Thanksgiving long weekend, and it is a sweater one: cloudy and about 13 on Saturday, then Sunday clears up at around 12. Sunday afternoon, Gray Monk in Lake Country has Jazz & Vines from 2 to 4, three wines with small bites and live jazz and blues overlooking the lake. Saturday afternoon, Grizzli W**ery in West Kelowna has a free Fall Fest market with live music.
If you want a day out, Armstrong’s Harvest Pumpkin Festival has its free Family Day Saturday morning at the fairgrounds, with the giant pumpkin weigh in and the Great Pumpkin Launch. And Naramata Gathers is on right now across the Bench, through Monday. Sunday is the clear day, so save Knox Mountain for the view.

Friday is a little damp, then the weekend settles into mild, dry fall weather: Saturday cloudy and around 19, Sunday clear and around 20. Saturday is the busy one. The Okanagan Coffee Fest at the Laurel Packing House in Kelowna runs in tasting sessions all weekend with about thirty specialty roasters and a new latte art competition. Red Bird Brewing turns its North Kelowna backyard into an Oktoberfest party with Kolsch, sausages and lawn games.
If you do not mind a drive, the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory south of Kaleden opens to the public Saturday from 10 to 5, free, with tours, talks and kids’ activities. Just leave the phone off, the telescopes are running. Sunday is the clear day, so Myra Canyon is the pick: 18 trestles and two tunnels on the old Kettle Valley rail bed before the snow arrives, and the Fire Department open house on Bernard Avenue makes an easy family start to the morning.
