We moved to Steveston in 1976 and lived there for 34 years. We had a house built in a new area because it was the cheapest place to build in Richmond. We were two blocks from the Fraser River. There was a busy BC Packers fish plant that when the wind blew, you knew they were canning fish. There were sand dunes at Garry Point. I can't believe how it's transformed in the last 40 years. It's a destination now.
Yesterday, we met friends I worked with at Pacific Western Airlines in Steveston. We had a wonderful dinner at the Blue Canoe.
We dropped in the Tram Museum on our way to the restaurant. My cousin Gordon volunteers there, but it was his day off. They have restored B C Electric Train Car 1220 one of the original trams that ran on the Interurban Vancouver to Steveston route from 1913 to 1958.
