Public Art, Vancouver (No. 3)

The Drop is a steel sculpture resembling a raindrop designed by the group of German artists known as Inges Idee, located at Bon Voyage Plaza in the Coal Harbour neighborhood of downtown Vancouver. The 65-foot (20 m) tall piece is covered with Styrofoam and blue polyurethane. According to Inges Idee, the sculpture is "an homage to the power of nature" and represents "the relationship and outlook towards the water that surrounds us". The Drop was commissioned as part of the 2009 Vancouver Convention Centre Art Project and is owned by BC Pavco.

According to the City of Vancouver Public Art Registry, The Drop is a blue 65-foot (20 m) tall sculpture depicting a "large, gentle 'raindrop' captured in its descent at the moment of contact".The central "spine" of the sculpture is composed of steel and covered with Styrofoam and blue polyurethane. The piece's color complements the sky and contrasts with the large yellow sulfur piles visible on the opposite shoreline.

The Drop was commissioned as part of the Vancouver Convention Centre Art Project and marked the first North American project for Inges Idee, a group of four German artists. The sculpture was installed in 2009 at Bon Voyage Plaza (adjacent to the Vancouver Convention Centre) at the end of Burrard Street, along the waterfront in the Coal Harbour neighborhood of downtown Vancouver. The piece was removed temporarily during the 2010 Winter Olympics for interrupting the view of the television cameras.

The Vancouver Observer referred to the sculpture as the "quintessential Vancouver piece". According to the publication, The Drop has a "playful relationship with the viewer" and serves as a "big inside joke" for Vancouver residents. This refers to the high amount of rain the city receives; Vancouver is Canada's third most rainy large city, after Abbotsford and Halifax, with over 162 rainy days per year.

We’ve been waiting a while, but we now know when people can go to the four locations in this province, which are located within certain Hudson’s Bay (HBC) stores and will be open to the public on April 4.

Launches have already taken place in Ontario and Alberta, where long lines could indicate good news for nostalgic shoppers that the store is reopening. The bad news is that Zellers Diners on Wheels won’t be available yet.

“Not to fret; they will be back on the road and pulling up in all these communities over a series of days. Schedule to be announced soon,” the company said in a statement.

The menu will include the Big Z Burger, a hot chicken sandwich, grilled cheese, chicken fingers, and fries and gravy. There will be anchor categories at the launch, including basic clothing, housewares and home décor, furniture, small appliances, toys, and pet accessories. It’s also promising that its list of offerings will eventually grow.

In B.C., Zellers will be reopening in the Pacific Centre in Downtown Vancouver, the Guildford Town Centre in Surrey, the 7 Oaks Shopping Centre in Abbotsford, and the Aberdeen Mall in Kamloops.

Zellers initially closed its doors across the country in 2013.

Gonna move to Vancouver from Ontario what it do

Come hang out with me lol

Vancouver is annoyingly expensive. The actual city is kind of mid, I think. But that's literally just how cities are. There is however a lot of neat things to see and do if you're not from here. The transit system is pretty great here, in my opinion. I both drive and take transit depending how I feel on any given day and depending how full my gas tank is (it's currently like $1.77-1.85 per litre here for regular), I'm ambivalent. I'm close to a good bus line though, that leads directly to the skytrain. Skytrain pretty great so long as it's not a peak hour. Driving around most of the lower mainland is alright, driving downtown is stupid and not advised, also Richmond sucks to drive.

We have some super nice parks just to the north of the populated area here into the mountains, my favourite of is Golden Ears park, trail in that one goes way up into the back country and it'a oh so quiet and it really does feel like you're way far away from the city while you really aren't.

I personally live out in the east of what's considered Metro-Vancouver. Part of the same transit lines but too much further east and it's not anymore, out the way of Mission, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, etc. That's outside of the Metro-Vancouver area. Decent places but you gotta basically drive anywhere to go anywhere.

Climate's good, I'm sure you've heard, sure ain't that cold out right now. Rains a lot right now but in the summer many people complain about the lack of rain recently (I'm one who misses that rain but I don't complain because to complain is lame) I miss summer. So nice out in summer.

I don't know where to go with this post lol. It's nice here. I may sometimes dislike it, but there's no other place in the country I'd rather live, except further up the coast here in BC.

The west coast is the best coast 😎

Abbotsford BC Local Cuisines

Abbotsford BC local cuisines are diverse and delicious. While the city is known for its farming industries, a handful of restaurants have taken advantage of the area's agricultural bounty. Whether you are looking for fresh, locally-sourced brews, comfort foods or Southeast Asian street food, you'll find it in Abbotsford.

Abbotsford is home to many farm-to-table events throughout the year. In particular, the annual Taste of Abby Fall Food Festival features a long table dinner, night market, and collaborative farm-restaurant-winery-brewery collaborations. The Abbotsford Community Kitchen is a place to learn to cook healthy meals on a budget. They also have a support system, cooking classes, and cooking lessons for kids.

If you're in the mood for a traditional Italian meal, check out Paliotti's. The restaurant is family owned and has been in business for decades. Its kitchen uses only the highest quality ingredients and its baked goods are made from scratch. Located in the Historic Downtown district, the restaurant's quaint setting is a wonderful place to enjoy a delicious meal.

Another great spot to grab lunch or dinner is New Saigon. This Vietnamese restaurant offers a warm, welcoming setting and serves up a variety of Vietnamese cuisine. You can try their renowned hot pot soup or a coconut curry stew. Their lunch combos are a perfect value.

Noodlebox specializes in Asian street foods. They have a couple of locations in Abbotsford, BC. All of their dishes are prepared by hand and feature local ingredients, including non-gmo vegetables. Each noodle dish is made with real food.

For a more casual setting, look no further than Banter. It's located in Jubilee Park and serves a variety of flavours. They also have a wide range of ice creams and frozen beverages. A popular dessert option is the fried doughnut.

If you're in the mood to sample a little artisan chocolate, visit A Box of Bonbons. They offer a selection of handmade artisan chocolates. There are also chilled beverages and espresso drinks.

For a more unique dining experience, stop by the Polly Fox Cafe. It's completely gluten-free and has a wide array of delicatessens and breakfast options. Also, you can enjoy a coffee and banana bread in their comfortable, homey cafe.

Abbotsford is close to Vancouver, but not as big as the city. When you're in the area, take a drive east along Highway 1 and you'll discover an agricultural wonderland. Many of the farms in the area were devastated by last year's flood. But they're already planning a return to business. Ramsar Farm is one of the farms that's getting back on its feet. With its perfect clay soil, the farm grows rice, sake, and saffron. Its saffron sells for $50 a gram.

Other Abbotsford local cuisines include Greek Islands, Ann Marie's Cafe, and Good Kid Cafe. These three locations all offer breakfast, brunch, and lunch items, as well as an assortment of caffeinated beverages. Afterthoughts specializes in homemade desserts.

The city also boasts a number of craft breweries. Langley's Trading Post Brewing has a full kitchen and a full menu, plus a wide assortment of packaged beers to-go.

Prefabricated homes are a great choice for many people. They offer a number of benefits, including speedy construction and eco-friendly construction. Plus, they are more affordable than site-built homes.

Prefabricated homes can be built in a factory and are transported to your desired location. Whether you need a cozy cottage or a luxurious abode, you can find a home to suit your needs.

Depending on the size of your new home, it can take less time to build than a conventional house. For example, a one-bedroom container home can be finished in just three months.

A prefabricated home is also much more energy-efficient than a traditional one. In fact, some companies are able to achieve energy efficiency ratings that exceed even the most stringent building codes.

A prefabricated home can be built in a matter of days, or weeks, depending on the size of the project. It's often manufactured in sections that are cut, assembled and shipped to the desired location. This method can make it easier for a company to provide bulk discounts to buyers.

The prefab home has a long history. It first appeared in the mid-nineteenth century in the form of a kit home. It was later used in mass suburban housing developments after World War II.

Although they aren't the most environmentally friendly option, prefab homes can have a lot of style. Often, they are manufactured with local materials, allowing for lower costs for the buyer. Also, they can be shipped to any part of the country.

And of course, the historic Billy Barker Casino Hotel in Quesnel has all the excitement of slots and table games in the old town saloon atmosphere that made the area so popular during the Gold Rush.

Of course, not all gamers live for the rush of the one armed bandits or even the thrill of table games. Some gamblers like to take their luck trackside... For those with a hankering for the horses, BC can get you much closer than your favourite casino's off-track betting window. British Columbia has a full season of horse racing with events happening across the province all year at Sagebrush Downs in Kamloops, Sunflower Downs in Princeton and Kin Race Track in Vernon. Visit the BC Interior Horse Racing Website for meets, schedules and track conditions. And for those who want to have their cake and eat it too, BC has two Horse Track Racino facilities on the Lower Mainland: Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino in Surrey and the ever-popular Hastings Racecourse in Downtown Vancouver.

10 Things to do With Your Family in Cloverdale During The Covid Lockdown

Whether you have been living in the Surrey Cloverdale area your whole life or you just moved here you are likely getting tired of sitting at home during the pandemic lockdown.

As a Cloverdale native with a family, I wanted to share a few great activities families can do to mix up the fun at home. This is especially helpful for the families just moving into the neighborhood as we will introduce you to a few local businesses that need your support as the pandemic continues to affect our local Lower Mainland businesses.

Try a Meal Kit Service For Dinner

Cooking dinner or trying a new recipe together can be fun. If you are a well-seasoned cook and your family is used to creating meals together I would suggest trying the local Nanaimo Bar recipe with your kids.

If your family is not as seasoned at cooking new recipes together there are two great new local meal kit services

Eat Your Cake

Fresh Prep

Both services are local to the surrounding Vancouver area and deliver to all of Surrey and Langley residents. Each meal kit comes with food from local vendors across BC and keeps sustainable practices in mind. Servings are priced on average from $6 to $12 depending on the box and meal you choose.

Delivery Location: Surrey, Langley, Maple Ridge, Burnaby, Vancouver

Take an online cooking class

WellSeasoned has been around in Langley for many years with great cooking classes and even better-baked goods. The store has moved its business model to also offer great online cooking classes.

You can find a free Facebook live kids class on Wednesday or an adult pay-what-you-can class on Thursday evening. The Thursday class is a fundraiser to help the chefs at WellSeasoned through the Pandemic as classes sit canceled or at half capacity.

Store Location: Langley

Unique Family Game Night

After playing the same games over and over again your family may be tired of Monopoly or Trouble. Try a virtual or outdoor mystery game with Vancouver Mysteries. Virtual games are played over Zoom and can include costumes and teams. This is a great way to connect with family or friends, not in your core bubble. Vancouver Mysteries is usually played outdoors in the Downtown area but with new virtual events, it is easier to start up a game in your own home.

Store Location: Vancouver

Pottery Painting To Go

Located right in historic Downtown Cloverdale Create It Emporium offers to take home pottery painting kits good for the whole family. With many different pottery items to choose from simply email the store and pick up your kits. All kits include everything you need to paint your item and the firing when your item is finished.

Location: Cloverdale

Check Out a New Local Park

While the weather may be rainy with some snow at times 2021 has proven a year filled with more sunny days than expected. Here are some local parks that have easy trails to take the whole family on.

Bose Forest Park in West Cloverdale

Tynehead Trails in Surrey following the Serpentine River

Cloverdale River Park in Cloverdale

[PT-BR] “Good times” é o lema da Field House e foi exatamente isso que tivemos numa manhã ensolarada de domingo no pátio do brewpub. Localizado em uma charmosa vila com cara de antiga no centro de Chilliwack, essa é a segunda unidade da Field House (a primeira fica em Abbotsford. Já escrevi sobre ela, veja na #BCbeerMoB 😉). Apesar de terem uma estética diferente, as duas são bem aconchegantes, receptivas, têm boas cervejas e boas comidas. No taplist tem cervejas produzidas nas duas unidades. Eu prefiro provar as produzidas ali mesmo (a West Coast IPA e a Juicy Pale Ale são ótimas pedidas). Para acompanhar, deliciosa e tostadinha pizza Three Cheese com molho bechamel, muçarela, gouda e grana padano. [EN] “Good times” is @fieldhousebrewing ‘s slogan. That's exactly what we had on a sunny Sunday morning in the brewpub's patio. Located in a charming old village in downtown Chilliwack, this is Field House's second unit (the first is in Abbotsford. I already wrote about it, check it out on #BCbeerMoB 😉). They have a different aesthetic but both are very welcoming, cozy and have good beers and good food. The taplist has beers produced in both units. I prefer to taste the ones produced right there (West Coast IPA and Juicy Pale Ale are great options). To eat, a delicious and toasted Three Cheese pizza with Creamy Bechamel base, Mozzarella, Gouda and Grana Padano. check #BCbeerMoB for all the breweries I visited. . . . #beerVancouverMoB #BCAleTrail #thegrowlerbc #cerveja #beer #craftbeergirlfriends #beersoftheworld #girlsdrinkbeer #beersommelier #beerwoman #craftbeer #cervejaartesanal #ale #bcbeer #beersommelier #sommelierdecerveja #mulheresquebebemcerveja #craftbeerlife #mulherescervejeiras #beerwoman #drinklocal #bebalocal #brewtifulbc #craftbeerlover https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfr0BvZv-37/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
