ʻO ka pule hope loa, ua holoholo wau i ka hoʻohana ʻana o South Okanagan-West Kootenay no ka ʻelima mau mahina ma ka lālani. Lawe wau i ʻehiku mau lā e hoʻopili i nā ala a me nā ala nui, kū ma nā haleʻaina a me nā wahi ʻai me ke ala ʻoi loa e hoʻokō me nā mea koho a ʻike me lākou ma kā lākou ala.
ʻO kēia mau mahina 12 ua mālama au e hoʻokō i nā pā pāhola ākea kahi a mākou e kamaʻilio ai ma kahi lōʻihi. A i ka manawa hou e noho ana ka ʻike e like me ka mea i manaʻo ʻia - nā kamaʻilio maikaʻi ʻana ma nā ʻano kumuhana āpau, ke aniau maikaʻi a me nā wahi nani i loko o kēia hoʻohana maikaʻi.
Ua hoʻomaka wau i ka ʻike me kekahi mau hoa holo paikikala ma Glenfir, ma kahi o ʻewalu mau mile ma ka ʻākau o Naramata ma ke alahele ʻo Kettle Valley Railway. Ua hōʻea mākou i Penticton i ka manawa no ka ʻaina kakahiaka a me kahi haʻalulu e Mike Farnworth, ke Kuhina BC o Security Public.
No ke kumu o ka puhi ahi ʻana o Christie Mountain kahi ahi a ʻo kahi keʻena ʻo Emergency Operations Center kahi palaka wale nō, ua lawe wau i ke Kuhina i ka EOC e hoʻopaʻapaʻa i ka naʻau e pale ana a me nā pane ʻana a me nā papa i ʻike ʻia mai nā makahiki i hala.
Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka hau kalima ma Okanagan Falls a me ka ʻaina awakea ma Oliver, ua loaʻa hou iaʻu i loko o ke kaʻa ma Osoyoos a kalaiwa aku iā Large White, ke komohana ʻākau o ka hoʻohana ʻana.
Ua hui wau me nā ʻoihana ʻona ma ka ʻaina kakahiaka i kakahiaka nui ma hope o ka loaʻa hou ʻana i ke ala KVR ma McCulloch a holo kaʻa i ka 60 km i Beaverdell. Ua hui mākou i kekahi mau kime o ka poʻe holo paikikala ma ke ala i mahalo i ke ala akā e ʻōlelo ikaika e mālama ʻia ia i nā kūlana kiʻekiʻe no nā poʻe holo kaʻa.
Ma Carmi, hāʻawi mākou i kahi wahi nānā ʻo BC Wildfire e mālama nei i kēlā me kēia kanaka mai kahi ākea o Carmi Creek kahi e puhi nei kahi kapuahi. ʻO ka lede e mālama ana i ka wahi nānā i ukuhi ʻia me ka makana no ka lalo a me nā luina o ka lewa e pale ana i ka lua ahi a me kekahi ma Solomon Mountain a puni ke awāwa.
Ma luna o ka pizza ma Rock Creek, ua kamaʻilio koke wau me ke kumu kumu kumu e pili ana i ka wehe hou ʻana o nā kumu a ua kamaʻilio lōʻihi ʻia me kahi kanaka ʻoihana e pili ana i ka nānā kālā maikaʻi no Beaverdell i ka neʻe ʻana o kēlā me kēia mea a hana hou i loko o ka mea maikaʻi maoli e pili ana i ka West Kettle Valley. .
I ka lā aʻe ua hoʻomau wau i ke ala KVR i Rock Creek, kahi aʻu i mākaʻikaʻi ai i ka Riverside Center hou, kahi mea hou hoihoi i ka wahi e hāʻawi ai i ka ʻike mea kūʻai aku, nā hui kaiaulu, kahi hana o nā alaloa a me nā hui panakō i hoʻolako ʻia e ka helu ʻaiʻāina ʻo Osoyoos. Uniona.
Ua ʻai mākou i ka ʻaina ahiahi ma ka Keg a me Kettle Grill ma Halfway, kahi hale ʻaina hou loa e hana nei i kahi ʻoihana ulu i nā hanana paʻakikī.
I ke kakahiaka ʻehā, ua hui au me Ciel Sander, ka mea hoʻonohonoho ala ʻōiwi, no ka ʻike e like me Eholt a iho i Grand Forks. Ua hāʻawi lokomaikaʻi ʻo Ciel iaʻu keke uila uila momona, e ʻōlelo nei he papa weliweli ka papahele o kēia ʻāpana a paʻakikī hoʻi no nā paikikala maʻamau e like me kaʻu.
Ua hui pū nā lālā o ka Grand Forks pōʻaiapuni iā mākou kokoke iā Eholt (i waenakonu o ka Hodges Tunnel pouli loa e kikoʻī!) A ua ʻike ʻia ka pilikia i ke kākoʻo ʻana i nā mea pōhaku a me ke one o ke ala ke kaʻana like ʻia me nā malihini kaʻa kaʻa.
Ma muli o kēia mau huila momona (a me ke kōkua pedal uila!), Ua hōʻea au no ka ʻaina awakea ma Grand Forks i ka manawa kūpono kahi kahi i hōʻuluʻulu ʻia e kahi hui ʻē aʻe no nā kūkā kamaʻilio ʻana ma ka pā o ke ala hele wāwae me nā kumuhana e hoʻomaka ana mai nā pilikia a puni ka 5G pūnaewele hale kiaʻi i nā politika i kekahi. nā pae mahalo.
Ua hāʻule wau i lalo ma ka mea kūʻai aku uila hou loa ma ke kūlanakauhale nui ʻo Forks e kamaʻilio me ka mea nona ka mea e paipai ana i ka paikikala (
i kēlā me kēia wahi i hoʻokahuli ʻia e ka ʻoihana ma waena o COVID) ʻoiai ua nānā surreptitious wau i nā keke uila me nā pulu momona.
Ma muli o ke kaha ʻana o Grand Forks i ka pae waena o kaʻu huakaʻi, he pae kūpono loa kēia e wahī i kēia kolamu a e hoʻopau wau i ka hōʻike i ka pule aʻe. Nā ala hele hauʻoli!
