Press Release - July Arts and Culture at Sun Peaks

The latest Sun Peaks Resort Press Release announces July festivals, including several foodie events. And, believe it or not, Kevin Costner (yes, *that* Kevin Costner, the famous movie star) will sing with his band "Modern West" in a free outdoor concert.

If you are planning a longer stay at Sun Peaks, you may wish to consider Delta Residences at Sun Peaks. Even the one-bedroom suites include the conveniences of home such as an en-suite washer/dryer. Coinciding with the July festivals is the weekly Sunday Farmer's Market so you can prepare your meals in each suite's fully equipped kitchen with Stainless Steel appliances.

Sun Peaks, BC - July will be the perfect time to soak in Sun Peaks’ outdoor ambiance at two festivals dedicated to fine fare and culture. The well established Wine & Culture Festival (July 6 to 8) will be joined by the new Liquid Gold: Beer & Whisky Festival (July 27 to 28), continuing to grow Canada’s Alpine Village as a summer destination for those looking to enjoy the finer things in life.

“The arts and culture scene is growing every year at Sun Peaks,” says Christopher Nicolson, president of Tourism Sun Peaks. "The Wine & Culture Festival, the new Liquid Gold Festival and Art Zone Workshops make Sun Peaks appeal to more than just sports enthusiasts."

B.C. wines, fine local ingredients and gifted regional musicians and artists will once again combine in perfect harmony for The 5th Annual Wine & Culture Festival. In its fifth year, the event continues to grow as a signature weekend getaway for wine and culture lovers from across the local region, the Lower Mainland and Washington. Organizers are preparing to ascend last year’s success which saw several sold out events.

In addition to classic favourites such as the Symphony of Flavours wine tasting and tapas and the Sunburst BBQ & Mid-Mountain Trio Serenade, local artist Debbie Milner will be hosting a new art workshop. Guests will learn how to enhance their own painting style while working with the natural elements surrounding them.

“This weekend has come into its own as a signature Sun Peaks event,” says Nicolson. "Obviously, we are every excited Kevin Costner will be performing on the same weekend, but it means people must book in advance."

The new Liquid Gold: Beer & Whisky Festival spans two days and features the finest in high quality liquor and premium beer. Participants will attend a beer seminar hosted by one of Kamloops’ favourite restaurants, The Noble Pig, and a whisky seminar. Sun Peaks restaurants will also be offering different specials and events around the intimate, pedestrian village. And for those who can't wait that long, our Mountain of Beer & Chili Cook-Off is happening during our Summer Kick-Off Weekend (June 30 to July 1).

Art Zone workshops will also be available throughout the summer. Guests will have the opportunity to learn from local artists on a variety of mediums.

Sun Peaks Resort is proud to be adding these unique events to its summer calendar.

“We are excited to be offering these new events,” says Nicolson. “It expands the resort's appeal to a wider audience and reflects the growing diversity at Sun Peaks.”

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en

Meet Melissa Gaines and her blurry sexy pics

Oh boy! I had no sooner finished posting about the lovely Taylor Burch responding to my personals ad on Craigslist when Melissa Gaines (e-mailing from erikmcclure858@yahoo.com) mailed me a couple more pictures of her lithe body and selling her profile on the same looks-like-a-phishing-scam site (http://craigslistsafe.net/profiles/melx3/). One of them was an NSFW naked-breasts pic which I haven't posted here (sorry -- but honestly, nothing to write home about, especially with the serious bikini tan lines).

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.
