Salmon Arm, British Columbia

Skihist Provincial Park, British Columbia

Glaciers in the Canadian Rockies melt and feed the rivers, streams, and lakes here, turning them a bright unnatural-looking turquoise green hue due to the silt it contains. When early explorers here described this, it was initially assumed that they were just making it all up.


Lytton, British Columbia - Siska Indian Band internet cafe

It's been a wonderful ride so far. Will share more when I'm not limited to 15 minutes' internet access. (Currently using the internet cafe computer at the Siska Indian Band art gallery.)

Hope, British Columbia - Real maple syrup

We stopped for a delicious breakfast of hash browns and pancakes with real Canadian maple syrup. MMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!

The pic didn't come out very clearly, but this bottle of maple syrup came from a company that has been making this delicious stuff since the 1800's. Wow!
