so it doesn’t slide around or fall off like cheaper options. It easily fits both a sponge and a steel scrubber, keeping them elevated and allowing them to dry quickly, which helps prevent odors and bacteria buildup. The open wire design is especially useful because it allows water to drain instead of pooling at the bottom. Installation is quick and requires no tools—just press it onto a clean surface and you’re good to go. It also keeps the countertop clutter-free, which is a nice bonus. Overall, it’s durable, functional, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Great value for anyone looking to keep their kitchen sink area tidy and hygienic.
