Happy ! A smiling man sitting side-saddle on a ride-on locomotive pulling small cars filled with passengers. These trains were at Swan Point in Hatzic Lake. The operator lived in Mission and moved the trains from place to place. Photo taken by Bill Saunders in the 1950’s. (P11925)

Happy ! Man sitting atop a huge pile of railway ties that look like they are loaded on a truck but it may just be parked behind the pile. Not much is known about this image that was taken in the 1920s. (P09106)

Happy ! This is Vernon Military Training Camp where there was annual training with the Westminster Regiment 2nd Battalion (Home Guard) B Company (Haney, Hammond etc). A long row of tents, some with sides hauled up for cooling. The building at the far end is identified as the latrine.

Happy ! Take a look at these lovely women in old fashioned clothing on the S.S Beaver, fall-fair parade float. This was taken during the maple ridge fall-fair of 1961. Don’t they look beautiful and festive?

Happy ! Shown is the Pioneer Lumber Water Tower lying on its side and all bashed in. Taken in December 1992, the words on tower say "Whonnock Lumber", the former name of the mill. The two workmen reveal the size of the tower. Don’t you think the picture looks a bit eerie?
