We had a great visit with Ron's niece Birget and Matt last night. While they were working today Ron and I went touring. We started at the University of Northern B.C. It was opened in 1994 and has diversified and re-energised the city. It's satellite campuses and outreach initiatives have made a landmark contribution to all of northern B.C.'s development. It is now building The Northern Sports Centre which will be a key facility for local resident as well as high level athletes training and performing in national and international competitions.
I looked through the Art Gallery and bought a small statue of a Kermodei Spirit Bear. These rare bears, unique to Northwest B.C., result when a black bear cub receives a recessive white coat gene from both parents. They are not found anywhere else in the world. They are half a pound when born and grown to 250 - 450 pounds as adults.
