Rode my bike up an old logging road to Fragrance Lake in Larabee State Park just south of my home in Bellingham, WA.. Road is blocked off to cars and makes a nice hill climb. I think around 1,000 elevation gain. Going at a steady pace it can be meditative; especially listening to the radio. Big news on the radio from Canada; British Columbia that is. They recently had an election. Their two most liberal mainstream parties did well. The Greens and the New Democrats (NDP). Today's news was that the two parties decided to do a coalition government combining forces which puts them in the majority. I'm a bit rusty on Canadian parliamentary politics, but it means the Liberals, which is a moderate party, are now in the minority. The Premier of BC may have to step down. The majority, created by this new coalition, is a majority of only one vote in the parliament. That means if a member of parliament goes to the restroom at the wrong time and misses a vote, it could bring down the government. They were kind of joking about that. I wish our politics, here in USA, was as fluid as the Canadian system. If we don't like our leaders, we are stuck with them for too long. In Canada, they can call an election, have no confidence votes and so forth. Looks like liberal and environmental forces are gaining strength up in BC. By co-incidence the big Canadian pipeline company, Kinder Morgan, that wants to enlarge the pipeline from Alberta to Vancouver area is going to Toronto Stock Exchange tomorrow (Tuesday) to try and raise 2 billion dollars for the project. There's speculation that the left and Green turn in BC politics might make it even harder to build that pipeline. How will that effect the stock offering? The radio is full of talk. A nice contrast as I pedal my way up the grade through cool forests.

The City of Houston developed rapidly in the 19th century due in large part to its capacity for shipping and transportation. This was made possible by waterways, such as Buffalo Bayou, and railroads, five of which radiated from the city in 1861. Houston's industrial center, the warehouse district, grew up east of Main Street, along the banks of Buffalo Bayou. In 1860, Samuel May Williams sold this property to Houston physician D.F. Stuart, who built a warehouse in the 1880s for cotton storage. The Lottman brothers purchased the site in 1893 and converted the building into a mattress factory. In 1904, they sold the property to H.F. Spalti, vice-president of Olive & Myers Manufacturing Company of Dallas. Spalti and Company President W.B. Myers started Myers-Spalti on this site. J.A. Grieves assisted them in developing the Houston branch of their successful mattress and furniture factory. The original warehouse housed the millwork and planning sections of the company. Built in 1905, Warehouse Number Two housed the shipping, cabinetry and finishing departments, and Warehouse Number Three contained the printing and management offices. By 1907, a rail line extended onto the property from nearby tracks. Myers-Spalti added a fourth warehouse for storage in 1909 and additional structures in the 1920s. The company moved operations in the 1950s. The development of Houston's industrial architecture can be seen in this site's building styles, which range from brick and heavy timber to concrete slab and columns. Since the 1950s, the buildings have housed hardware sales, electronics and manufacturing, storage and other light industrial businesses. The structures were once part of a city marketplace project and later developed into residential housing. Location 29° 45.612? N, 95° 20.815?
