"The heat can remain underground for several days, or even weeks. Then as the weather dries out and heats up, they (the fires) can flare up to become full-fledged wildfires," the service said."
My husband is out in the Okanagan desert, collecting minerals. The fires between me and him started in the last 24 hours. There are more predicted. I am hoping he can get home safe.
Summer is not road trip/camping time, anymore.

BC Ferries requires a change in governance. From the time it was semiprivatized in 2003, BC Ferries has been unaccountable & nontransparent. BC Ferries ordered four ships from China despite other options being available. China is a lowwage country with lower employment standards, lower environmental standards and lower safety standards than Canada and it's imposing tariffs on roughly $4 billion of imported Canadian canola, seafood and pork. #china #canada #bc #ferries https://www.thestar.com/business/carney-should-suspend-federal-loan-to-bc-ferries-for-purchase-of-chinese-ships/article_c707c698-1f2a-4c10-9c70-0f1d963d141b.html
BC town which was levelled by forest fires is yet again at risk of being burned to the ground by forest fires. (Just a suggestion, but maybe don't build a town there again.) This week marks the fourth anniversary of a deadly wildfire that destroyed the British Columbia village of Lytton, and the community is again under threat, with a nearby outofcontrol wildfire setting off evacuation orders and alerts.

Lost Dog #Cranbrook
This beauty went running off when she was being brought in to the Cranbrook SPCA Centre. She is very shy of humans so please do not approach, but contact the SPCA if spotted. She does love other dogs so that may bring her out. Thanks!
