A bull caribou was spotted swimming on the Purcells side of the south end of Kootenay Lake. A miraculous sight after the province declared our southern Selkirks and Purcells herds lost and transferred the 6 remaining caribou to an area north of Revelstoke.

“What I like doing best is Nothing,” said Christopher Robin.
“How do you do Nothing?” asked Pooh.
“Well, it’s when people call out at you, ‘What are you going to do, Christopher Robin?’ and you say ‘Oh, nothing,’ and then you go and do it.” ~A.A.Milne #WednesdayWisdom #StayAtHome
