Summer students

Karia Anne and Brooklyn, the summer students from the Nicola Valley Community Arts Council here in Merritt have made bright the entrance to the lane on Voght Street across from the credit union going south towards the Coldwater River, with some murals of 🌹 flowers.

Ambiance brighter

That’s wonderful to hear about the murals of sunflowers! Sunflowers are beautiful and vibrant symbols of summer. They have bright yellow petals that resemble the sun, hence their name. These cheerful flowers are often associated with happiness, warmth, and positivity. Sunflowers can bring a sense of joy and optimism to any space, and it’s great that the summer students from the Nicola Valley Community Arts Council have chosen to include them in their murals. The image you provided showcases the incredible work they have done in brightening up the entrance to the lane on Voght Street. The sunflowers are sure to bring a smile to the faces of those who pass by. Keep up the great work! 🌻

Denial part of grief process.

Be good to your self,you suffered.

The process of grief has more then one stage and reactions maybe different at each stage. Interactions with other may seem right but remember your feelings are in a grief cycle and understood by all.

TGIF-care from the careful, only,no we have to demand… it…

Not everyone is responsible

Being a responsible user of any product or service is important, and this applies to Tabasco sauce as well. Here are a few tips for being a responsible Tabasco user:

  1. Moderate Usage: While Tabasco sauce can add a spicy kick to your meals, it’s important to use it in moderation. Too much can overpower the flavors of your dish.
  2. Respect Others’ Tastes: Not everyone enjoys spicy food, so it’s important to be considerate of others when using Tabasco sauce. If you’re serving a meal to a group of people, offer Tabasco sauce as a separate condiment, allowing individuals to add it according to their own preference.
  3. Store Properly: To ensure the longevity and quality of your Tabasco sauce, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources. This will help maintain its flavor.
  4. Dispose of Packaging Responsibly: When you finish a bottle of Tabasco sauce, be sure to recycle the packaging properly. Follow your local recycling guidelines to ensure it doesn’t end up in landfill.

Remember, responsible Tabasco use not only helps you enjoy your spicy meals, but also helps create a pleasant dining experience for others. Enjoy your meals responsibly and spice up your dishes in a considerate way! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

[Tabasco]: A brand of hot sauce made from Tabasco peppers that is popular for adding heat to various dishes.

Start out with hot sauce then go on in the responsibility chain until you’re the boss.

Take care, KDG

Freeze thaw dynamic

When ever there are freeze thaw conditions there is an increased risk of falling rock or avalanche. When driving in BC and in particular on secondary roads use extra caution under these conditions.

Record forecasts for avalanche this season, a real concern.
