Kaunis Lakefront omaisuus Naramata, British Columbia, Kanada

My brother Steve built Hollyhock as a retirement home for our parents Dianne and George Tidball. Our mother came to Naramata from Shanghai during World War 11 and our grandmother bought lakefront property while our grandfather was interned in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. Following the war my grandfather returned to Shanghai in charge of the Far East Division of Unilever. After the Communist takeover my grandparents and mother returned to Naramata and built the holiday resort Sandy Beach Lodge -- three doors down the beach. My parents met at Penticton High.

Later on my parents and three children moved to Boston while our Dad studied and graduated from Harvard as a Baker Scholar. We always returned to Naramata every summer and stayed upstairs at Sandy Beach Lodge. When back in Canada in the 1960s my mother urged my Dad to get a McDonald's franchise and he did--for Western Canada!
Later my Dad started the Keg Restaurant chain and helped my mother build Thunderbird Show Park. My sister Jane still manages Thunderbird Show Park and invites show jumpers from around the world to our World Cup competitions. My sister Laura competed in two Olympic show jumping competitions and now trains competitors.

As the oldest sibling Kathy I manage Hollyhock while helping run our family pasture raised poultry farm.
