Florida and California was the spots for whatever you wanted. Take Care and Stay Safe.

While I do love living in the Okanagan, I do sssoooooo miss that drive from Calgary up to the mountains. And I stop at Field EVERY single time I go through the pass. Such an awesome place to stop, stretch the legs and enjoy the sights. Found out later in life that when my father worked on the trains, Field was hist turnaround point from Calgary. The CN station there is quite cool, on the opposite side of the tracks.
