“We’re going to have to hold council meetings in another location,” he said. “Right now, the public works yard gives us some capacity to work out of, but that’s not going to be sufficient over time.”

CRAIG LINDSAY West Kootenay Advertiser

Grand Forks Fire Rescue responded to a fire call Thursday, Sept. 19 at approximately 5:30 a.m. and found the main floor of City Hall engulfed in flames.

The fire department had its first truck on scene several minutes after the call and had a crew putting water on the fire immediately.

“It was mainly contained to the front part of the building,” said Kevin McKinnon, deputy fire chief.

Charged is: Andre Robert CONN, 31-yearsold of Grand Forks, B.C. He has been remanded in custody to appear in Nelson Court on Tuesday, Sept. 24 to answer to charges of; Break and Enter, Arson, Possession of incendiary materials, Possession of break-in Instruments.

There are no cost estimates on the damage and there were no injuries reported.

McKinnon said he did not think there was much water damage in the basement where many historical documents were kept.

Once the authorities have completed their investigation of the build-

JIM SINCLAIR WKA Editor

The International Day of Peace was observed and commemorated Saturday, September 21 at Castlegar’s Mir Centre for Peace, located at Selkirk College.

A strong turnout was on hand as the Kootenay Region Branch of the United Nations Association in Canada (KRUNA) event transpired from 6 to 7 p.m. in the gazebo outside the centre building.

The assemblage then moved indoors and upstairs to hear a detailed outline of an effort they all believe in.

Spokesperson Tiffany Easthom, a clearly driven, inspired representative of the Nonviolent Peace Force gave a presentation to about 60 people.

The Canadian-born Easthom is based in the world’s newest country, South Sudan. She has previous experience in locations including Sri Lanka and Myanmar, and last year was recognized by Nonviolent Peace Force as Civilian Peacekeeper of the Year.

Narrating a visual program packed with images and information, she gave an impassioned account of what it’s like to be

Another form of support welcomed by Non-Violent Peace Force, is financial, a point that was made to the crowd before the evening’s conclusion.

in a war zone, and how straightforward it can be to diffuse hostilities and get rivals ready to consider ending their fight.

She described how predictable conflicts can be, and how productive efforts to end them can be if they’re carried out correctly.

With the number of hotspots in the world and the depressing regularity of atrocities committed against innocent civilians, the idea of effective, unarmed peacekeeping may seem an impossible dream to some… but those people would feel encouraged by the message of the Non-Violent Peace Force… mainly because of well-documented, proven results, which relate to a combination of courage, energy, patience and caution.

Easthom wrapped

up her presentation and opened the floor to questions, the event lasted about an hour.

“We’re looking for people, ideally, not fresh out of school.

We say 25 or older.”

Tiffany Easthom “It’s unfathomable to me to think of you people with no protection and there’s all this violence around you,” said B.C. Southern Interior Member of Parliament Alex Atamanenko. “How do you deal with that… do you ever think, ‘I’m going to go out today and may never come back?’”

“A person only gets one chance to be a hu-

man shield,” replied Easthom, describing the lengths to which the personnel will go to keep up a record that has seen 10 years go by with no casualties. She stressed the fact that team members will not willingly be present in areas where shooting is going on.

Other stats indicate the effectiveness of teams like the 125-strong contingent in South Sudan, in terms of the dramatic drop in numbers of victims – of killings, beatings, rapes, etc.

Easthom also referred to the United Nations, with a huge budget and large presence in trouble spots like South Sudan… and its corresponding preoccupation with security.

Easthom was asked about the level of her

Price break for FortisBC gas CONTRIBUTED With files from WKA Castlegar staff

FortisBC has received approval from the BC Utilities Commission (BCUC) to decrease the natural gas commodity rates for most customers starting October 1. Piped propane customers living in Revelstoke will see an increase in their commodity rate.

“Natural gas prices have fallen since spring. The mild summer on the East Coast resulted in a reduced continental demand for power which is often generated by natural gas,” said Cynthia Des Brisay, vice president of energy supply and resource development.

“Despite the fact that natural gas prices are still near their lowest levels in a decade, as we approach the winter heating season, we encourage our customers to continue using energy wisely, helping keep costs down.”

Natural gas customers are continuing to benefit from lower production costs and increased supply. At the same time, low propane supplies and strengthening oil prices are resulting in increased propane prices.

Customers will see changes effective October 1, 2013, including in the following communities:

Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, Interior, North and the Kootenays Residential customers will see a decrease to the commodity rate of $0.641 per gigajoule (GJ). This results in a decrease of approximately $61 per year for an average residential customer in the Lower Mainland using approximately 95 GJ.

“We encourage our customers to continue using energy wisely, helping keep costs down.”

Cynthia Des Brisay, FortisBC Customer Choice program participants will not be affected by changes to the commodity rate.

Rates will remain unchanged from current levels for customers, including residential, on Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast and Powell River effective October 1, 2013.

“Castlegar (and West Kootenay) residents are included in the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, Interior, North and the Kootenays area of our ser-

vice territory, so they will see the average annual decrease of $61 as well,” said Michael Allison, FortisBC corporate communications advisor in an email. Allison also stated that the rates are the same for residential and commercial customers. Every three months, FortisBC reviews natural gas and propane commodity rates with the BCUC in order to make sure rates passed on to customers cover the cost of purchasing the gas on their behalf. Factors affecting the market price of natural gas and propane in North America include weather, supply and demand, and economic conditions. Propane prices are also influenced by global oil markets.

FortisBC does not profit on natural gas commodity charges; the price FortisBC pays for the commodity (the gas itself) is a flow through cost, which means FortisBC purchases natural gas on behalf of its customers and passes the costs through to customers without markup.

Customers pay what FortisBC pays for the gas itself.

Rates are reviewed each quarter based on a forecast of what costs to purchase gas will be over the following 12 months, based on forward prices set by the market.

Theatre perception assessed Trail staff West Kootenay Advertiser

The future of the Charles Bailey Theatre looks bright if feedback from a community survey is any indication.

Theatre front house manager Nadine Tremblay released results from a survey that asked Greater Trail residents, patrons, business owners and the general public what they’d like from the facility.

The 475 responses have now helped form a business plan that will recommend how the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) can efficiently run its theatre.

“I was sort of surprised to hear that some people didn’t even know what the Charles Bailey Theatre was and I was happy to receive the whole gamut of reactions from rants that explained every little thing about how bad the theatre is to how grateful and happy people are to have the theatre and its programming available to them,” said Tremblay.

Results show that 28 per cent of theatre-goers attend a show three to five times a year and 24 per cent make a point of going five times a year. Tremblay attributes this to the Trail Society of the Performing Arts’ performance series subscription of eight shows a year, which has over 350 annual members.

The community at large strongly supports the theatre, as indicated with 82 per cent of patrons thinking the theatre is “very important to the community” and 73 per cent of Greater Trail public feeling the same.

The theatre fell short when performers were asked about their experience. Most renters surveyed

were somewhat satisfied, 50 per cent, with their last rental and half noted that the theatre is too expensive.

The 764-seat facility is rented out for $500 to non-profits and goes up to $1,000 from there, not including the cost of lighting and sound.

Air Quality Residents in Trail have a new watchdog group ready to track down what is up in the air.

The city averages six calls each month from people upset about smoke billowing out of the stacks, or about a strange “taste” and odour in the air.

In response to those concerns, the Air Quality technical working group was formed at the Trail Health and Environment committee (THEC) meeting last week.

“We’ve had quite a few complaints about the stacks, fugitive dust and other conditions this year,” said Mayor Dieter Bogs, THEC chair. “The issues are both health and aesthetic related. This group came about to gain better understanding of air quality issues for the community as a whole.”

The working group was formed, instead of a committee, to allow for open discussion on issues that may be sensitive and to allow ad hoc members to join the meetings without constraint.

West Trail resident Ron Joseph, chair of the group, said that he became concerned at the apparently worsening smoke conditions from Teck.

“The group hopes to aid the process of reducing the overall emissions from the plant in Trail,” he explained. “It is my hope that the group will be able to spur on much needed visual improvements and the air quality.”

Dealing with Loss

Borderline Lumber Service

Finding support – a way to heal the pain CARA brady Vernon Morning Star

Originally Published Sept. 9, 2013.

A request has been made that this article be reprinted in the West Kootenay Advertiser. The request came from a Boundary resident who has attended sessions described below and found value and comfort in them.

The article was published in advance of World Suicide Prevention day, Sept. 10.

Suicide can be the loneliest death for those left behind. Kim Cunliffe lost her son, Darin Cunliffe, to suicide three years ago.

“He was incredibly happy, loving and funny, popular with everyone and involved in sports. He had a few difficulties with normal life challenges but he was just a regular teenager. He was everyone’s smile every day,” she said.

“It was a complete shock. There were no signs. I still look at his photo and think that of all people, he was the least likely to do something like this. I don’t think he understood the finality of it.”

The support of family and close friends helped Cunliffe even though she felt frozen, like she was putting on a mask each day.

“Family and friends held me up when I couldn’t hold myself up. My other children became my strength and my purpose,” she said. “Suicide is a grief unlike any other grief. I have lost other family members but it was not like this. I felt alone, even stigmatized. I realized I needed more help, and when I heard about a grief retreat specifically for people who have lost someone to suicide, I knew I had to go.”

The Sunrise Grief Retreat Society, which also holds retreats for other grief losses, is a non-profit society which offers the re-

treats with professional facilitators, many of them volunteers.

Cunliffe attended the four-day retreat last fall.

“At first, I felt unsure and anxious but I knew it was exactly where I should be. I had so many questions and unresolved feelings. I knew I had been a good mother but I should have known, even though there were no signs.

That was one of the hardest things,” she said.

Barb Schimpl, one of the retreat facilitators, said grief for suicide is one of the most complicated griefs.

“There can be more guilt, shame, blame and anger. There was no opportunity to say goodbye and it feels like total rejection.

The survivors are left with so many unanswerable questions,” she said.

Cunliffe knew the retreat would be part of the healing that would allow her to remember her son in a healthy way, honour his life and find a way to help others.

“I felt safe in this beginning of my walk through the wilderness to find a sense of peace. I was so relieved to find that I was not alone and I keep the connections with the people I met there. Family and friends are vital but there is a completely different feeling there,” she said. “There is fear. You don’t want to make that call but it’s the best call you ever make.”

She benefited from

the group sessions and the expressive therapies with health professionals, as well as the massage therapy, healing touch and mindfulness meditation available to participants.

“The healing touch was so amazing and powerful. I felt connected and released. It was a gift to my soul.

There’s such compassion in the staff. I also liked the letter writing to the ones we had lost,” said Cunlifffe.

“I’m not sure what direction I’m going at times but it’s forward with my toolbox in hand and I don’t have to walk alone.”

People who are interested in attending the Sunrise Grief Retreat for those who have experienced a loss from suicide (Nov. 1-5) should contact Schimpl at bgreifretreat@gmail.com or 250-307-7850. She will talk with people to help them decide if it is the right time for them to attend. For more information, see www.sunrisegriefretreat.org.

Anyone who has had a loss through suicide can also consider attending the Healing After Suicide Loss support group hosted by the Suicide Prevention Committee of Vernon. Support groups are facilitated by trained professionals and peers and offer eight weeks of weekly support meetings at no cost.

“We felt there has been a need in the community and we were able to get the training this spring,”

said Betty Bates, facilitator, with Sharon Durant, of the support groups.

“All of us who did the training felt it was profound and that we could bring that feeling of a safe place to come and share stories and healing to the groups. Each experience is personal and people can participate at their own pace.”

The groups will include expression exercises, writing and art, empathetic listening, all in a non-judgmental atmosphere. There will be information on what is normal in grief after suicide.

“Suicide can be such a silent grief with so much stigma and misconception around it. Survivors

can feel very alone.

Sometimes they find the second year after is even harder than the first but that is individual too.

The support groups do not support professional therapy but are a healthy addition on a journey of healing.

It’s a real honour to be able to offer this to the community,” said Bates.

For more information about the Healing After Suicide Loss support groups, running weekly Sept.

25 to Nov. 14, and to pre-register, call Durant at 250-542-3114 (ext. 212).

Linking Names and Places

CPR, lawsuits stymied Castlegar’s early growth greg nesteroff West Kootenay Advertiser

Thirtieth in a nearly alphabetical series on West Kootenay/Boundary place names.

Last week we began looking at the origin of Castlegar, named by founder Edward Mahon after his Irish ancestral home.

We left off in 1897 just as Mahon had laid out the townsite and closed a deal with mining magnate Augustus Heinze to develop Castlegar together, with Heinze contributing land from his railway grant.

Mahon didn’t know Heinze was simultaneously negotiating with someone else: early the following year, he sold his smelter, railway charter, and interest in Castlegar to the Canadian Pacific Railway.

The company wasn’t known for joint real estate ventures and things quickly bogged down.

In 1899 Mahon sold all even-numbered blocks in the townsite to the railway, further ensuring any development would require

their agreement.

To make matters worse, a portion was carved up for the approach to the railway bridge across the Columbia River. Yet Mahon doesn’t appear to have given up yet, for in 1901 he set aside a couple of lots for a hotel that was never built.

The bridge’s completion

the following year spurred the early growth of what was then known as Castlegar Junction, with the first buildings sprouting up around the railway station in the portion of town that came from Heinze’s land grant. Mahon’s contribution to the townsite remained undeveloped.

The stalemate persisted for another decade, during which Castlegar was the subject of litigation between Heinze and the CPR. Finally in 1912, Mahon transferred his remaining lots to his brother John. By now, he had moved to Vancouver where his business pursuits proved much more successful — including the purchase of the Capilano suspension bridge.

His involvement in the Castlegar townsite was already long forgotten, for when James White of the Geographic Survey of Canada inquired in 1905 about the origin of Castlegar’s name, postmaster William J. Farmer responded: “The place called Castlegar was called into existence some two years ago by the CPR, who made a junction here, previous to which time, there was no settlement. From what I can gather, the name originated from some building which was erected at the time of railway construction, resembling in some way the structure called Castle Garden, where emigrants land in New York; anyway, I fear from an historical point of view, Castlegar is far too new to interest anyone.”

For more on the development of the Castlegar townsite, see Walter Volovsek’s The Green Necklace: The Vision Quest of Edward Mahon.

Introduction to flight Brayden Kupowsky, left, and Shael Huska give a safety and orientation briefing about a glider to a group of cadets at the Trail Airport on Saturday, Sept. 21. Each cadet was provided an opportunity to fly in the gliders.

Marvin Beatty

This adventurous scribe is sold on soaring marvin Beatty West Kootenay Advertiser

On Saturday, Sept.

21 about a dozen air cadets turned out at the Trail Airport to take to the sky in two gliders as part of their aviation training.

It was an overcast and somewhat drizzly morning but the excitement was palpable as the boys and girls spent some time learning about the two long-winged gliders being inspected and prepared on the runway.

“When a cadet reaches the age of 16, they can apply for a glider pilot scholarship,” said Lt./ CO Jim Hossack of the 531 Trail Air Cadets.

“To apply for this they must take a ground school course to study for the entrance exam, which we offer for free at the Selkirk Aviation College in Castlegar. Then they must pass a province-wide qualifying examination in early January, go through a review board, and then have Transport Canada medical certification.

If they are selected, they go through a six-week training course to get their Glider Pilots license.”

The squadron graciously offered flights to this reporter in both the glider (a Schweizer SGS 2-33) and

the tow plane (a Cessna 182), something eagerly accepted.

The gliders, built in the 1970s, each weigh a little over 270 kilograms and passengers can’t be insulted when asked how much they tip the scales at… such things are important when flying without the benefit of engines or natural wings.

First though, cadets Shael Huska and

Brayden Koprowsky walked everyone through an orientation, carefully explaining how and precisely where to hold the relatively fragile gliders while moving them on and off the runway.

The group listened intently while the two explained how to “call the wing” and what signals to watch for before the tow plane

Once the safety briefing and instructions were concluded, the cadets organized into small work teams to help launch each flight with a qualified pilot and cadet aboard.

Three of the cadets had not flown in the gliders before; one such person was Jayden Bowcock who recounted what it was

like to get up in the air.

“We turned the glider around and we practiced holding it steady and keeping the wings even,” said Bowcock. “Then I learned how to go down and up and make turns.”

He said he couldn’t quite remember every detail of what some maneuvers were ...

Sports Trail Smokies are loaded with distinctive Kootenay flavour

jim bailey

West Kootenay Advertiser

The 2013-14 incarnation of the Trail Smoke Eaters may look familiar to many West Kootenay hockey fans.

The Smoke Eaters have cultivated a distinct West Kootenay identity by signing players who grew up and played their minor hockey in the region.

The Smokies started the season with a roster rife with Kootenarians that included Jesse Knowler of Castlegar, Adam Wheeldon and Linden Horswill of Nelson, Mitch Foyle of Fruitvale, and Scott Davidson, Jake Lucchini, and Riley Brandt of Trail.

Throw in affiliate players Jamie Vlanich of Trail, and Rossland’s Archie McKinnon and you almost have a full team.

While no BCHL junior team is required to sign local athletes, there has been perhaps a more conscious effort by the Smoke Eaters to identify and sign Koo-

Castlegar’s Jesse Knowler (14) and Nelson’s Adam Wheeldon (right) are two of several Kootenay-born players on the Trail Smoke Eaters’ roster this season.

Jim Bailey

tenay talent over the past two years.

“It’s important to have local guys,” said Wheeldon, the Smoke Eaters’ captain. “Obviously for the fans, seeing the local talent out there is awesome, but

also for billet homes, they can take less billets, so yes having local guys really helps us out.”

The 2011-12 season was a recent low for local talent and saw just Luke Bertolucci of Mon-

trose and Wheeldon lace them up for the Orange and Black. Coincidently, it was also one of Trail’s worst seasons, collecting just 11 wins on the year.

A return to respectability accompanied an increase

in familiar faces last year with Davidson, Lucchini, Foyle, and Knowler joining the team, in addition to Wheeldon.

Not only does the presence of local talent on a team generally put more fans in the seats, but, as Wheeldon had touched upon, it is also a substantial savings in billet costs.

However, sometimes the added pressure of playing in front of a home crowd can be distracting.

Occasionally players will choose to play away from home, whether they are looking for a new life experience or simply believe the ice is keener on the other side.

After three years of playing with the Smoke Eaters, Travis St. Denis requested a trade, much to the ire of many Smokie fans. But in the end, it turned out to be a great decision for St. Denis as he helped the Penticton Vees to an RBC Cup championship, received a scholarship to Quinnipiac University, and in his

Dirt & Gears

freshman season made it to the Frozen Four and played in the NCAA championship game in April.

“It’s been unbelievable,” St. Denis told the Times after winning the Junior A championship. “I mean its been a roller coaster, with ups and downs all over the place. Starting my junior career in Trail, 16-years old, I couldn’t ask to start in a better place than my hometown. I think getting traded to Penticton, moving away from home and experienceing that life, it’s just made me a stronger person over all.”

But for guys like Wheeldon being a Smokie is indeed something special, and for the rest of the Smokie faithful, cheering for a son, friend, or even just a familiar name makes the experience that much more rewarding.

“The guys that grew up here, their dream is to play for the Smokies when they’re older,” said Wheeldon. “So that’s really cool.”

The regional district is hosting a forum this week to discuss and plan for climate change in the Boundary.

Called “Flood, Fire & Famine: Forum on Building Resilience to Global Climate Change in the Boundary,” the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) will host the forum Sept. 26 in Christina Lake.

The forum will be hosted by Grace McGregor, chair of the Kettle River stakeholder advisory committee and RDKB Area C director.

A panel of experts on climate, food systems, economics, ecosystems and watersheds (Greg Utzig, Roly Russell, Sandy Mark, Ryan Durand and Graham Watt) will share information on climate change impacts in the Boundary, and lead group discussions about how to build regional resilience to climate change.

“We know this is an issue that will affect the whole world as well as every corner of the Boundary,” said McGregor. “How can we work together to develop regional solutions to these challenges?”

The regional district invites

people from multiple sectors, including public works staff, members of business, industrial, forestry, stewardship and tourism organizations, and First Nations.

There are also a number of spaces for the general public who can register at https:// boundaryclimateresilience. eventbrite.ca/.

This forum is a free event made possible by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary and RDKB electoral Area C. It includes a dinner featuring local food. Contact Graham Watt (plan@kettleriver. ca) for more information, or visit http://kettleriver.ca.

My pilot in the glider, Fraser Neave, said the cool, damp air made the gliders sink much faster than they would in the dry heat of summer and the duration of each flight was around 10 to 15 minutes.

Neave received his license in 2007 when he was just 16 and effortlessly recounted a number of facts and details about the aircraft while guiding the craft through a tear-dropped flight path that started at about

Hank’s Story: The BC SPCA’s Trail Regional Branch is hoping the public can help Hank. A lovable German shepherd mix, Hank has skin issues and ear problems that need treatment.

A special diet for his skin issues is likely required, as well as medication and treatment for his ears, in order to get him to a comfortable state.

“We’d love to be able to do some allergy tests and other tests to get a better idea of what Hank’s problems are,” says SPCA Trail Regional branch manager Danielle Jackman. “All medications, tests and food could cost between $300 to more than $1,000.”

Hank still needs a loving home and an understanding owner, but before that can happen, it is critical he get the treatment he needs for his skin and ears. Jackman notes his problems could be chronic and require ongoing care, but tests are needed to determine whether that is the case.

If you can help Hank and other animals like him in need at the Trail Regional Branch, please call 250-368-5910, drop by the branch at 7700 Highway 3B in Trail, or go to spca.bc.ca/trail and click on the ‘donate’ button.

The BC SPCA is a non-profit organization funded primarily by public donations.

Our mission is to prevent cruelty and to promote the welfare of animals through a wide range of services, including cruelty investigations, emergency rescue and treatment, sheltering and adoption of homeless and abused animals, humane education, advocacy, farm animal welfare, spay/neuter programs, and wildlife rescue and rehabilitation.

Horoscope Michael O’Connor

for the

Week September 27, 2013

Tip of the Week: This week a dynamic build-up of energy will become apparent. September in general has been quite dramatic in terms of planetary alignments. How any charged energy pattern ‘influences’ people and events depends on many personal factors. Like the weather, it is not experienced or interpreted the same by everyone.

In fact, the experience is ultimately personal. Yet we can look to the generic pattern and gain useful insights. So, this week the Sun will come into exact Opposition aspect with Uranus by October 1st activating an already charged interaction between it and Pluto. The overall picture speaks of measurable, deliberate and revolutionary change on a mass scale, which has pretty much become the norm these days. Transformation and even metamorphosis are even more accurate terms. The result may be breakdown, but ideally, if one is in-tune and in the flow, breakthrough is happening. While the flow of change occurs on many fronts and in many ways, we can step back and realize that humanity in general is undergoing the birth of the ‘global village’. All those cultural, ethnic and apparently racial differences are steadily dissolving. After all, the findings of genetics have proven that despite these outer differences, all humans share the same fundamental genetic code. Against this larger backdrop illustrating the revolution of evolution of modern civilization, Venus and Mars are sharing a sparky exchange of energies now as well. They will form an exact 90 degree angle on October 28th with Mars in Leo and Venus in Scorpio – hot and spicy at best but charged and conflicted at worst. The New Moon in Libra occurs on October 4th. Stay tuned….

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20)

LIBRA (SEP 22 – OCT 22)

TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21)

SCORPIO (OCT 22 – NOV 21)

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUN 21)

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 21 – DEC 21)

CANCER (JUN 21 – JUL 22)

CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 19)

LEO (JUL 22 – AUG 23)

AQUARIUS (JAN 19 – FEB 19)

VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 22)

PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 20)

The flow of powerful shifts and changes continue to flow in. Basically these imply you having more power. With it comes added responsibility. The focus has shifted decidedly to your most intimate relationships. There is probably some extra work to do there.

The emphasis is upon fairness and equality. Begin with honest and open dialogue and dig deeper from there.

A process of cleaning, completing and improving continues. Your focus is hardly superficial. Circumstances are leading you to replace the old and unsightly with the new and beautiful or at least do the groundwork. New alliances and cooperative efforts in general are necessary. Yet be extra clear in all communications especially if you are signing legal contracts.

You have entered a creative cycle. It is not all fun and games however, and will require some sincere effort. You remain in a cycle that indicates some form of training or apprenticeship. It will require discipline, commitment and investment. The time frame is about one year starting now. If your focus is not clear, aim to sharpen it now.

The emphasis has shifted to the home front and may certainly include family members. Some rather serious events are the source of weighted emotions. At best, these imply sober, deliberate and practical efforts to secure foundations. Financial issues, inheritances, insurance and the like are featured. Get ready to do some investigative work.

A busy time with an array of errands and added activities will keep you busy for a while. These may include short journeys.

Entering new territory is likely as well. You may be confronted with a few doubts about your direction. This is a time to feel the fear and do it anyway. You are wise to meditate more these days and/or pay closer attention to your dreams.

You are entering what may be deemed a precarious cycle. The ground beneath your feet may not feel so solid. Flexibility in mind and body is extra important. You may experience fluctuating energy levels. Focusing within to courageously face fears will help.

Be open to new leads, methods, approaches and priorities.

Contact Michael O’Connor for a Personal Reading

G A M E S

|

The time has come to take some key initiatives. Financial interests and concerns are core motivations. You may be challenged to break through traditional lines of thought and action. Deepening your focus to investigate the possibilities is part of the plot.

The time is right to invest, but don’t expect quick returns. Take very calculated risks.

Balancing desires to retreat with urges to advance is the call now. You may achieve this goal simply by slowing down for a while.

Yet, the time is right to get and/or give instruction and training. There is reason to say you feel enthusiastic about the future. The main thing now is to more clearly decipher your direction.

Your social life is getting a boost now. Ironically, though you have perhaps asked for it, you may not really be in the mood.

Quieter gatherings with close friends may suit your needs best. Opportunities, rewards and legacies may be incoming, yet you may feel restricted in your ability to manage them. Enjoy the company, but take it slow.

Ambitions to increase your power potential are strong now. You would like more attention, but not simply to be popular. You want more leverage and are looking to engage with people of influence and affluence or at least with proven talent. This stands to be the best window you have had or will for a while so you might want to make the most of it.

You are in the mood for some fun and adventure. Yet, you also have some real work to do. How will you balance these seemingly opposing themes? Significant others are calling you out to play and challenging you to compete. Playing along stands to be the resolution you seek. Accept the challenge and set your sights upon rising to the occasion.

You are in deep now. Purely linear and logical thinking may not be enough. Allow for an intuitive and experiential approach as well. Expect to cover a lot of ground and in a variety of contexts. You may feel moodier these days and this trend will continue so learn to ride the waves better. You are in a prolonged learning curve as well; get used to it.

Kaslo icon turned to rubble A house in lower Kaslo, a block below the SS Moyie and two doors from the Beach Gables guesthouse, was flattened this month. Built in 1902, it was owned by former postmistress Verna Bowker, and lately by her daughter and son-in-law. It’s been a fixture on Front Street, directly across from the beach, for all that time. The demolition took about three hours to complete. A new home is expected to be built on the site.
