Well we've been around the small town of Osoyoos and there are a couple of very special things to see here. The first and most interesting is a warehouse turned into a world of villages all made by hand which includes toy trains and the like. A family from Denmark moved here 30 years ago and began to build different worlds revolved around trains. It takes him about three years to complete one small corner village with tracks, homes, mountains etc. It is truly amazing.
The second most famous place, well not really famous, here is the Home Hardware store. All you handy men and women would appreciate it. Everyone else as well. It has just about everything you could imagine and it a replica of an old fashioned hardware store just off the sidewalk. Four floors, a million things and very friendly people.
So, now that we've seen the best in this city, we are going to try and leave tomorrow. The temps are supposed to be higher up in the mountains and if we time it right, about 2 up there, we should be able to cross over successfully.
Oh yeah, this is the very first time in my life, when we've come across a hotel that said "heated pool" that there has actually been a heated pool. It's body temp and so getting in is very comfortable. This is the life (as long as Jo doesn't have to live in the mountains).

Greetings,
Not sure when you left Winnipeg or where you're off to on this earth, just checked in on your blog. Might have to dig into your blog a little deeper. I just got back from a 3 month trip to Scotland, Germany and France. Brenda is still there for a few more months.
Watch out for the road kill ...
All the best, Hans
