Holy Cow! I am almost positive the hill in the back used to be the view from my bedroom window in high school! I was pissed when they built the radio tower up there since it was just open range land before that went up. It was the BC Road Wise sign that got me looking closer at the locale. I guess Kamloops has changed some though: used to be more GNR's Paradise City than what the sign would indicate it is now.

The General Reinwald one is an urban legend more recently attributed to Australian General Cosgrove. Quick google of "General Reinwald and NPR" gets it. Snopes.com did a thing on it ( http://www.snopes.com/military/reinwald.asp ) and one of the folks there included this parallel: A couple went on vacation to a fishing resort up north. The husband liked to fish at the crack of dawn. The wife liked to read. One morning the husband returned after several hours of fishing and decided to take a short nap. Although she wasn't familiar with the lake, the wife decided to take the boat out. She rowed out a short distance, anchored, and returned to reading her book. Along came the sheriff in his boat. He pulled up alongside her and said, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?" "Reading my book" she replies as she thinks to herself, "Isn't it obvious?" "You're in a restricted fishing area," he informed her. "But officer, I'm not fishing. Can't you see that?" "Yes, but you have all the equipment. I'll have to take you in and write you up." "If you do that, I'll have to charge you with rape," snapped the irate woman. "But, I haven't even touched you," groused the sheriff. "Yes, that's true," she replied, "but you do have all the equipment."
