It was a crappy ending to the unofficial start of summer - literally.
And, while it had nothing to do with COVID-19 or physical distancing, it did require quite a bit of hand washing and sanitizing.
Jenn Wasman says her home in Kelowna's Springvalley area was pelted by feces late Monday afternoon.
"It smelled like mint at first," said Wasman of the deluge that fell about 5 p.m.
After the mint dissipated, she says the smell was unbearable.
Wasman says the poop fell all over her backyard, on the deck, in the pool and on people enjoying the final hours of the long weekend.
She says she called the Kelowna airport to find out what may have caused the stinky downpour.
"He said it didn't come from an airplane.
"He told me if it came from a plane there would have been a blue tint to it."
It was definitely not blue, Wasman told Castanet News.
