sO, SAD, GRANT.... we spent 2 weeks at Lake Okanagan...right up the road from Kelowna...2 yrs ago. We voted it the most beautiful spot (inland) we had ever seen....and now it is destroyed. So sad. I'm glad we maed it there when we did....and I hope, in time it can reforest, rebuild and repair.
Stunning pictures, Grant, thank you....and sorry- I know how much you love your country.

That is the Okanagan Lake is the foreground. I wish I had a "before-picture". (pretty similar to Michelle's picture in "OUCH Fund Raising Committee--IDEAS and INPUT"

That area really is God's country and I can see why you would vote it "the most beautiful spot (inland)".

Hey Grant,
Here's another one...just starting. We stayed and watched the helicopter dip outta the lake.
My little brother is digging trenches around the fires in E. Washington to try and stop em.
Nice pics, btw...sad too

It gets boring answering the same questions so I'll put them ALL HERE. As I point out in the mail I sent Grant. My comment was to Dan. The boring mail sent to me saying "How can you say that. How can you do that."? Easy. I already told him my comment wasn't about him. But some people need to, Oh, I won't say that. LOL. I'll let you sit there and try.

Well as the Sylvan managers say. The fuel load in the forest is in the process of being reduced to acceptable levels.
Damn shame.

No Problem --- I understood your comment.
Last I heard THIS fire is 75% under control. Amazing what a little rain can do.
