cB. Sunday News, September 6, 1981 i i One féature of Brian’s new car that brought us a lot of _ pleasure on our trip to the interior is a cassette player. _ Even playing our old tapes .was pleasant but we got the most fun out of a boxful loaned to us by a friend. If you’re going on a car trip and have a tape deck in the car, comsider trading tapes with someone. In the box we had were a number of mystery tapes, labeled “Multi” or “HISORHTS* — really informative. They had everything.,.from gypsy violins ‘to fuill voice .choirs belting out the Battle Hymna of the Republic. Each side was 90 minutes of surprises. eee ‘Even though the car has air conditioning, we got terribly thirsty. I hereby vow that Tl never take another motor holiday without my’ big two-litre vacuum jug full of iced tea or lemonade. If I never see another luke-warm coke it will be too soon!

If you’re heading for the interior with a carload of kids, don't miss taking them to one of the big water slides that are springing up in many interior cities. Kelowna has two — both excellent. They cost in the $6 range per person which seems a lot but when you compare it to rides at an amusement park you get the proper perspective. If they like, kids can spend the whole day skidding down these waterfalls. There are picnic areas and hot dog stands. I can't think of anything more fun when the temperature hovers around 40. The slides are closely supervised but I wouldn't let any child go unaccompanied unless he could swim well.

I checked out a lot of fruit stands and found that the prices are a darn sight higher than they used to be. If you have time, listen to the classified ad. program on the Kelowna radio station — a lot of people with a few fruit trees in their back yard were calling in and offering fruit at give-away prices, just so it wouldn't go to waste. When I make peach jam, | want tree-ripened fruit that is practically squishy. There’s none to be had at the stands and they keep those green baseballs they try to peddle. eee If you get to Armstrong, don’t miss the cheese fac- tory. The prices are good and so's the cheese.
