A Visit with Friends...

Having 2 days off has been a nice break, yesterday I visited with friends who have moved to Kitimat, renting a nice little rancher. 

When the Kitimat town site was built it was laid out with walking areas so you don't have to walk on any roads. There is a lot of parks and green space, the most I have ever seen, it is a very relaxing place.

Sunday Summer Sun...

A second Sunday in Terrace. Last trip to town it was snowing, this trip it was sunny and very warm even a little sunburny. This time  I did a lot of walking. Checked out the railway bridge, very curved and unique, as well a one lane road bridge beside it, a truly a very scenic area.

There were a lot of these birds in this tree, this is only a few of the flock.

A better shot then I could take showing the curve

A Really Big Project...

I always wanted to see the North West Coast, when I got the call for the new state of the art Aluminium  Smelter I had to check it out. It is a two and a half year job six week in and one out ( not a big fan of that kind of shift ). We have Sundays off and I went to Terrace to relax and pick up some rain gear and what not.

The top two are in Terrace and the 1951 my all time favorite is in Courtenay

When logging was King Terrace

North Coast is calling...

It really wasn't what I had planed. I had phoned to ask about work and was told not for a month or more. Lots of time to get the yard and garden in shape, being the type to work on several projects at a time there is a lot on the go... two days later two calls for work came in now the push is on, I fly out Tuesday and it is a start of a new adventure...
