This is the spectacular viewpoint over Osoyoos.
"We had friends from Australia with us, they rented a motorhome to tour around with us, we have a 32' Fleetwood Bounder Motorhome and pull a small car. This picture was taken coming down the gondola at Jasper. They were amazed at all the beauty we have here in Canada. We went up through the Yellowhead to Jasper, saw the Columbia Ice-fields, Athabasca Fall, then to family in Buck Lake for a few days, they got a tour of a Buffalo Farm. Then onto Sedgewick, Alberta for a family wedding, onto Edmonton, Banff the Okanagan then back to Vancouver where we left them and we came back to Vancouver Island. We were gone 3 weeks and put over 1800 KLM on the motorhome."
My husband and I were visiting the Nelson/Balfour area for the first time in our 1970-something Boler travel trailer. On arrival at the campsite, we were assigned a lakefront spot and when we parked, we were the only people there; however, as we set up camp, neighbours arrived to the left and to the right of us. Once we had set up camp, we decided to take a drive to Balfour and as we were pulling out of our campsite, I looked back at our trailer and this picture is what I saw. The difference in size between us and our neighbors really tickled our funny bones. We've now graduated to a 28' fifth wheel but we still talk about our little Boler, how much fun we had in it and how simple life was back then.
