No, I guess the two suspects were wanted by the police already. Something to do with a "criminal investigation". They fled from the police and holed themselves up in this house. Apparently no shots were fired, but the RCMP figured there was probably hunting rifles in the house (pretty safe bet up here). They closed the highway and brought the SWAT teams in from Terrace and PG.
I guess the two suspects tried to get away by boat on the skeena. One got dropped off on the other side of the river, and the other ended up going back to the property. Both gave up shortly after.

It is a good thing too, the only route around is a radio controled forestry road that takes 4-5 hours to go around a 40km closure

You could look at it that way. I wouldn't doupt that they were high on something, or atleast drunk, judging by the location that this happened.

Well, I have found some information about the horse that I adopted earlier this year.

She was foaled in Courtenay. I have the breeder's name and address at the time. He is no longer at that address, but I have found someone with the same name that lives in Courtenay, so I am hoping it is the same one. The last registered owner has disapeared off the face of the earth, just like the rescue center told me recently.

I also have the registered names for her sire, dam, ss, sd, ds, and dd; foaled date; registered date; and her registration No.

Tonight, I am going to try and phone the breeder and see if I can get some more information about her past.

Good morning Jason and Todd. I had 18F this morning. I didn't think it was suppose to go below mid 20's, little shocking.

Good morning again

It was 2C here this morning and is supposed to get up to 6C and cloudy. I really wish that we would either get some sunshine, or atleast some snow!
