By the By pyro beetle

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.

Where else are you going to be?…

This is not an ad  it’s an opportunity to comment.

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.

Weather is to be respected
Voting time in BC

This atmospheric River showed up around election day. Is the universe trying to tell somebody something? Not how to vote we don’t think. But we need to have a life and we have to be careful with our stuff 😔

Fraud not withstanding risk is better underwritten by this vehicle. So, the bubble of hard assets (oil reserves) that we are beginning to enjoy is timely for we all. Don’t waste this moment… Use it to transform ideas to near tangibles that will endure to our children’s children. 

Update

Peak oil reached by 2030.
