Day 3

Fall in the Slough

Finn Slough sits on the Southern Dyke in Richmond. It was always a stop in my bike rides as a kid. Today I hopped back on the cycle and headed that way with my camera.

Directly from wiki

Finn Slough is a tiny Fraser River fishing community located at the south end of No. 4 Road in Richmond, British Columbia. The community has approximately 30 residents who live in wooden houses both floating and built on stilts along the marshy river bank. Many of the buildings were built between the late 1800s and 1950s and many have decayed severely, while some have been carefully restored. Finn Slough was founded by Finnish settlers who came to Richmond in the 1880s.
