"I spent every summer of my life in and around Kelowna/Vernon between ages 0 and 19. It was lovely back then — probably built up considerably since I saw it last."

Kelowna

Wow... it certainly has built up! That bridge is a floating bridge, and it crosses Okanagan Lake (largest lake in British Columbia). The part in the foreground just past the bridge has always been the “main drag” thru Kelowna, and that was always developed. But it looks like Kelowna has been developed pretty much all the way thru to Winfield...

When I was a kid, much of this was orchard and pasture. Looks like most of that is gone now.
