Anyone come here???

[wolfsoul]

I feel bad that I can't go to any of the PT meetings :( So I was wondering if any were planning to come to my part of B.C. anytime? :) I can't really go outside of the Valley :(...Has anyone been to Kelowna before? Or anywhere in the Okanagan Valley? :confused:

[iceyshiver21]

Wish I could but Im to young to drive by myself yet, and I dont have any clue where you live....I also wish I could go to the pt meetings in findaly(sp?) Ohio.

[wolfsoul]

I wish I could drive too lol. Kelowna is about 5 hours away from Vancouver. It's in the Okanagan Valley, along with many other cities, like Vernon, Penticton, Westbank, Peachland, Summerland and so on. :)

I wish I could go to a meeting, but I know that most of the people on PT are from the states, and the ones in Canada mostly aren't in B.C. So the only one I'm able to meet is Tikeyas_mom lol.

There's nobody near me either. *pouts* :(

[wolfsoul]

Sucks, doesn't it? lol :p Well, if anyone here decides to head my way, give me a shout (and bring your pet! lol)..
I'll be posting wonderful and tempting pics tomorrow of my Valley mwahahaha, I'll lure you all in!!!

I have been in Kelowna 4 years ago. Spent one night in the Abbot Villa hotel. Was sitting in the sun in a pub on the lake. Saw your lokal seasnake. Had some wine for dinner.
I thought it was a pretty mediterranean place for British Columbia:D

[wolfsoul]

lol, I haven't been many places so I wouldn't know if it's mediteranean heehee
So you saw the actual ogopogo (seasnake) or the pretend one beside the beach? I think the only way people would know about this place is the ogopogo lol. (and our many beer and wine factories :p)

I have friends in Vernon and might be making a trip there in the summer. Will let you know.

when I was little I went to kalowna every summer, both my grandparents lived their but they moved to toranto so I have not been their in a while. I live in Regina,Sask. so it is a 2 day drive:)

[bluekat]

I've been to Kelowna the summer before the last one, but only satyed there for not even a day. I might go to Vancouver this summer, since my uncle lives there. I live in Ontario, by the way.

Slick and Wolfsoul- aren't you two about three hours apart? I am looking at an atlas, outdated, I am sure, but, it seems like New Westminster, Kelowna and Vernon are pretty dern close...Course, this is an 'American' atlas...maybe the distances have been distorted??????

[slick]

Depends on which route I take. I can get to Vernon in about 4.5 hours and Kelowna is only another hour away. So if I plan a trip up there I will try to meet Wolfsoul. I can't get any vacation time until June. I'll PM as the time gets closer.

[slleipnir]

According to my dad BC is like 4000 miles from here lol taking about a week to drive lol. I can drive..I just don't have a car or money :rolleyes: I wish I could go to a PT meeting also lol but I wouldn't be suprised if I'm farthest from anyway LOL

Wow, that's cool! :D Wouldn't that be neat if I knew your friends, lol. I have family in Vernon, my two cousins and their dad and that's about it..;)

Well, I'm pretty sure we are about five hours apart :confused: Because my mom told me that Vancouver is about 5 hours away, and New Westminster is part of it...hmmm..

When I was younger we used to go camping quite a bit in penticton...usually around peach festival time. I really haven't been to BC since then though, oh well there was that time I went to Victoria but that was it. And I won't be going there this year, my vacation time this year is going to be used going to agility trails and an agility seminar.

[slick]

Well, that does it. I've definitely decided to take two weeks off in June. Week of June 9th and June 16th. I will be catsitting for some of those days but I'm sure I can swing up that way to visit friends for a day or two. That is, if you want to meet a 50 yr old.........

[wolfsoul]

yay :D lol, there will be an age gap, but that's okay! ;) We can definatly make plans, I don't know if I can get a ride to Vernon (my mom might be a touch worried:rolleyes: ) but I'm sure we will figure everything out ;)
