I appreciate the kind words, and I truly would reccomend the experience to anyone.
you learn a lot about your community and yourself.
Probably not.
The posts I did above were a kind of debrief I suppose, a clearing of thought.
I truly think that I'm more interested in social movement as described above.
I'll probably leave politics to the politicians.
I find it nice place to live and the people are friendly. Cliquey? I found Quesnel more cliquey when I lived there, but there are a lot of deep family roots.
My experience with Vanderhoof is many years old. At the time it seemed that a few families ran the place. My family was there because my dad was a bit of a straw boss with the company building the Kenny dam.
I guess my most powerful memory of Vanderhoof was losing the chain on my sisters bike coming down the Prince George hill. In those days the highway was a gravel road. When I dropped the bike near the bottom of the hill I think I lost close to a square foot of skin..
Yeah, mega-ouch. The skin I lost was from two knees, an elbow, the back of one hand. All places that bend so it took a long time to heal.
Hockey and Rugby. Played hockey for about twenty years and coached hockey for another fifteen or so. The rugby I played was mainly recreational.............When it stopped being recreational, I quit. The worst injury I had was to take the cartilages out of both knees, and I did that skiing.
