Usually a fun leisurely relaxing time ... when the water current is such that it takes 3 hours to get to the end of the channel ... NOT LESS THAN 90 MINUTES lol

lol jesus :L

The biggest change was adding staff from Coyote Cruises who will throw out ropes to pull anybody in who's near the exit point at Skaha Lake and hasn't been able to make it to shore.

“When our staff throw that rope and they rescue people, it's like entertainment [for] the people waiting at the end,” Stirling said, adding one of her employees snagged three tubes together the other day, bringing in 12 people safely while everyone cheered.

A couple volunteers have also joined the cause, bringing in their own jet skis to help bring back floaters who have gone under the bridge and onto the lake.


We are not made long for this planet

4 bucks, one just down the hill a bit to the left.
I have little pink plums on those trees along my front sidewalk. They get right up on their hind legs.
They wolf them down like there’s no tomorrow. Pit and all of course.
I find little piles of deer shit and plum pits all over my back yard.
They know my yard is a safe zone.

I had a doe and a fawn at my red plum tree yesterday. Same thing as those bucks.

Last year I was dumping a bucket of debris out back and I crossed my bridge to get to my pile. I took two steps and there was a really tiny fawn laying in the longer grass between 2 ferns. I quickly turned around as to not spook it.

Does will frequently leave the wee ones in that area and go off to feed on their own returning late in the day. But the little guys are really hard to spot if the sun is out and leaves are letting bits of sun through. Well camouflaged...
