On a hike to Shorts Creek Falls at Fintry, BC one hour drive south-west of Vernon, BC.
I went hiking with Lisa, our children, my two sister in-laws, Kristina and Angela and my future brother in-law, Neil. It was a spectacular sunny Okanogan day. We explored the heritage dairy farm at the base of the hike, we had particular interest in this today, as I had just met Neil for the first time a few days ago and he is a dairy farmer so I was learning a few things about how the dairy business works. The hike was 383 timber stairs with beautiful lookout points, we definitely will be back. I always enjoy, as do many, the falling and crashing of water with the negative ions giving me a spine tingling rush and a sense of euphoria. Jackson was filled with excitement, as at four months of age this would have been his first falling water experience so his senses where flooded with new sensations. Elizabeth now more than two years of age has seen many and was more interested with the rhythm and challenge of the stairs and the goal to make it to the top. It is interesting to see the different stages of development and perhaps personalities shaping what they find intriguing in a particular space.
