A setting for a western, no but it could be. Kelowna's main street,
Bernard Avenue boasted five buildings in a row down one side of the street.
Cattle were ranging still at the time, and one old timer recalls coming
into Kelowna during a severe winter and hearing the hungry cattle bawling
on all sides. Eli Lequime had taken the initiative in building a general
store downtown Kelowna. Bernard Avenue is named for his son.
