<br />
When the controversial documentary, “The Principle”, hit theaters it was met with uproar. Starring the most famous physicists in the world such as, Michio Kaku, Max Tegmark, Lawrence Krauss et al, and narrated by Kate Mulgrew, of Star Trek: Voyager, it has recently released on iTunes and Amazon.<br />
<br />
Controversy arose because, “The Principle”, shows renowned physicists seemingly suggesting that there is scientific evidence supporting the idea that our Earth just might be in a unique, perhaps even "designed" place in the universe.<br />
<br />
Adding to the controversy is that, when some of the famous scientists who are featured in the film, saw it, they released statements stating that they did not know that they were being interviewed for a documentary that tackles the God question.<br />
<br />
The documentary goes further. In it, famous MIT physicist, Max Tegmark describes his analysis of the W Map (the map of the entire universe) in which he seems to suggest that the universe, from its beginning, appears to have been strangely ordered, suggesting that such a finding should not be possible in a universe that was not designed.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq2HISVHCKe4xf7VycY6OqoNzlHYYY_BY75TMhU2kVSZytXdKeRmBTiZKLPbyRIHtBxo2y7rMMg5k5DSvHLAcZUkicNMmS0njLOqjCOA8dUJbx-ztgings0eW1LCTBeZCrsdt2M4QErRs/s1600/DVD_Cover_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq2HISVHCKe4xf7VycY6OqoNzlHYYY_BY75TMhU2kVSZytXdKeRmBTiZKLPbyRIHtBxo2y7rMMg5k5DSvHLAcZUkicNMmS0njLOqjCOA8dUJbx-ztgings0eW1LCTBeZCrsdt2M4QErRs/s400/DVD_Cover_1.jpg" width="265" /></a></div>
Because of the seeming impossibility of Tegmark's findings, he with tongue-and-cheek, calls the W Map discovery, "The Axis of Evil." Tegmark does not go so far as to say that there is a creator or designer, rather, that his findings seem to be inexplicable, at least for now.<br />

<br />
Bigfoot, an unknown species of animal, would be able to survive in the same environment, living off the same food sources as known species in the target area.<br />
<br />
The animal's activities would bare striking resemblance to the grizzly bear, black bear, cougar, wolves, ungulates and porcupine. Perhaps that would explain some of how it has managed to have eluded our attention.<br />
<br />
Inside, Barb has compiled an extensive profile on Bigfoot and shares her discoveries of the first year of operations. This book is reference material for the serious Bigfoot field researcher. Campbell is a former UFO and paranormal researcher.<br />
<br />
She has also served as a forensic investigator of unexplained animal deaths (UAD), aka animal mutilation cases, and has appeared on Cattle Killers episode of MonsterQuest.<br />

<b><i>Above Photo: Ice jam raise's the water in the Bulkley River at Smithers, British Columbia.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An ice jam has threaten to flood homes that are in low lying areas next to the Bulkley river in Smithers, British Columbia in the early part of January 2016. People were placed on high alert as the ice and water backed up onto peoples property.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As chunks of ice started building up on the river, this caused the water to back up, flooding some basements and property.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were approximately 16 or so homeowners that were placed on evacuation notice if the river continued to rise. There was some flooding on some the roads.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In Spring runoff, many of these low lying areas do flood, and flooding has been seen in years past from ice jams on the Bulkley.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also residents are being advised to stay away from the river as it is extremely dangerous.</div>

It is funny, know matter how many times I visit communities throughout northern British Columbia, I always find something new to film. I moved from Surrey, B.C. in 1981 to where I reside now, which is in small town Houston.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

There were a few challenges to over come, like setting up a home in the dead of winter with temperatures dropping into the minus thirty's.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Houston, British Columbia is known around the world for a good number of things, such as Canada’s largest fly fishing rod and one of two grizzly bears that were killing cattle around Hungry Hill. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also we have the “beautiful” Steelhead Park which runs along Highway 16 through Houston. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the park there is the Steelhead fountain where you can sit peacefully enjoying the day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another popular attraction is the Wolf Totem Pole which is in the park.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In summer there are numerous beds of blooming flowers of different types and well manicured grass. The park is truly Houston’s well known gem.</div>

For myself trains have held a special place in my life. It started when I was a little guy when I received my first train on Christmas day. I was so excited as my Dad handed out the presents, and in one of the wrapped boxes was a locomotive, box cars, tracks and small houses. I quickly opened up the box pulling everything out onto the floor in one pile. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew exactly how it was supposed to be put together, at least I thought so. My dad sat with me as we both transformed a pile of plastic and metal into a working model railroad. I was so happy with a smile from ear to ear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As the years went by, we decided to build a larger scale railway, but little did I realize that it wasn’t going to be just a bit larger, it was going to be huge as it took up the entire recreation room in the basement. It was great and we had a lot of fun putting it together and then operating it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So when my daughter drove me to the Kamloops Heritage Railway, I was just like that kid again on Christmas day. It was off season as we were in Kamloops in November of 2015, so I could not experience the ride the train took tourists on, plus the cowboys on horse back robbing the train.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next time we visit my daughter, I will be the 64 year old sitting on the train with a smile from ear to ear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So make your holiday stop in Kamloops, British Columbia where all your dreams will come true as did mine.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
During our visit with family in Kamloops, British Columbia, my daughter drove me to a back alley in the downtown area. I did wonder where she was taking me, but it soon became very clear as I my face lit up. All of the buildings along this back alley had beautiful murals painted on them by some very clever people. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The back alley murals are amazing and when visiting Kamloops, B.C. make sure you take time to visit this wonderful work of art.</div>

Continuing from my post on December 23, 2015 entitled “A Beautiful Place To Visit Or Make it Your Home In Hope British Columbia” and the posting of a number of wooden sculptures pictures, I wanted to add the rest of the photos I have of the wooden sculptures.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what I have done is to place information about the Hope Slide with some of the sights I saw and filmed around Hope in early November 2015.</div>

<b><i>Above Photo: Beautiful wooden sculpture seen in front of the District of Hope, British Columbia.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The district of Hope is an amazing place to visit. First of all, Hope, B.C. is the gateway to pretty much all of British Columbia.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope has a population of approximately 6,170 residents and is located in the Cascade Mountain range, which makes for a very scenic place to visit, or a wonderful place to call home. Hope, British Columbia</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On our journey around Hope in November 2015 we seen the most beautiful wooden sculptures which were carved with a chain-saw by Hope’s local artist Peter Ryan. The wooden sculptures were seen all throughout the town.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are so many different things to see which made it hard to visit them all, but I certainly will return in 2016 to visit all that Hope has to offer. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
For our family and so many others, Prince George is a great place to spend your holidays. There are a lot of awesome lakes and camping spots available in the summer months, and there are excellent places to ski and snowboard. Prince George really has everything you can imagine, as it is a large city. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the summer of 2016 we plan on spending some time in Prince George as it is rich in history and so very scenic. So I can’t wait to dig around to see what I might find and bring to my visitors.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Once again we headed off on a new adventure, this time closer to home. On December 14, 2015 we decided, since it was a beautiful day to take a drive out on the old Equity Silver Mine Road. The road had been ploughed recently so it was like a super highway. The sky was deep blue and the snow crystals glistened in the sunlight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Equity mine road has been one of my favorite places to visit which is just outside of town. Years back in the summer we would take all the little kids to a spot where they could catch some trout, and it was right at the side of the road. They would cast out their fishing line with a float attached and wait for the float to bob up and down. Of course there was always a juicy worm on the hook. </div>

<b><i>Above Photo: 1887 St. Andrews On The Square Heritage Site Kamloops British Columbia.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In early November 2015 my daughter continued to show me around the city of Kamloops. It seemed at every turn there was something wonderful to see, then we came upon the St. Andrews On The Square site. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
St. Andrews On The Square was built in 1887 and is the oldest public building in the city of Kamloops. The city bought it, then restored everything back in 1998.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Kamloops Heritage Society now operates the facility, where weddings and other events are held.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also on site are the gorgeous St. Andrews gardens where </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
local musicians and performers can be found.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So when planning your next holiday, don’t forget to put Kamloops on your agenda so you can tour all the wonderful historic sites seen around town.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, December 15, 2015 we decided to take a drive on the Walcott Forest Service Road as I wanted to take some pictures of the Telkwa Mountain Range and other scenic areas along the way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With a bright blue sky and the ground covered with snow, all this make for some really nice photos. I also had my sights set on the old Quick Bridge near the end of todays journey, actually I did not know if it was still there as there has been talk that the bridge was to be torn down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As we dropped in elevation from the mountains and entered into the valley, there it stood, an amazing sight to see, the old Quick wooden bridge was still there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Well another dawn arrived in Houston, B.C. with yet another heavy snowfall on the ground. Everything, I mean everything is white. So on December 13, 2015 I headed out harmed with camera, water and pop to one of my favorite places around Houston.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Knockholt for me holds a lot of good memories, my kids when younger would swim in the Bulkley River at Knockholt. Then my daughters kids did the same. They could build sandcastles with moat, ride inner tubes down the river or just splash around having a good old time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The scenery there never lets you down, and the beauty about this location is that you can drive right to it. From Houston heading east the distance is only a 8.6km drive along Highway 16 and make a right hand turn onto McKilligan Road, a few hundred yards down the road and you can park your vehicle and within a few steps you are sitting by the river. </div>

Once again we woke up to a blanket of snow on Saturday December 12, 2015. It was just gorgeous out with the new snow and we decided to take a drive out on the Morice River road outside of Houston, British Columbia.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The trees were covered in white, it was as if someone dropped blobs of white paint onto the branches of the trees. Although the sky was dark and overcast, the brilliance from the snow made for a wonderful picture.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Telkwa is a wonderful small village which can be found in British Columbia. If you are planning a trip through, or to visit you would follow Highway 16 west from Prince George, B.C. for approximately 350 kilometres. Telkwa and area are rich in history and you can venture through Telkwa’s Museum for a look back in time. Also Telkwa boasts about it’s Tyhee Lake Provincial Park, and they have a right too, it is beautiful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Camping is available in the park and the campsites are secluded, this way you can lay back and take it easy and there is large parking lot for day visitors. Also on site are horseshoe pits and a volleyball net in case you want to get your competitive side on.</div>

My wife and I were in Smithers, British Columbia on December 10, 2015 as I had to pick up some new glasses. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the first things I wanted to do was too take some pictures of the 1,012 pound "Phantom Grizzly Bear" which was shot on Hungry Hill by Conservation Officers and is on display at the Smithers Airport Smithers, British Columbia. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we drove to the airport, I parked the car and ran inside of the airport and took a few pictures. I ran back out, jumped in the car and as we were leaving the airport’s parking lot, I noticed how nice the mountains looked with dark clouds hanging over them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to pull the car over, I got out and took a few shots of the mountains.</div>

In the Fall of 2001 Conservation Officers caught up with the Hungry Hill Grizzly Bear. It has been reported that this one bear killed upwards of 30 head of cattle in and around Hungry Hill which is located approximately 14 km NW of Houston, British Columbia.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The phantom grizzly bear was one of two grizzly bears that were killed for the downing of a lot cattle. The grizzly killed 30 head of cattle over a three year period.</div>

<b><i>Above Photo: Visitors Centre in Hope, British Columbia. What a great place to visit.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With all my travels through Hope on Highway 1 driving up the Fraser Canyon, I rarely stopped in Hope to take advantage of the wonderful things Hope, B.C. had to offer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the gems in Hope is their Rotary Centennial Park. It is beautiful and is a wonderful place to get out to stretch your legs, or stop for a picnic lunch. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are tables and benches for you to sit as you watch the mighty Fraser River flow on by. You can also view the chainsaw carvings that are located in the park, and throughout the town.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So if you are planning out a holiday and the route takes you through Hope, B.C., take the time to wander around the town as it has a lot to offer.</div>
