害羞草研究所淭he thrill that害羞草研究所檒l getcha when you get your picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone害羞草研究所π卟菅芯克鶟

The tune of Dr. Hook害羞草研究所檚 1970害羞草研究所檚 hit song, Cover of the Rolling Stone, was stuck in Valerie Rogers害羞草研究所 head when she learned her award-winning painting of a chinook salmon was on the cover of BC Outdoors magazine.

害羞草研究所淢aybe it isn害羞草研究所檛 as exciting as the cover of the Rolling Stone 害羞草研究所 but for a day I was humming that song,害羞草研究所 she smiled.

Rogers, from Salmon Arm, knew BC Outdoors was going to include an article about her, but not that her fish would be featured on the front.

Her chinook was perhaps destined for fame, after her painting, Rapid Ascent, was named in November 2022 as the Pacific Salmon Foundation害羞草研究所檚 winner of its Salmon Conservation Stamp Art Competition for 2023-24.

Fisheries and Oceans Canada issues the Salmon Conservation Stamp, which is purchased and affixed to the licence of tidal water anglers who wish to retain any species of salmon. Those who want to keep chinook purchase the chinook stamp.

Valerie害羞草研究所檚 spouse Neil subscribes to BC Outdoors magazine, so she saw her painting when his copy arrived in the mail.

害羞草研究所淚t came for him, so I have appropriated his. He害羞草研究所檚 like, don害羞草研究所檛 bend the pages,害羞草研究所 she said with a smile.

害羞草研究所淚t was a nice surprise,害羞草研究所 she adds. 害羞草研究所淚t is a privilege to see it there.害羞草研究所
