@bethanylindsay just picked up your book of lists. Had some good laughs, and learned a few things about BC so far, and I’m only a couple of pages in. Thanks!
My friends! It is Roy Henry Vickers' birthday!!
Please join me in wishing this incredibly inspiring artist, storyteller, teacher, father and friend the very happiest of birthdays!!
Many happy returns @RHVickers
Lots going on in this 1932 @VPL photo taken from the Hotel Vancouver looking towards the new Burrard St bridge. Check out those #WestEnd houses! You can see St. Pauls Hospital, St. Andrews Wesley United Church and the old King George school left of frame

7 years ago today, Raven Brings The Light hit bookshelves, the first in our series of 4 books. It's been among the privileges of my life to see these stories resonating into so many people's lives as they have become National Bestsellers. May you be inspired today too! @RHVickers
This incredible photo of a knife wielding man dangling his toddler from a third floor window on Heatley and East Cordova, won retired #Vancouver Sun photographer Ralph Bower a 1985 National Newspaper Award #localhistory

This is one of my favourite photos. It shows six members of the Flying Seven—Vancouver’s all-female aviators’ club standing in front of a rocket ship at #YVR in 1940. This week’s post is about the Flying Seven and the story of the rocket ship.

Everything British Columbia is starting to sell out in a lot of bookstores in Metro Vancouver, but there's still time to get a copy in time for Christmas if you order now! https://t.co/kaEUjurE2L
"Any book of lists is designed to provoke and promote conversation and debate. It should get readers thinking, and this one does. And trying to poke holes in the lists is all part of the fun. Lindsay and Weichel did a good job!"
