I just checked my airmiles statement and I have 902 air miles. I only need 900 to get to Kelowna, so it looks like I'll be flying in.
Have fun paying for gas!

Hey everyone.

I was chatting with Kevin Gee on the phone the other day and it was suggested that instead of going for dinner at Milestone or Cactus Club on the 14th after the cruise, why don't we just have another BBQ type meal back at the Fintry campground. People can just grab a few groceries to pitch in or those who are not can contribute a little $ towards food. BYOB of course. Then we can make a post meet feast. What are your thoughts. Don't get this mixed up with the BBQ we are having on the Thursday we arrive in Fintry, but same kinda thing. It would be a lot cheaper than dishing of money for restaurant food, drinks and tip. There is parking at the campgrounds, as long as vehicles are not staying after 11:00pm (except those who are staying at the grounds of course).

yah, the gas is going to kill me. the last fill at 43ish litres gave me about 290km out of it. its going to take me 4 tanks just to get there and back. with the stock ecu i was not getting any cell codes but i think i might have some bunged o2 sensors

one more thing to change out before going. on a good note i powder coated my first car part tonight which was a spindle, due to having to change the ball joint and wheel bearing....i must say it looks freakin sweet, just have to see how well the paint holds after curing tonight.

Holy keerrraaappp! Has anyone looked at the long term forecast yet??? It's gonna be a scorcher!

Bring lots of Beer....ER....Sunscreen!

Yeah, I saw a high of 38 Deg C a couple days (real feel 43 C). That sounds about normal for Kelowna. Hopefully no one has TPS sensor issues again. I have a feeling that I will. I'll have to try cramming a bag of ice under my hood.

Yea Kelowna is abit hotter the normal this year. I called my rents in Vernon (30mn away) and it is a few degrees hotter then normal, make sure you have sunscreen and a shadyish area.

TAKE LOTS OF PICS FOR ME! I am missing out
