  2. I am seeing more use of the #fediverse and #mastodon in my local area and hope to see it grow.

    Sorting out the most effective #hashtags to use could help.

    Home for me is #QualicumBeach but does #qualicum do the job?

    There is more than one #parksville which may be why #ParksvilleBC is also used.

    Both the more popular #vancouverisland and the more efficient #vanisle are in use. #Oceanside has uses.

    Does #BC work or should we use #britishcolumbia?

    Any thoughts? Are there others?

  3. There is a former elementary school in Qualicum Beach that has thrived for several years as community facility known as Qualicum Commons. It is in danger of closing. qualicumcommons.ca

  4. Some good news.

    "The $8.5-million purchase of the 105-acre golf course will officially change hands in late November, and the town is planning for another round of public engagement, to begin next year, on some of the development that might happen on golf course lands."

    "Additionally, the Christopher Foundation has committed a $2.125-million cash donation towards the purchase, on condition that about 40 acres of disused fairways on the eastern portion of the golf course be kept as parkland."

  5. Photo recently taken of a small plant that managed to grow on a mossy rock surrounded by rushing water in the Big Qualicum River. Proof that life can thrive in challenging environment... in case you needed some encouragement today. 💚

  6. Last All Candidates meeting that I know of in the Courtenay-Alberni riding. It is taking place at the Alberni District Secondary School.

    Starts at 2PM. You can see a livestream at the link.

    This is a regular fixture in our local political scene for all elections. The students always come very prepared with excellent questions!

  7. I like taking Hilliers Rd just after the #bchwy19 and #bchwy4 interchange. This used to be the old "shortcut" to go to Qualicum before the Inland Island Highway happened. Love this farm. Picturesque all seasons of the year.

  8. There was many types of #ClamShells & much #diversity of beautiful & edible #seaweeds washed up on highbanks, post windstorm.
    There's over 100 different types of seaweeds found along the coasts of Vancouver Island. There's 6 types of clams found on beaches of the island.

  9. Winter waves watching.
    I sat under the big cedar tree in lawn chair & had some hot tea while absorbing ocean energies. My big parka kept me warm. It's quite dry underneath the big cedar - large tree canopy is a natural umbrella.

    Mom's taking a long soak in hot mineral bath & listening to old school Vietnamese music.
