In Appreciation... Dave and I wish to take the opportunity to put out a few posts over the next few weeks in order to give a shout out to some friendly local businesses that we've done some networking with lately... and where you are likely still able to find some of our bookmarks available for free.  A big note of appreciation goes out to:  Dock N' Duck (again)... where we had yet another amazing meal and refilled the bookmark display they have allowed for us in by all the maps and tourist magazines - Balfour, BC Canada's Best Value Inn (where we met the sweetest woman manager, ever!) - Castlegar, BC Bagels & Brew - Castlegar, BC Buddha Bistro   - Castlegar, BC Common Grounds Cafe   - Castlegar, BC Castlegar's Public Library Safeway   - Castlegar, BC Sandman Hotel   - Castlegar, BC Travel Lodge Fireside Inn   - Castlegar, BC ~~ Visit the Brummet's @:  http://BrummetMedia.ca

(Canada, BC) Free bookmarks! Dave did a wonderful job creating these bookmarks for us and I spent many hours making the display boxes by hand (cardboard and wrapped in maps)... resulting in these beauties:  RE: bookmark design ...  The side facing up in the display boxes below is actually a compilation of several photos...
