Hope Photo Day

Some photos of my little burg, Hope.


No home delivery, all mail is picked up at our teeny Canada Post.



A great place to sit and watch the river, and contemplate.



The same bench, a few months later, when the yearly rise of the Fraser River overtakes it.



This is a one stop light town,( seriously ) and here’s the corner where it’s at, Third St and Wallace.



and another angle with a beautiful flower basket hanging from the entrance to City Hall



The war memorial in our gorgeous park




The only *department store* in town.



Hope has had a lot of movies filmed here, but the most famous of all was Rambo First Blood. And so there is an extremely cheesy face cut-out thingy I try to force upon drunk nice and obliging cousins when they travel here. Here’s my cousin Denny hating my guts smiling and happy while I take his pic!


Hope you enjoyed this little glimpse into where I am ( at the moment! ) calling home.

And leave a comment dammit!

These are really good and Global news has small town special and they ask for photos to feature it.
I think your pics are good enough and you should do it

Denny never looked so good! Just kidding!! He's a good sport.

Love the pics of your little town, Colleen. One traffic light would suit me just fine. :)

Thanks Nancy!

I love a one stop light town...hope I never have to live with 2 or more! That said, I sure wish I was closer to my grandbaby...I'd take all the stop lights for that divine pleasure. :)
