This is all happening in the midst of a busy tourist season…</p>

<p>Praying for rain…</p>
<p>Ooh, I am so sorry to hear this. But, I have to tell you-- when I read your thread title, I thought you had done something really great, like run a race really fast or something , and were telling us that you are “on fire” :o</p>
<p>Thanks, a good friend lives there, though our contact is rare.</p>
<p>Hoping everything will be ok. </p>
<p>Kelowna is a beautiful city.</p>
