Im actually waiting for a call from a different job, so Im down in the lower mainland right now too. Doesnt look like I will have the extra funds to head anywhere except maybe vancouver, so Im just gonna hang around here with the woman.

As for romantic plans, damn it all depends on what kind of woman you have!

My little bro just came up from Kelowna on Saturday. Don't ask him about romantic plans as his fiance just left him after being together for 5.5 yrs. So we had a session with Dr. Gibsons on Saturday night and Dr. Pilsner last night and got everything straightened out. My pa flys up on Fri, so we are having Christmas here, which is a nice change. We put our foot down and said enough of us always going down to Kelowna for Christmas, we are the ones with the kid so they can come and see us. Who knew that they would actually call our bluff

As for romantic idea's, preppy has it right, it depends on your lady friend. Snow camo could be handy this year Hide and seek

Ya, it was a total surprise to him. I guess that she just wanted to live the single party life more. They had planned to go to Scotland together for Christmas since that is where her mom is and my little bro cancelled his ticket and came up here. He is taking it OK. He is the one with the good job making the $ so he can move on. It's just the blind sideing that really sucks.

Come North. It is the beer out here. Where drinking by yourself is socialy accepted Actually I have a buddy that used to live in Masset (on the Charlottes) and I called him one night cause my wife was working in camp, so I was watching the boob tube and Dr. P and I were having an indepth discussion fixing all the worlds problems when I decided to share my new found wisdom with my buddy in Masset. Well it ended up that he was doing the same thing with his Mexican friend Mr. Corrona, so the four of us stayed up all night getting pie-eyed and had a discussion via the phone while watching the same shows on TV. I know it's kinda lame but it kinda funny too.

Ya, I am so glad I moved out of Kelowna and the south. When my family comes up here all they do is sleep. I think that the oxygen cleans out their brains and the slower pace of live actually slows them down and they rest some.

And nothing wrong with Bud. We all have to have our friends. I just prefer the schollored ones

Going back to Winfield for x-mas this year with the wifey my kids. I barely get down there anymore so Im excited. I miss the south, Im in Quesnel now and theres nowhere nice to go swimming. I like the lakes in the okanagan, but its too expensive to live there.

I grew up there, its really nice to be able to pick from 3 different lakes and be at any one of them within 5-10 minutes from the other....seems these days anything from Cache Creek south to the border is insainly expensive. Its bad when you pay over $100,000 for an older used mobile in a park. You could buy a $30,000 trailer and replace it with a brand new one for that. Forget about buying a house for under $300,000
