What a great summer to celebrate British Columbia’s 150^th anniversary. Whether you opt for a day trip or weekend getaway around southwestern B.C., there are more ways to explore this “Super Natural” province than anywhere else on earth. This only stands to reason. After all, with enough room to squeeze Washington State, Oregon, California and Hawaii within its borders, British Columbia offers major-league attractions for those eager to adventure beyond their backyards.

The rewards? Labour Day to Thanksgiving is one of the best times to explore B.C.: sunny skies; bountiful local produce; grape harvests; fall festivals; and no bugs!

A big note of thanks to all the readers who helped put the Christie’s latest guide book, “Best Weekend Getaways from Vancouver,” on the B.C. best-seller list over the past three months.
