Few more shots... hope you bought a case or two of some of the Okanagan's finest. El Nihilo (spelling?) & Arrowleaf wineries are close by & also make first class wines. Actually, these days most any wine produced in the Okanagan is world class. Wasn't always the case, but Grey Monk is one of the oldest family owned operations & they kind of led the way out of the 'Baby Duck' & 'Lonesome Charlie' days! And now we have an award winning distiller in Vernon, Okanagan Spirits. If you're ever out this way again, worth checking out. Bring plenty of cash though...



Moving to the Okanagan almost 10 years ago was a pretty good choice in my books. Before that I was a 'cubicle' person, like poor old 'tlhood' a few posts up^



Ok, gotta go now & enjoy a sip of chilled Riesling on what remains of a hot afternoon....er, evening...
