Welcome to Colleen’s Corner. This is a column meant for fun and some information About myself: I am a Freelance Photographer you often see me on the side of the road or in various places taking photos of different things animals, birds, places, people etc. l have lived in Lumby for over 8 years, you have seen my photos in the newspaper (Lumby Valley Times) and once in awhile in the Vernon Morning Star, and the Lumby Art Gallery. Photography is my passion. Disclaimer: The information on some of my photos that I write about a lot of times come from the Internet or books I research them, hopefully the facts are as close to the truth as I can come.

Wow! Did you get a chance to go around Lumby this past Saturday May 9. It was spectacular! The weather was awesome, and so many things were happening around Lumby all at once.
There was a market at Sheardown’s. A market over at JW Inglis, Rona had their big grand opening with a BBQ. The thrift store had a burn out bag sale. Cruising the Okanagan car show and shine with of course some beautiful cars.
The 4×4 club had a show and shine as well.
The Monashee CO-OP had demonstrations. MAC had art demos, and mini barn quilt painting.
The Legion had a large meat draw. The Okanagan Outpost has some delicious hard ice cream with a ton of flavours.
Everywhere you went in Lumby on Saturday were great events, most were within walking distance of each other.
I hope you got a chance to go to some of these events, if not all of them.
It was a beautiful day for everything that was happening, and I of course wore my sunglasses, and as you all know; it’s always a great day when you can wear your sunglasses!
