Default smithers, burns lake

Thanks,

I am in the lower Fraser valley. I hate it! too busy for me. I've done my
time in large cities, 15 years in Toronto. I work remotely so have the
ability to go anywhere. We are looking for a nice town to raise a couple of
kids in peace and quiet. And that area, well the price is right up there.
We are total out doorsey people so it sounds nice. I spent some time in
Canmore Alberta, and loved it. But the prices are too high, and it's too
much of party town for my liking. We are trying to get up there soon, but
the weather hasn't agreed much this fall. Thanks for the input.

Trish
