Bob and I visited Ed Spencer today at his home in Port Alberni. Ed is a pioneer of the valley and at 99 years old (nearly 100) he has many stories to tell. For me it was wonderful to understand the impact of the Spencer family. A farming family back in the day. Today much of their original land has local housing including homes, condo's etc. plus much of the wonderful Kitsuksis Dyke is within the original Spencer homestead. Both Ed and Larry were a joy to listen to.
