I had stopped off to get some lunch and see Linden Gardens while en route to visit my family in British Columbia. Unfortunately, I got there too late in the day and the gardens and cafe had closed.
I decided to carry on past the turn-off to see if I could reach Skaha Lake that way. At the bottom of the hill, in the small picturesque town of Kaleden, there is the shell of an old hotel. It apparently closed and was gutted of all useful material during WWI.
At one time, someone had great plans for this building and now this is all that’s left.
“Don’t hoard treasure down here where it gets eaten by moths and corroded by rust – or – worse! – stolen by burglars. It’s obvious, isn’t it? The place where your treasure is, is the place where you’ll want to end up being.”
Matthew 6:19-21 (The Message)
