Summer means grass in bloom ·
And crab season to begin soon ·
Does Tyee test fishery predict run
timing or size? Maybe |

New Bus
Station – and Parking?? |
|
I
don’t see any special zoning requirement other than the parking --- will
computing parking needs mean that other facilities in building must then declare
their dedicated parking? --- airline terminal/ restaurants, offices etc |
|
|
Food or
sport? |
|
OK
maybe this fellow from Saskachewan with 3 freezers in pickup and portable power
system was here to buy Sockeye from commercial fishers and take back home ---
or here to fill up freezers with what he could catch on a ‘sport license’ –
your call |
|
Plants
pulled from garden clog up city fountain -- |
Vandalism
& Civic Pride |
|
|
|
|
Civic Pride |
|
We
see how much local pride goes into the planters etc along 3rd
avenue ---- but we often look aside when youth vandalizes either City beds or
planters --- A City employee found 5 different sites of vandalism last
weekend --- the fountain example may have been the Kindergartners I saw
pulling a flower and putting in fountain – still perhaps I should have said
something to the non attentive parents |

Dactylis
glomerata? |
|
Sockeye
run seems to be heralded by the grasses going into flower – lasts only a few
days and hard to see unless looking I
have not keyed out but looks like common ‘weedy’ Orchard Grass – see
E-Flora |
|
|
Again the Crab season begins |
|
Image
is meant to convey how the crab pots are slowly being taken away where
stacked along shore I
have several previous pages – but none recent --- this August 2004 has good history of
industry While
much older HECATE STRAITS shows
grounds etc as does this one along with other
spp in Hecate |
|
How
well does TYEE test fishery (total to July 17th) predict the seasonal
total for test fishery – thus by implication run timing for this 4 year
interval --- and again does July 17th cumulative data allow us to
predict the final run size? --- Doesn’t look likely from above unless use 1985
1989 (graph right) More on this later
