remnants of the trail remain for historical hikes. The first permanent valley settlements were established in 1840 by Father Charles Pandosy of the Oblates of Mary. Missionary camps were located at the head of Okanagan Lake and near what is now Kelowna. The valley population grew with the discovery of gold on the Fraser River in 1858 and in the Cariboo region in 1861.

dream of having a job close to a beach isn’t a reality in most cases. Although there still should be a choice of where you desire to live. Maybe to be happy you need to consider moving outside of Canada. On the other hand, you could choose a job in Kelowna, Vancouver or even Newfoundland.

Not a fan of children I am not a big fan of kids. I realized this when I started babysitting. It seems like a great idea when you’re fourteen and wanting to make some money, but I quickly realized that babysitting is not for everyone. The first time I babysat it was for my neighbors who had a little boy and girl and its how my fear of children started. I arrived around four thirty and I was supposed to be there until around ten.

Tales of journeys appear repeatedly throughout the expanse of literature; these sagas include the stories of Gilgamesh, King Arthur, and, more recently, The Lord of the Rings. Derek Walcott’s poem “The Schooner Flight” initially seems out of place amongst these surging legends of heroics and danger, yet through closer examination the poem flourishes as a postmodern retelling then deconstruction of the age-old heroic journey. The poem is a celebration of Greek mythology, a disruptive force against
