When I asked Jim what he liked most about living at Sedona Heights<\/a>, he said, the commute. Not something I was used to hearing in congested Vancouver. But in the Okanagan, commuting has a very different feel. Jim commutes from Summerland to Keremeos every weekday, about a 45 minute scenic drive through the Similkameen \"\"<\/a>Valley. Instead of bumper to bumper traffic, this commute is full of orchards and farms, lakes and rivers, quaint towns, Big Horn sheep and mountain goats clinging to mountain cliffs. Keremeos is home to some of the best fruit stands in the Okanagan. Many of the farmers there are fixtures at the Penticton Farmers Market<\/a>.<\/p>\n
