This B.C. Heritage Week, beginning with a lovely Family Day this past Monday, took the stress of school away and had me in a daze of my memories. Illustrated is a representation of places I hold dear to my heart. My memories surround the beautiful trails of Mission, B.C.<\/p>\n

Norrish Creek is hidden but known to many. Just off Hawkins Pickle Road, it is a prime swimming hole in the summer. I remember picking blackberries off the abundance of bushes to bring home for pie, and long journeys on foot with my boyfriend\u2019s dogs.<\/p>\n

Just a tad further is Cascade Falls.\u00a0The iconic bridge and classic waterfall photo spot are always popular in Mission. The surrounding trees have always brought me comfort, and I am oh-so-grateful for beautiful places such as this. The road trips home with a beautiful sunset and music blaring are in sync, perfectly.<\/p>\n

Then there is Heritage Park. It’s the site of so many Easter egg hunts and Canada Days well-spent, first as a child and now as an adult. The view from there in any season brings me joy.\u00a0Its beautiful forest. The place I was able to experience many picnics. It’s always reminded me how amazing our community is, and how dedicated we all are to be a part of something.<\/p>\n

My all time favorite and most memorable place is Red Mountain. I spent many years in high school hiking the mountain with my two favorite dogs. I reflect on so many fun adventures that bring tears to my eyes as I miss one of the dogs so much you could not believe. It was never a dull Saturday, seeing the view, hearing the gun range, counting each bridge you reach \u2014 all fond memories I hope others can experience in these special places.<\/p>\n
