Fencing, landscaping and small building restoration projects.There are many hiking and mountain biking areas, fishing camping and other water sports. Wine tasting tours in the many world class wineries in the area. We are 4-5 hours fr Banff, Jasper and Manning National parks as well as Vancouver. Many music festivals in the area and a lot of plays and live performances. My Wife and I have a wellness clinic where we practice Hypnotherapy and Biomagnetic Pair Therapy out of a home based office.
