Development


Slocan-style development: logging huge pines and cedars, piling up the slash to burn, all a mere 100 metres from the main intersection in town. Rumours say this will be the site of a new food store. The economy around here is hurting for the most part, but there are a few signs this fall of something other than endless waning.

Are these the little hobbit houses beyond? We'd really like to stay there!

Is there no demand for the firewood that's created from the clearance work?

Yes those are the domes. The wood will go to a sawmill: those logs are way too big to just be used for firewood.
