Phew!! One is never enough.......

If there's any great music, it'll be coming from you, Brian!!

That's very kind of you, Brian. I'm hoping there might be a few doors open around the US and Canada when I get there. I'd love to meet as many forumites as possible!

August/September at this stage - trying to coincide with a late August 75th Rickenbacker Anniversary extravaganza (as per JH's post a couple of weeks ago), which I guess will be in CA.

Hamburgers OK, but definitely not fast food chain jobbies!!

Jeez Aitch don't go to Vancouver looking for me that city is 4 hours from me and it experiences lousy weather in September.

I'm in Vernon B.C. The nearest international airport is Kelowna (20 minutes away). This is the semi arid part of Canada. We usually have very nice weather in August and September.

Here's a couple of weather shots taken from my deck overlooking Okanagan Lake.

I'm not much of a photographer but you will get the idea. The second shot was taken in the fall. As you can see our weather is usually very nice here

No probs, Brian. I checked out a map a few weeks back - I know where Vernon is.

Looks great! Are those shots taken from your home or your weekend shack?

I have the same view from my office. It's actually very distracting at times especially when I am trying to do some work that involves a lot of writing.

I'm not complaining though.

Brian, I suppose you haven't seen Ogopogo from your vantage point overlooking the lake ...

Gary, not yet! Camera is always at the ready. Although I am not much of a photographer as you can tell. One picture could be worth millions.
