Treat Yourself to The Miracle Worker
Imagine that you cannot see, cannot hear, and cannot really speak. This was the reality of Helen Keller, who ended up a Radcliffe College graduate (with honours), a famous author, lecturer on the speaking circuit, and an inspiration to many people with barriers of their own. There’s a theatre production on in town – until [...]
Kelowna’s B&B Scene
Wow – this year is just flying by! It’s already the May Long Weekend this weekend – the traditional kick-off to Kelowna’s high tourism season.
