The Okanagan is a beautiful and very large lake in British Columbia.  Our friends Neil and Brenda have a ‘cabin’ on the water in Vernon – the city right next to the lake.  They took us for a boat ride – Neil did a little surfing behind the boat, a new way of using boats – and gave us a tour around the lake (photos below).  It was great to see them and we had a fun visit.

The good news is we are here and enjoying ourselves.  The bad news is the fuel starvation thing came back just as we were arriving in Vernon.  We are still trying to figure out what is going on – possibilities are heat – it got to 88 degrees as we arrived, a higher ethanol content in gas here, and more that I won’t bore you with.  I put a new thicker gasket under the carburetor to help insulate it from the engine heat.  Getting pretty tired of this but we have to solve it.
