Two species of beautiful bluebirds nest in the Nicola Valley – Mountain Bluebirds (Sialia currucoides) and Western Bluebirds (Sialia mexicana). Both species suffered precipitous declines in the mid- to late-1900s due to logging of old forest and streamside Cottonwoods that provided nest cavities, and the invasion of the introduced competitor European Starling. Today most of our bluebirds nest in nest-boxes provided on fence-posts in suitable open habitat. The Vancouver Avian Research Centre runs the bluebird nest-box program in the Nicola Valley using local volunteers – monitoring and cleaning the nest-boxes, recording breeding success and banding the chicks for long-term research. Carol Holmes and Susan Newton are local volunteers with this program and will describe the work being done to conserve bluebirds in our area and beyond.

Add to the culture of the BC interior with your best effort anyway.! There is a link in the graphic above to the troops program.
Grease is at the Sagebrush venue, one of two the company has, we have not reviewed it and this not an add. WCT did not activate the AI paragraphs. No drama intended.
The original 1978 release of the film Grease became “the most popular musical comedy of all time,” however it’s ending in a car accident has a subjectivity to it.

Lets see what my AI has to say about this issue…

Despite setbacks and opposition, supporters of the bid believe that it could be an opportunity for Indigenous reconciliation and for the city to showcase its beauty and hospitality on a global stage once again.

1 live birth + 2 nurture and nature, at 1000 to the 10th power thoughts,decisions, and stored Hope.
Minus outcomes and inputs divided by failure times success to the square route of 2 times acceptance.
Equals the irrational integer of who you say you are when you're not intimidated.
Minus delusion not considered with conclusion.
So who are you, a happy wandering scribe writing to yourself, a serious driver of commerce or maybe a perfect fool? Drive on the right side of the road of life and say your go and do your say and keep your joy to your house and that is who you is. KDG
