Mojo Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 Do we have anyone on the board from BC , particularly the Kamloops BC area? I have an unusual favor to ask. My wife owns property in Williams Lake, BC. Her father owned it when he died 20 years ago and she hasn't visited since a little girl. We pay taxes on it every year and I'd like to know what it looks like without traveling if possible. If you have a digital camera and are in the area of Williams Lake, or are planning a trip, shoot me an email and maybe we can work something out to get some digital pics of the property and building that is on it. I pour plastics, so we could trade, or I can pay cash if it's reasonable. I have to admit, the last I heard about it was that it's sometimes used by squatter hunters during the winter, and may be very run down. I'm not sure what property taxes are in BC but the value from the tax office is in the neighborhood of $10,000 for land and buildings. Thanks for any and all help in advance.

Markell Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 It might be fun to find it on http://terraserver.com. I have located every home I have lived in. Unless you know of a recognizable landmark, it might not be that easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojo Posted November 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I'll try it, but having never visited it I don't know what to look for. Also, I couldn't find it in mapquest, only the town of Williams Lake. I'll try my Streets and Trips program at work tomorrow night and see it that will pull up the physical address.

Markell Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 The process that has worked for me is to first find a street intersection or verifiable address that you can point the map to. then if you know the direction and distance from that point start clicking. Or just follow a road. I have followed the Chattahoochee river from the Seminole dam all the way to Atlanta. Very sad but I have been injured and bored.

Big Splash Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hey Mojo, I'm in that area several times each year. I missed your post, and I drove trough there this last weekend. It's about 4 hours south of here. (also 4 hours north of Kamloops) It's fantastic fishing country, you might as well plan a trip! I'll send you a PM.
