Blue river get a tun of snow cold and alot of mosketoes in the summer if you think Manitoba has alot wait till you see Blueriver. Clearwater is a bit better and you can still get a good deal on a house there. I looked a 3600sf house there they only wanted 170 for it mundyou that was when we came back here, but in Kamloops it would have went for 400 - 500k.

Heh,heh. After 30 yrs. driving to and from Thompson, including multi trips ever winter out west for bowling, not much in the way of highway travel can surprise me. Yea, dont need those skitters anymore Bill.

Its a bit to far away anyways. At one time though somewhere like that would be my preference but not my wifes.

I,m off to look for Clearwater Bill.

Have you considered Vernon? Only an hour drive south of Kamloops. Three lakes to enjoy in the summer, great ski hill Silver Star. Not quite as crazy as Kelowna for Real Estate.

Actually we have talked about it but not looked at real estate there. If not someplace in the middle may be nice.

Well yeah, if you don't mind living out in the boonies, there are probably some good deals to be had on larger properties out of town. There's not much between Vernon & Kamloops as far as communities though, very small towns, Westwold, Falkland. Salmon Arm or Sicamous a little farther east on Hwy 1 might also be worth looking at.
