River Road


This was the original main street in Maple Ridge. Back then, most travel in and out of town was done by boat.
These turn of the century builings are on River road, across from the wharf on the Fraser River.
The larger building is the Billy Miner Pub and beside it is a liquor store.
They were bathed in the glow of a spectacular sunset which I will post here soon.

Maui in Maple Ridge?

This view of Alouette Lake reminds me of Lahina in Maui. This tall narrow mountain is very like the scenery in that tropical place.

Skywatch Friday


These boots were made for ....hanging on telephone lines?

I often see shoes flung

up on the overhead wires. These look like good workboots. Set off so nicely against a blue Maple Ridge sky.
