"Hair of the dog" |
Summerland's infamous "Peacock Perch" pub. A definite "must see" if ever in Summerland. |
The largest "pint" I've ever seen...apparently it's the largest in the Okanangan Valley. All the more reason to stop by Peacock's Perch. |
Jana & I (thanks again for the "pint") |

Drinkin' N'Sliding at WaterWorld Waterslides |
"The Last Slide" was awesome! After 25yrs of operations Penticton's Water World is being torn down! Many many great childhood memories created there. |

A drink and a warm up before hitting the slides again... |
Good thing lifeguard wasn't on duty... |

THE best way to waterslide (as we discovered last night) in the dark |

Rebels... |
Love the beehive... |
The war wounds are already evident
|
After 12hrs...the war wounds have expanded. Guess this is why they don't allow face first on your stomach sliding. lol |
