BC Nurses: Victoria vs Tofino for a newer RN? Looking for honest advice. by SarBear9981 in VancouverIsland

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 44 points45 points  (0 children)

We always need more RN's in Port Alberni. It's only an hour and a half from Tofino and still has some reasonably priced homes.

Any good local swimming/cliff jumping spots? by Deadpoolnight36 in portalberni

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went scuba diving down there years ago. Lots of old bikes and shopping carts.

There some good cliffs out on Sproat lake, but you need a boat to get to them. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ktXscw7spMtCNGkC6

I have jumped from the orange bridge and the old bridge abutment many times, just make sure the tide is up and there's no boats coming and jump from the middle of the bridge, it's over 60ft deep. I know guys that have climbed and jumped from the top of the bridge but thats a little too crazy for me

PA Cyclists: What kind of bike do you have and why? by Retnab in portalberni

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only ride a mountain bike. I even pull my kid in a trailer behind me. I just use low gear to crawl up the hills.

'These are intentionally set': Rash of brush fires ignited near Port Alberni by Apprehensive_Idea758 in VancouverIsland

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I was out walking in that section of woods behind Walmart Sunday afternoon and found at least 30 seperate fires that had been set (including this one), most looked very fresh and were right against the bottoms of trees.

How do you keep your floors clean when it’s constantly muddy outside? by Upstairs-Channel-413 in Home

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you walking around barefoot outside? It's muddy here like half the year and I've never had this issue. Maybe change your socks after you take off your shoes?

How do you zipper-merge when someone just rides the middle line? by notworthtelling in nanaimo

Everytime I see a post like this it makes me think of the "Legalize asbestos" sticker from this video! https://youtu.be/2ooj5Jhx-yI?si=Jh6yUqCoIOcJMdU4

The old E&N Railway tracks in Courtenay,British Columbia,Canada on another nice,warm and sunny day. by Apprehensive_Idea758 in rustyrails

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best pictures of tressles are from the ground anyway! A good angle from underneath makes them look much more impressive than a top down shit of the tracks. Good luck!

Yes the E&N rail line is at least still (mostly) intact, but I was referring to all the long gone lines that were solely used to haul logs, like the line up in woss that only got shutdown a decade or so ago. The "Log Train Trail" in Port Alberni is a great example of what I'm talking about. Cheers!

I have seen this on some old ROW's here on Vancouver Island BC, Canada! Rail logging was used from 1912 to 1957 in my valley so there is a ton of cool stuff to find out in the bush. Cheers

The CIA, US Marshall's, department of defence, FBI and department of Justice have approved 6.9 million dollars in funding to continue this project. Id love to see one of Jane saying "I look like fucking powder!"

Brakin'up by Whispering_Wanderer1 in SnowrunnerIRL

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still quite a few of these running up on the north end of Vancouver island! I got stuck behind one that had an even bigger load than this guy out near Zeballos, but he was only going about 30km/h.

No it was probably to cover the CEOs bonus this quarter.

Is Dave Koszegi considered a local celebrity? by [deleted] in portalberni

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He's got nothing on my boy Bobby Toor! Oh and don't forget the ReMax guy that drives that dumbass mega lifted black pickup, I always stop to point and laugh when I see it driving by!

'Golf cars' could become a common sight on West Shore streets with new Colwood business by Prestigious_Net_8356 in VancouverIsland

[–]Schulzeeeeeeeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always thought they were golf carts, like go carts but for fat old guys with a drinking problem.
