From the southern interior of British Columbia, Canada. I am a frequent visitor to Portland OR as I have family there. Been doing research on this site for the last 2 years, but finally decided to join.
Kelowna is a beautiful area for sure. I used to spend a fair amount of time there doing Greyhound overloads out of Vancouver during Dec/Jan.
I just returned from the South Okanagan a few days ago, the local hockey team there ran roughshod over my local team. I spent so much time running around, I didn't have time to detail the bus.
If you need any help, don't be shy. There's a tremendous amount of talent here at Autopia.
Right on man, last time I was on the Island maybe 7 years ago and ended up in Gold River, of all places. Did some Salmon fishing in Nookta Sound, caught nothing. Very cool area.
