Coldwater river

The Coldwater river in Merritt is low and exposing the river rocks. We hope that’s not what the Rock-in river music festival meant. The festival hosted in part By Kenny Hess will have a performance on the Coldwater river the last weekend in July. https://rockinriverfest.com/

There are still many pools in the river that are pleasant at this writing.

The Temple of Diana at Ephesus is destroyed by arson. (The temple was destroyed four times in its history.)

 

Motor cycle music

The Nicola Valley will be having a music festival this summer in August ,on the 21,22 ,23rd and 24th at the old Merritt Mountain Music festival grounds. There is a veterans preference and they say you don’t need to have a motor cycle to come.  The site shows the controversial pastime of sitting in the river cooling off with more then just the river water.

The bus of the organizer has been seen about Merritt many times in the last weeks.
