Fruit and Vegetable Stands
We decided to follow the suggestion that Thea and Ian had given us and drove highway 3 instead of the toll freeway. The road wound it’s way through a small mountain range and ended at the bottom end of the Okanagan Valley. We drove through a town called Keremous and were amazed at the number of fruit and vegetable stands. There were piles of squash and pumpkins along with other fruits and vegetables. This area definitely is dryer than the coast, with orchards and vineyards lining both sides of the roadway. We continued up the highway to Penticton and spent the night at a Walmart. After we landed Ed took Zaph to the park / beach that was about 1 mile from Walmart where Zaph had a nice romp and swim.
