Welcome,
My Mom is in Peachland and I get out now and then. I will have to Google Vaseaux ? ( aha , just south of Skaha )
I have used Woods Lake Outside Kelowna. I have seen tracks from others on those lakes but always been alone. Have my eye on Swan Lake in Vernon. Any
idea of lake conditions in the Okanagan valley ?
Our Lakes at Whistler are snow on water , on ice. Terrible !!!!!! Must travel to kite ! 
I think Mom may get a visit next weekend if the roads are passable! I will U2U you on here if I do!

BR - Can you poke around and see if the ice carving is happening in Vernon this weekend? If so, let me know when you get back so I can get current
contact info to them for next year. (Staring up on my bookshelf at the People's Choice Award from 2008 or 2009 I think.) Took a break when we were
pregnant with Anna and need to get my name back in the loop.
