Welcome Eric, we love pics, but you need to post at least 5 times before that is possible.  Personally I have no idea where Smithers BC is, but we have a number of BC members who I am sure do, & will educate me & the rest of the club.  Lots of good info & expert advice available from around the world here. Congrats on your purchase.

Welcome aboard Eric. Smithers is a nice place. Hope to see a few progress pics soon. You can post your photos to Photobucket then copy/paste the link to your post.

Hey, Frank is really OK. Just LOOKS intimidating LOL  ;)

Don't forget Seaweb11 on Gabriola. His interests seem to have strayed though.

One non- stop per day in each direction. They use a regional jet. About a 3 hr flight, usually pretty full. Flight 6248 from lax.
