Today, at the Mission library authors from Mission presented many golden tales but none of their stories was as tall as what Brian Antonson had to tell. The picture shows Brian just minutes before he shared everything he knows about tent-shaped rocks and where to find the the gold! In the crowd were the faces of Donald, Sheena, Adam, Helmi and Fred. Sadly missed were Daryl and Greg and of course (as always) the enigmatic Rob Nicholson.
Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
In 1891,in New Westminster BC, an elderly Native man was hanged for murder. Today, legends of epic proportions link him with rich gold findings in the mountains around Pitt Lake and multiple killings. What do we really know about this man and where did the legends come from?

Memorable quotations
A gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar on top.
Gold makes a fool of us all the time. Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
Gold is where you find it.
