Good day, all God be with you. Peace be with you. Be strong, be kind, have courage stay in the present. Lets think of the future in the sense of how we can help others to have better lives. Thank you for your time and looking at the things that I created in my years now. now new faith which leads up to today. I want to as well share a story of one of my canoe trips June 1972. of which I shared to a SJSA alumni and his article
"... [T]his reminded me of my SJSA times as we "plied" allow the Fraser from Tête Jaune Cache to Prince George, then upstream avec Nechako to the shortest river around, the Nautley River. Through its short Rapids, we continue the length of Fraser Lake, trucked to Francois Lake, then to Oootsa Lake, Tahtsa Reach, and trucked to Kemano, a paddle throw on Kemano River to the Ocean, We finally Prince Rupert 30 some days later, two wooded 26 foot canoes, one with a patch after one of our canoes hit an underwater log jam and seconds later we were all underwater, scrambling for our lives. Luckily, none of us were pulled under what ever we hit, but we all surfaced. We spent a few days in Kemano getting the canoe fixed. memory is a little vague . Then paddled along the salt chuck to Prince Rupert. Have a nice day, thanks for the reflective moment. This picture , I believe is from #190's collection Ronald Alexander, Not sure of where this was taken, maybe the MacKenzie, which my twin brother did in 1972, I believe. I created this remake of stream Courier Du BOis because of an SJSA alumni post about the voyageurs, and to remind others of the good and bad that came from this form of trade, allegorically perhaps 🙂
