What do you think about my pic?  

Waterfalls - August 2023 When we stopped at the Toad River pullout, I was just going to take pictures of the river, but then I saw the waterfalls across the road. Because they are so high up they look really small, but zooming in a little shows that they are not insignificant. MWM

Anyone who’s been saying that Nick and Charlie are too sexually pure like “oh they’re teenage boys, they’d be having a lot of sex” has clearly never read the novella

Happy 90th Birthday, Willie!

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

Nelson Mandela

The War of 1812 was a conflict of global proportion and international impact. And yet, in a study of this nature it is the human element which reveals itself most clearly. Here we perceive an emotional dimension standing in crisp relief that in studies of a larger scale tends to lose definition and focus. We feel the loneliness and sense the frustration of life in a frontier garrison. We share the terror of a lonely watch on a darkened night; we fear for the safety of comrades. We rejoice in victory and lament in defeat.

Fort Nelson Landing Field, 1944

“Big Trucking Job Underway In the North,” Vancouver Sun. January 17, 1942. ---- 1500 Tons of Airport Material Being Moved Into Fort Nelson ---- Special to The Vancouver Sun DAWSON CREEK, Jan. 17. - A week of above freezing temperatures which has made the Peace River crossing at Taylor Flats hazardous, has failed to prevent the truck shipments of 1500 tons of airport material to Fort Nelson from going on its way north from railhead here. No major incident has been reported since the first convoy of 10 trucks left here on January 9. 

The temperature has not dropped below the freezing point since last Saturday, and the Taylor crossing fell under a warning order from the Department of Public Works at Pouce Coupe last Monday. There is still traffic across it, in apparent defiance of the warning. 

Air mall is coming down from Fort St. John airport on schedule. The late development has forced the heavy trucks, each bearing an average load of five tons of asphalt or other transport materials to unload on the south side of the Peace, cross empty, reload on the opposite side after teams of horses haul the freight across the hazardous crossing. The trucks are streaming out of here, ten at a time, dally. 

E. J. Spinney, who was awarded the $90,000 hauling contract from Western Construction Co., building the port for the Dominion Government, received word from Ottawa Thursday telling him to get the freight across the river thaw or no thaw. And that is what lie is doing. Since the freight started moving last Friday, it is estimated 200 tons have been trucked across the ice and on up to Sikanni about 200 miles from the Dawson Creek railhead. It is being cached there, as the road from that point to Fort Nelson Is not yet fit for travel. 

Between 50 and 75 trucks are being used for the work. Each convoy has a caboose lor sleep mg quarters and a cookhouse, Airport equipment and asphalt for airport runways are included in the freight.

Toad River - August 2023 The road from Fort Nelson to Laird Hot Springs, Yukon Territories, runs along the Toad River for a while. I took these images at a pullout that allowed a very good view of the river. MWM
