  1. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    At last, on the last day of 1824, the men who were in James McMillan's exploration brigade to the Fraser River finally make it home to Fort George #Astoria, after a few weeks of rain, cold winter weather and bad winds that delayed them in their journey. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains nancymargueriteanderson.com/fr

  2. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    In 1824, James McMillan and his small group of explorers made a winter journey from Fort George #Astoria to the Fraser River by a stream that led them north from Puget Sound. They spent some days exploring the river and speaking to the First Nations people who lived near where #FortLangley would later be constructed. #TheHBCBrigades #WestOfTheMountains #Journeys nancymargueriteanderson.com/ex

    In 1824, James McMillan's expedition north to the Fraser River left Fort George #Astoria #WA shortly after the arrival of the incoming boats that carried him into the territory. McMillan was exploring the Fraser for the location of the new #FortLangley. #HBCHistory #Journeys #TheHBCBrigades nancymargueriteanderson.com/fr

  4. …OR Sec State Read will speak at a protest in #Beaverton.

    In the Willamette Valley, protesters will gather at the Capitol building in #Salem, in #Eugene, #Silverton and #Corvallis.

    Along the Oregon coast, protesters will rally in several cities including #Astoria, #Seaside, #Newport and #LincolnCity.

    Protests will also reach southern, central and eastern #Oregon.

    In #UnionCounty, volunteer organizer Cheryl Campbell said #NoKings rallies help people in rural areas know they are not alone…

  9. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    John Stuart, bourgeois of the North West Company, was the first gentleman to lead out the Brigades to Fort George #Astoria. However, the NWC brigades differed quite markedly from the later HBC Brigades. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains nancymargueriteanderson.com/jo

  10. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    From early days, the headquarters of the HBC had two locations: one at Fort George #Astoria, and the northern headquarters at #FortStJames, where the HBC Brigades began their journey south. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains nancymargueriteanderson.com/fo

  11. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    The North West Company's man in charge, John Stuart, took out the first brigades to Fort George #Astoria, at the mouth of the Columbia River, in 1813. But the NWC brigades were different from the HBC Brigades: one brought in provisions, the other brought in trade goods. #HBCHistory #Journeys #TheHBCBrigades nancymargueriteanderson.com/jo

  13. Playing with my new #OM #TG7 camera. Trying to find a good durable weather resistant travel/ #hiking camera. Really disappointed many cameras don't have built-in GPS tagging anymore. I don't want to have to be tied to my phone in any way, I don't want to deal with post processing and matching up timestamps.

    The TG-7 seems to ticks those boxes, but at the cost of a relatively small sensor and some other questionable specs. Though I do appreciate it's ruggedness, supposed to survive 7' drops? Sure!

    Not 100% sold on it yet, probably going to return it just on the lack of manual controls alone. A couple of photos in and around #astoria #nyc this evening. I do appreciate the macro mode, captures some good details.

    If anyone has any good #travel #compact #cameras recommendations please give me a shout! Also looking at the #Ricoh #GR3 as another possible option.

  19. #RoadTrip
    #astoria #oregon was wet and cold so I was thrilled to have a covered tent site across from the laundry/showerhouse, and with an indoor pool/hot tub. I barely made it to get gas en route to #portland. I visited #BobsRedMill and the Pendleton store, buying the exact size and colour of 100% wool blanket fabric I wanted for about $50 USD. The #NorthwestHostel was a delightful place to stay, with an extra fun trivia night on arrival. Wonderful boiled bagels were available every morning.
