Last week, in the afternoon, we were paid a visit by a family of Black Bears.  I had heard that there was a mother with three cubs wandering around but they had eluded my site until now.  What a cute family they make, I have seen 2 cubs many a time but three!  The runt of the litter is not even black, he is very much brown as the video shows, so much so that I would mistake him for a Brown Bear cub. 

Brown Bears are much more aggressive and dangerous to humans then the Black Bear, more along the lines of the Grizzly Bear.  Black Bears are not an unusual site in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley real estate areas of British Columbia and the Albion / Thornhill neighborhoods of Maple Ridge are no exception but a Brown Bear would be a shocker in these parts.

These bears appear healthy and well fed and should pose no threat to humans unless you go out of your way to provoke or corner the animals.  I can not say the same for my nieghbors vegetable garden which the mamma was ravaging but better that then the garbage cans.  Enjoy the videos and feel free to click on the above link to search for homes for sale in Maple Ridge.

There is a disturbing trend in the Real Estate industry to cheap out and cobble a bunch of photographs together using something that resembles a glorified PowerPoint presentation.

Most people know that the number one search engine in the World is Google but what they dont realize is that the #2 search engine is YouTube, guess who owns YouTube?  GOOGLE DOES! 

Google loves Video and hates Virtual Tour photo essays, if you are a Realtor and you are not using video you might as well completely go old school and show properties with a horse and buggy! 

We have all homes professionally photographed in Wide Angle as well as the movie which can also be used to show neighborhood context such as schools, transit, views etc!  Buyer's like photos but they love Video!

This morning, grudgingly in order to appease my 10 year old daughter, I fell out of bed at around 5:30 AM in order that I could drive her to the official Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch run through Maple Ridge, British Columbia real estate on its way to Vancouver where it will arrive in the 4 days time after winding through Greater Vancouver.

I like the Olympics but I don't like 5:30 AM, none the less I really enjoyed the ceremony.  Olivia and I were so close to the flame we felt the heat from it on our faces as the runner ran up to the stage at Maple Ridge's Peace Park.

We arrived just in time to secure right upfront position very near the cenotaph, literally inches from the torch runner.  Thousands converged at this early hour, and all joined in on an inspiring 'Oh Canada' as the torch ran up to the stage.

My daughter made me very proud by maning to catch this amazing up close picture of the torch in mid runner's stride, he was really moving and we were very close.  It would have been a tough shot for me!  I was working the Flip Camera and below is a short video montage of the event to.  I hope you enjoy it wherever you are in the World from metropolitan Vancouver/Whistler, British Columbia, home of the XXI Winter Olympiad in only 4 days!

February 8th is the big day when the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch Relay runs through Maple Ridge real estate.  Join the Community Celebration as the Olympic Flame passes through Maple Ridge in the morning of Monday, February 8. Celebrations will take place at Memorial Peace Park beginning at 6:15 am and runs until 8:00 am. An official ceremony, entertainment, Spirit of Wood unveiling, and free continental breakfast will be provided followed by "try-it" sport demonstrations. Due to rolling road closures and congestion around the celebration site the community is encouraged to walk or cycle to the event. Commuters should allow additional travel time to reach their destination. Please note that parking will be restricted in the downtown area.

The posted approximate start time is for the torch to arrive at Telosky Hill (Thomas Haney Secondary) at 7:06 am, winding through town until 8:13 am when it enters Pitt Meadows.

The torch is scheduled to leave Mission at 6:44am from about Wren and Lougheed, it would not be humanly possible to run it from there to Telosky in 20 minutes so it seems there will not be opportunities along the route through Ruskin, Whonnock or Albion to see much more then a convoy drive by until the arrival in the downtown core.

Remember the good old days when you opened up a mail chute on the side of the Post Office and dumped your mail inside?  Remember the sense of confidence you had trusting your mail with the Post Office and the surety in knowing that it would be delivered?

What you are seeing here is the brazen heist of three stuffed to the nuts, mailboxes from right in front of the Maple Ridge Post Office.  Apparently Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are the the midst of a crisis of mail theft on a unprecedented scale.

The S(t)uper Mailboxes and the Standup units, like the ones that were stolen from the Maple Ridge post office, are no match for a chain wrapped around them and attached to a speeding off truck.  I find myself timing my mail dropoff to coincide with the scheduled pickup and never dump mail on a weekend.  I have obtained a Post Office Box that I can trust for my mail delivery. 

Identity theft is at a crisis, creditors and credit agencies don't give you the benefit of the doubt.  You are convicted until you prove yourself innocent in their eyes.  Be warned, be wary!  If they can steal 3 stuffed mailboxes from in front of the Maple Ridge Post Office, then your neighborhood box is just as easy a target.  I know that most of the victims of the Maple Ridge heist are completely unaware of their victimization. 

Don't get me started on those readily available keys for the S(t)uper Mailboxes, thats an entirely different story.  Maple Ridge real estate isn't the only place where this is happening, this one just hits close to my home.

How did Maple Ridge get it's name?

Maple Ridge real estate was incorporated on September 12, 1874; it was the sixth municipality to be formed in B.C., preceded only by New Westminster, Victoria, Langley, Chilliwack, and North Cowichan. At that time Maple Ridge consisted of 33,000 acres, but had fewer than 50 families.

By 1874, several small communities had sprung up on the north side of the Fraser River including Port Haney, Port Hammond, Pitt Meadows, Whonnock, Albion, Ruskin, and Webster's Corners. One of the problems of small isolated communities is that they tend to stay small and isolated unless some means is found to build roads between them.

One of the earliest European settlers in the district was John Mclver, a Scot, who homesteaded where the Maple Ridge Golf Course is now located. The first Council was formed on October 3, 1874 when a group of men representing their small communities gathered at Mclver's farm to discuss incorporating the whole district between the Pitt River and Mission to allow taxation for road building. The McIver property with its ridge of beautiful maple trees which stretched for two miles along the river was the source for the name Maple Ridge.

Maple Ridge was not connected to New Westminster until 1913 with the construction of River Road and the Pitt River Bridge and was the only rural municipality in British Columbia through which the Canadian Pacific Railway passed.

The CP Rail Christmas Train continues its cross-Canada journey into Alberta and B.C. on December 9 before completing its journey on December 18th, the day the train passes through Maple Ridge.

This is the 11th year that the Canadian Pacific Christmas Train has been raising food, money and awareness for food banks in communities across Canada and the U.S. To date, they've helped raise $4 million and 2 million pounds of food with our Holiday Train program.

From the initial partnership with the National Food sharing program this was a new idea formed in 1999.That December, CP began running a freight train decorated with thousands of Christmas lights across Canada, to raise awareness of the issue of hunger prevalent in all communities. In 2001, CP launched a second Holiday Train in the United States.

The goal of the Holiday Train is to collect food and money for local food banks and to raise awareness in the fight against hunger. At each event, the Holiday Train provides a box car stage, a line up of great musical talent and a corporate contribution to the local food bank. The community, in turn, is encouraged to donate food and funds, all of which stays in the community.

Entertainers on this train include the Odds, an alternative rock band, bringing their energy and full voiced harmonies to the Holiday Train stage for the first time. They will be joined by Shaun Verrault of the Canadian blues-rock trio Wide Mouth Mason.

Maple Ridge has long been a successful and well attended stop on the train's tour.

Maple Ridge Train Time - 7:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m., across from the Billy Miner Pub on River Road.  Bring something for the Ridge Meadows Food Bank.

Bring the kids down to Maple Ridge's Historic Port Haney area and let the kids see Santa!

It's official, the biggest thing since Harry Potter, the Twilight Saga is filming the second instalment Eclipse in and around the Lower Mainland of British Columbia in the suburbs of Vancouver.

I spotted the "Forks Washington" Police Cruisers in storage, probably near an unidentified set in downtown Maple Ridge earlier this week and have been on the look out for one of the actual sets ever since.  If i got my 8 & 10 year old daughters on set of Eclipse I would be the coolest Dad in the World for at least the rest of the year in my girls eyes.

A movie set cropped up in the Maple Ridge real estate neighborhood of Albion which looked suspiciously like Eclipse, non-descript without the usual set arrow signs with a name on them.  My spider senses told me this might be a way to keep the young girls away from the set. So I pulled up, video camera in hand, and this is what happened:

In reality there is nothing Forks Washington in Eclipse, this may have not been an actual set for the Movie in Maple Ridge but some of the known sets have been located in:

• Belcarra Regional Park, Burrard Inlet, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
• Capilano College, North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada David Thompson Secondary School, Victoria-Fraserview, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
• Gastown, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
• Langley, British Columbia, Canada
• Port Moody, British Columbia, Canada
• Robert Burnaby Park, East Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada
• Steveston, Richmond, British Columbia, Canada
• Surrey, British Columbia, Canada  (Bella's house)
  
• Vancouver Film Studios, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
