That is so awesome ! You know I lived in Nanaimo 26 years ago and thats where my second son was born ! His father and I entered the silly boat races a couple of times ! What fun that was back in the day ! We since moved long time ago to Coquitlam and now were in Kelowna British Columbia Canada! About 4 hours east of Vancouver! But i will always miss the ocean! To bad the damp rainy weather is hard on my arthritis! Its much dryer here ! I will follow you , nice to have someone on steemit from B.C! Welcome ! And steem on ! 😊😉👍
I trained as a welder in Kelowna, back in 69-70... too hot for this California boy...came to the Island in 1973 and fell in love with the place!
What a small world ! Thats really great ! my ex spouse / boyfriend was a welder , he trained in Vancouver. Somewhere . He still lives in Coquitlam! But I really liked Nanaimo when I lived there my ex husband now passed on , his mom and dad lived in Nanaimo a long time , they had a corner store on Nichole Street called M& F Market . Just up from the Patricia hotel The Pats ! lol ! If thats still there ! Well heading home to bed , i blog from work , security guard, graveyards , good luck on steemit ! 👍😉
