A Delicious Stop in Williams Lake at Noodle California

We had such a delightful meal here, and it was the perfect way to enjoy a little break while travelling through Williams Lake! To top it all off, we were treated to a complimentary little strawberry dessert that was absolutely delicious. 🍓 It was such a sweet touch and made an already wonderful meal even better. We definitely recommend stopping in and giving this place a try when you’re coming through Williams Lake, BC — you won’t be disappointed!

I unfortunately missed out on doing an awesome tour again last year, but would love to do when it’s the final tours this year. If you haven’t been, you should go. It’s a lot of fun and you learn a lot of history and you meet a lot of neat people with the same interest who here would be interested in going in a small group you have to be dedicated to the date ! I’ll have an idea once I come back from the Caribou next week of which day I might be going if I can make it work!

So I’ve made it a tradition since forever to visit my elderly grandmother who is now 91 for my birthday, which is next Thursday and we’re leaving on Wednesday morning to the caribou. I would love to check this site out and I’m very interested to know who’s been here.
What do you recommend that we see?we would be going on the Friday 😃108 Heritage Site

❤️ Looking Ahead Together

Like so many in the South Cariboo and across British Columbia, we've been watching the wildfire situation closely. While the 108 Mile Heritage Site is not currently under threat, we know many families and communities around us continue to face uncertainty, and our thoughts are with everyone who has been affected.

We're especially grateful to the firefighters, emergency responders, pilots, support crews, and volunteers who continue working tirelessly to protect our communities. Thank you for everything you are doing.

During challenging times like these, we're reminded of how strong our community is and how important it is to support one another.

As we look ahead to September, we're hopeful for calmer days and the opportunity to welcome visitors back to the 108 Community Hall and the evening events at the Heritage Site for Cari-BOO-Con—a weekend that brings together history, community, and a shared curiosity about the unexplained.

⏳ Tomorrow, July 31, is the final day to purchase a VIP Early Bird Weekend Pass for $179.99 CAD before the price increases.

VIP guests receive:
👻 Friday Night Ghost Tour
🍽️ VIP Dinner with our speakers and special guests
🌌 VIP Sky Watch beneath the beautiful Cariboo skies
🎤 Full weekend access to presentations
👣 Only 10 VIP guests will be selected to join Dave Scott on an exclusive Sasquatch Tour.

Not interested in VIP? Full Weekend and Single-Day tickets are also available, so there's an option for everyone. https://www.cariboocon.com/

❤️ Every ticket purchased helps support the 108 Mile Heritage Site, helping preserve our historic buildings, share the stories of the South Cariboo, and ensure this special place can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Whether you're a longtime local or planning a visit from farther away, we look forward to welcoming you this September.

Until then, please continue to look after one another, stay safe, and thank you for supporting your community.

I don’t normally post things like this on here but it’s a worthy cause to help fellow adventurers and their fellow fur babes that come along.

🐾 HELP ROCKY GET THE SURGERY HE NEEDS 🐾

Some friends of mine have been hit with an unexpected and heartbreaking situation with their beloved fur baby, Rocky. He needs surgery on his leg, and unfortunately, they have very little available to cover such an unexpected expense.

The total veterinary bill is expected to be around $6,000, and they are hoping to raise at least $2,000 to help take some of the weight off this huge financial blow.

If you love your fur kids as much as they love Rocky, you know they’re not “just a dog” — they’re family. ❤️ Even a small donation can go a long way toward getting Rocky the surgery he needs and back on his feet.

If you’re able to help, please consider donating or sharing this post. Every little bit truly helps. 🐶❤️

Thank you so much to everyone who takes a moment to help, donate, or simply share Rocky’s story. 🙏🐾

If you know Rocky, you know he isn’t just our dog — he is our family, our best fri… Kim Starko needs your support for Help Us Get Rocky Back on His Paws

There’s something truly special about holding a piece of history in your hands. Today I came across a set of postcards from the 1920s that followed the journey from Windermere to Banff, and it was an absolute pleasure to flip through them. Seeing these places long before modern highways and paved roads existed is like looking through a window into another era. The rugged, winding roads remind you that travel was once an adventure all its own—slower, more challenging, and full of determination. It’s amazing how something as simple as an old postcard can transport you back in time and offer a glimpse into the roots of the places we know today.
Thank you Iris !

This might not be a ghost town and it might not be an abandoned place, but it is an adventure of the pallet and what a recommendation I’m going to give for this place because these guys did phenomenal for dinner tonight.

🍣 If you’re ever in Nelson, do yourself a favor and stop by Sushiwood! What an absolutely incredible dinner. Every roll was bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors and packed with delicious goodness. Without question, this is some of the best sushi we’ve ever had—it completely knocked every other sushi experience out of the park.

A huge compliment to the talented chefs whose craftsmanship and attention to detail shine through in every beautifully presented dish. It wasn’t just a meal; it was an experience. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Nelson! 🍱👏💯 and of course thank you to our waitress who was also very lovely to talk to.

Nelson Sushi Wood thank you for the wonderful experience. We will be back. Nelson Visitor Centre Nelson, B.C.
