![]() I would like some land, have seen a few with 10Acers or more, but 5 would do me as I would like to get a few horses if it works out.. Told the wife I would settle for Quads if we couldn't get enough land haha.
What are the wells like out pritchard way, do they produce lots of good water? and as far as water goes what is the groung water quality in you neck of the woods? Realy I don't mine where I live as long as it is freehold land (not leased) , about 30 min or less from town, and the kids can get bus service to school. I would also like to be in a shaw service area for the internet/tv but I can work around that if I have to. If I am in town I would like a river valley/city view, out of town what ever.. I grew up on a farm in Alberta, so I am leaning towards the land and trees thing. hmm a friend of ours said to not look at batchlor hights or brock, I'll have to find out why. Steve

Well water is a whole different story -- generally if you are in the valley bottom, you get lots of water, but it is usually a bit high on Iron (700 tds). But up on the hills you either get good/lots of water or you get none. You drill 50 ft over and you hit water. Even if the neighbouring properties have water all over, don't count on it until you see water flowing. Most areas close to the city (barnhartvale, rayliegh) have city fed water, and those on the kamloops line have RO water out of the tap. (Yay!, 3 ppm water out of the tap). |

And yeah, armstrong is quite a ways out -- It *might* be worth looking at Chase and Turtle valley area (about 45-60 mins out). Nice lake town. One of the downside to most of these rural areas -- No high speed internet. A lot are dial up and only get 25kbps at best. Just something to consider when you decide on what area. |

![]() I am a Kamloops reefer myself, I moved back from Langley after about 4 years living in the lower mainland and have not regretted it once in the 1.5 years. I would reccommend black pines its out past westsyde but there are big views, big lot size and close ammenities. I live in bachelor heights, chose to stick closer to town for commuting reasons, though I often laugh at what is called "rush hour" here.
