500 million dollars BC Hydro. This project is going to be done by BC Hydro. Although their name Hydro connotates the fact that they own every drop of water in British Columbia as a monopoly for power generation. They are expanding wind farms and power smart are in their resume.

Environmental assessment waived
The company has just been directed to do everything as efficiently as possible and they’re waiving the environmental assessment. Which may in one case be reasonable because of the wind and its passiveness. However, they are notorious for bird kills and I would think that would be part of the environment. More on this later we hope. Maybe we can get a quote from theNicola Naturalist Society Incorporated. Alan Berger president.
Alan Burger and the Nicola naturalist Society Incorporated are out today doing their Christmas bird count. Nearly three decades of service…Humming bird.
The Nicola Naturalist Society INC is having its bird count on Saturday the 14th of December in Merritt BC. This will be the 26th annual count by volunteer members. The stats are compiled and sent to the Audubon Society.
This pyror beetle showed up after the wildfires of 2023. I believe it was anyway. It was photographed on a wooden edge of an apartment building. These beetles live on burnt wood according to sources.
This fella had an unexpected day off a year ago or 2 years ago and he decided with the fresh snow that he could do something at the river, so he went down and he sledded what he found as far as recyclable stuff back into the economy.

Here’s a vibrant image of a fall day in British Columbia: Would you like to see a photo of a specific location in British Columbia, or perhaps a different activity?
Forty five days of fall to come, till 1:19 AM Saturday 21/24.
The Merritt and District Chamber of Commerce is long in the tooth here in our South Central interior British Columbia town /city.
We have observed over time the effectiveness of this small organization + its worthiness by being linked to numbers of other organizations such as local government, provincial government hydro. And anybody? Trying to make a buck in a livelihood in our country, CC work.
Our life here above 600 m would not be the same without the hard-working volunteers and business people that come together in this medium.
We recall that the first bit of fiber optic cable came to the local chamber of Commerce office when it was located in the Grand hotel on Garcia and Nicola in Merritt.
Generations have come and gone and had their time and got their hands dirty in the Commerce and construction of the business community here.

The wisdom of ending cycles + the soul’s personal growth 💕 under scrutiny.
November 1st
There will be A new moon on November 1st, but because it’s on the opposite side it will be dark and not visible at that time. The time between this new moon and when the full moons face will be fully illuminated is the dark Moon.
This is a good time for you to end some things and begin some other things for your personal growth. We recommend that you respect this opportunity and take full advantage of it. KDG
What to think
A dark moon, or a new moon, is a phase where the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making its illuminated side facing away from us. As a result, it appears completely dark in the night sky. Here’s how you can view a dark moon: * Timing is Key: * A new moon occurs roughly every 29.5 days. * You won’t be able to see the moon with the naked eye during this phase. * Look for Earthshine: * Sometimes, a faint glow can be seen on the dark side of the moon. This is called “earthshine” and is caused by sunlight reflecting off the Earth and illuminating the moon’s surface. * To observe earthshine, you’ll need a clear, dark sky and possibly binoculars or a telescope to enhance the view. * Stargazing Opportunities: * A new moon offers excellent conditions for stargazing. * With no moonlight to interfere, you can see fainter stars, constellations, and celestial objects more clearly. Remember, a dark moon isn’t about seeing the moon itself, but rather about the celestial wonders that become visible in its absence.
The estimates in some people’s view. Is that to clean up garbage in that Pacific trough there? There would be a great amount of it, a significant amount of it and some people view all of it for what the United States spends on Halloween
