... broke. He volunteered countless hours for the parishes he attended on their financial committees and with the Knights of Columbus. He might best be remembered by the Air Cadet League of Alberta for his dedication to this youth program, first, as a Squadron Treasurer and Chairman, League Representative, and on to their Provincial fundraising coordinator. Some would say that he was a volunteer addict.<br><br>Married, widowed, re-married, and divorced, he dedicated ...

... writing about it and meeting new people. I have a second book to write (and it won't be another travel blog). I also am planning on writing a movie script and having it produced. I'm more creative when I'm traveling. <br><br>As usual, there is so much more meaning to what I write than may be obvious to others. I get it. Maybe some of you do too. One day it will make sense to everyone.<br><br>I'm still 2 weeks ...

Well, all good things must come to an end. Ben was there to meet us and we're home now, just unpacking a few souvenirs to make sure they made it back all in one piece. Looks like they have. The trip was great, every single minute! 3 weeks was the perfect amount of time ...

... the rockies in colour onto the B&amp;W to better show the mountain range.....all is to scale. Em here - The train journey (all 3 days of it) was really fun and a great way to see the countryside. It took over one day and one night before we were even out of the province of Ontario - massive to say the least! The sunset over the prairies was one to remember and there was a real sense of family with our ...

Our family split up today. The girls stayed with Elizabeth who took them (and Mali) to a waterpark. Sandra went to spend the day with Sandy and her kids, while Dennis and boys went on a hike in Kananaskis country. The hike took a few hours longer than expected, so it turned into a very nice, long visit for Sandra and Sandy! The evening ...

... underneath. Would I ever go back? At first thought, no - but there are still two less-touristed islands that I missed out on. And I really did like some parts of the Canaries - perhaps if I ever happened to be in the area again, but given its location, that really isn't feasible. Scotland and England had their moments on this trip - but I'm not in a big hurry to return to the UK. But I know that I'll be there again soon, because it ...

Well we leave tonight at 10 PM for London. I just finished packing and things are looking like they are in order. We are still running around doing many last minute things - I bought a duffel bag today and a few batteries. Melanie is still trying to finalize her thesis today and is going to submit it in the next hour or two...hopefully! We are both really looking forward to getting going tonight. I was counting the hours down at work this week. Itinerary is ...

... than 3 metres apart because there were grizzly sightings in the area. So we waited in the car park for 10 minutes or so and then a mother and daughter came along so we walked up there with them. This in itself was a bit embarrassing. You may or may not be able to tell from the pics that Marty and I usually walked with hiking boots on and carried about 6 litres of water in camelbacks. This mother and daughter combo were carrying one litre of water, the mother had a ...

... enjoy! I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind There was something so pleasant about that phase. Even your emotions had an echo In so much space And when you're out there Without care, Yeah, I was out of touch But it wasn't because I didn't know enough I just knew too much Does that make me crazy Does that make me crazy Does that make me crazy Probably And I hope that you are having the time of your life But think twice, that's my only advice Come on now ...
