Canada O Canada...

Dear Friends,

So normally I have to kinda hit the highlights of my week to make my life sound more glamorous than it really is.  This week (especially this weekend) was an exception.  I left work at 2 o'clock on Thursday and got in a car for Canada.  During this excursion to the North much happened.  We toured the grand city of Vancouver seeing the sights and meeting folks from all over the globe.  It turns out that Vancouver is a working destination for the nations...folks get work visas for two years to Canada and many gather in Vanouver.  Our favorite folks came from Australia.  Also, we went skydiving on our way up to Whistler.  Once in Whistler we spent a day at the beach, went mountain biking in arguably the best place in the world, and met many more foreigners.  Whistler is becoming even busier than normal since the Winter Olympics will be held there in less than a year.  I'd suggest that anyone with the chance should go there either for skiing or mountain biking.  

There was much more, but I hit the highlights.  This next week will be busy at work loading up trains and getting ready for a month in training down South.  I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things after a much needed break.
