I wanted to start this post by saying Klahowya Tillicum and did some research to make sure I wasn’t misremembering the meaning (Hello Friend). It turns out there’s a lot of history associated with the phrase.

If you’re interested in linguistics, or ever used the greeting and want to know the context, there’s a great article on Chinook Jargon↑ you might read. Don’t blame me if you start pondering colonialism. :)

Back to Tillicum Island. I saw this image↑ by Darkyn Dover and went to check the location out.
Set up by Tinker Drew↑ and her partner Scott Yedmore↑, this is a region that just cries out for itchy camera fingers. Tinker is a wonderful photographer and knew what would appeal to the rest of us.

I just realized as I was writing this that Inara also visited the island recently, you can read her post here↑ and find out much more information about what’s available.
I’ll just add to her description by mentioning that there’s a cave as well. :)
