Old meets new…

No flying saucers. But the Jetsons robot runs in the Coldwater hotel in Merritt BC.

Sounds of silence, this is good.

Listen to the peace present between the words of discourse.
some moments cannot be redeemed or taken back

The next horizon, is clear to some. But confused to others.

Thursday, tunes… 🎵🎵

Thursday is live, and so are you…

“The sixth of July, such a significant day in your life…”

Merritt was looking for a theme at one time,it remains a multi purpose economy.

The local people of Merritt are very much keen on contemporary country and western music, as well as Rock and Roll.The Desert inn in Merritt has a mural of “the King” on its southern side.The mural was done by Michele Loughery of Vernon, an acclaimed artist, at the hight of the Merritt Mountain music festival Era two decades ago. The mural has been edited to remove a 50’s Era chev car and a Shell gas pump.

Weather

Summer is here and it’s great to be near.

When friends and pals call guys and gals. To fun and we go innocent, is best reciprocate and contemplate.

Good times for all healthy wholesome things to find under the sun and then take some cool from afternoon cloud.We look for tomorrow we know it will come and our legacy of joy will stretch a pass from fear. Because we know in this life what is for dear and what is not worth our time and attention. Will see you at the convention. 🤠👀

Wow summer is great.

National Indigenous Day, Canada.

Today is national indigenous day in Canada, the day when we appreciate the fact that most every place on earth had an Indigenous population. The fact is the earth and nature created both types of peoples including colonials ,by moving them from place to place, by hunger, distress over weather, earthquakes, volcanos, war and pestilence.

Be happy, you exist instead of another because those before stayed or went at the right time did it to outdo the calamities ensuing

In this respect have a thoughtful NID.

Water

The City of Merritt has not put restrictions on water as they would normally on May 1st, instead they are relying, on provincial drought regulations which at this writing do not have any restrictions on the two rivers in Merritt.
