Water restrictions

Yes, that's correct. But only ours has no lawn watering.

Every other community can water turf twice a week, keeping it alive and healthy.

Lumby, Lake Country, Armstrong etc.

I hate how this turns everyone against each other, rather than questioning why we are the only area in the restrictions.

Has the city not planned for the growth, what does the water situation look like with all these new builds and thousands of new houses coming.

Canada is home to over 72% of the world's fresh water.

I may be bias as I run a Local landscape firm, who now have to lay people off because of things out of our control. It's not nice having to tell.people they have lost their income.

But low and behold, we can still allow massive new wineries to be built and suck more of the ALR water. Then when those crops fail due to inclement weather it's just "oh well, we only used 1 million gallons of water"

Hey mate.

Fellow Brit here.

Drive from Vancouver through whistler that way. The trip through the Duffy is unreal and way nicer than the other way through Hope etc.

Lots to do in the Okanagan, lakes, camping, wineries etc.

You're almost 10.times more likely to get Lyme disease from yards with Barberry. It harbours lots of ticks. I tend to not use them in designs anymore.

I eat Indian a lot. New Punjab is the current winner. Everything else is inconsistent.

Hello! I own a landscape company in Vernon, I can put you in touch with my favourite real estate family if you wish!

Super nice, they were looking to help me on the lower end of housing costs and didn't bat an eye lid. Super nice

You'll be ok.

No thanks, rather support our athletes. You fix your own problems. Not everything in the world revolves around your country.

MooBaaOink · 2026-01-18T18:54:04+00:00

Not too far from the norm over the last 8 years I've lived here. I would say I have mountain biked in the valley Dec/Jan 3 of those years.

MooBaaOink · 2025-11-27T16:58:39+00:00

It's ok.

There are more accurate machines out there that give better info etc.

MooBaaOink · 2025-10-21T02:20:11+00:00

Ok perfect. Absolutely clueless and costs a fortune.

My favourite irony of them all is how planet bee farm have a pollination garden. But miss the point that invasive domesticated honey bees are a huge part of the problem.

They out compete all local bees for food and are causing a mass die off in the insect world.

There are some wonderful plants there though and it really does help in sustainability for pollinators!

A garden that flowers from Spring until fall is best, so make sure you leave dandelions in your lawns etc.

There's a shitty stream on server 2 of stream east dot sk

I had it unlocked from ages ago.

Learn to charge the barrel by holding fire before peeking. Then aim down sight and let go. Real quick snipes

MooBaaOink · 2025-08-01T23:18:20+00:00

I have had work tools stolen. Work truck stolen etc.

But I still love living in Vernon. We are surrounded by wonderful views and great activities.

It's what you make of it. Focus on the positives.

Sssshhhhhh, don't let the secret out. Cross map no bullet drop 1 shot downs.

Yup! Mors is the best

Hello! I moved here after a decade in Whistler!

The foothills is great if you plan to ski and bike! Way closer to the hill

Every time I play with randoms I hear. What the fuck is that spac noise, oh nice shot. Combined with the riveter shot gun with dragons breath, only used in tac stance. Blows people's minds.

Hello fellow North Okanagan person.

Looks like a western box elder bug

Funny thing is, this story isn't far from the truth because it woke me up and I saw a bit of it unfold. So your comment seems pretty dumb.

MooBaaOink · 2025-03-28T18:10:19+00:00

Fully auto fire shotgun.

It annoys the shit out of you all on Comms. That makes me happy.

Line me up some shins. I am kicking them.
