Merritt and the Great Northern Adventure
of British Columbia for years. My visions
of vast open wild spaces have
haunted me most of my life.
I am lucky enough to be able
to travel this beautiful province of
British Columbia and in September 2013 my
dream was about to become reality.
First stop along the way
was south-central BC and the Nicola Valley.

Experiencing the immensity of
the grasslands near Merritt is awe inspiring.
And it's quiet here. I mean .... really, really quiet.
You can hear the wind rustling the
grass in huge swaths that sweep across
the hillsides and valleys.The occasional rock or
tree breaks the rhythm of nature, heat waves
undulate and caress the blue skies.
I stayed overnight at Marquart Lake.
The skies slowly dissolve into an inky black,
the soft nighttime calls of an owl resting
in a nearby tree remain within my heart.
