  1. RE: bclocal.news/@kamloops/1169910

    Every #BCWildfire season seems to bring out a bunch of folks who place their own needs above those of the greater community; folks who believe public resources can be appropriated to serve their own selfish interests.

    In #BostonBar some numpty damaged the community water system by immproperly turning on a valve to reactivate the public water system after authorities had shut it off reserve the dwindling supply for firefighting efforts.

    In the #Shuswap last year people were stealing firefighting equipment put in place to protect vital infrastructure (wooden bridges) presumably to repurpose it to protect their own properties.

    I can’t help but believe that these are the same people that railed against the public health measures put in place during the early COVID pandemic… 🤨

    Meanwhile the news this morning was featuring some stay-behinds in 70 Mile as brave folks staying behind to ‘protect their community’. Stop it! If you’re told to evacuate, evacuate.

    Staying behind just hinders firefighting efforts and adds extra workloads on folks that are already overwhelmed trying to protect your community.

    You’re not heroes, you’re selfish assholes.

  7. THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
    Kequeloose was a First Nations community on the banks of the Fraser River, through which the HBC brigades travelled every year. It stood at the base of the trail that led the HBC men over a mountain and on to Anderson's River, near #BostonBar #Writing #History #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys nancymargueriteanderson.com/ke

  9. HBC BRIGADES, JOURNAL OF AN EXPEDITION, SUMMER 1847:
    "At the present stage of water it would be difficult, if not impossible, to cross horses without constructing a bridge. Breadth of stream about 40 feet. Pass over the interjacent tongue of land & reach the Southern branch of the Stream #AndersonRiver These 2 branches unite a little below. Lost a good part of the day in making a bridge at the second branch, and in examining the neighbourhood. #BostonBar #HistoricJourney #AmWritingHistory

  11. CW: Southwestern :britishcolumbiaflag: 🔌🚙🔋 - EV mini roadtrip photos

    Took the car out for its first couple DC Fast Charger runs this afternoon, to the top of the #Coquihalla, then back around to #BostonBar and #HellsGate.

    The Britton Falls DCFC is free, but one of the two chargers is broken. The Boston Bar one cost about $7 for how much I put in.
