I would probably do the leader thing again if the opportunity came up.

Maybe I can start my own chapter.

I kind of like Calgary, even more so when compared to Edmonton. But that's a whole nother story. Oh and Trump is a goof and that's my only comment on that.

I like Calgary, but I've lived in or near it my whole life. I like a lot of cities though. Currently big draw for this one is that my family lives here, so it's good to be near free babysitting, and it makes holidays easier when there are simple short car rides involved and not airplanes.

If I had no family and unlimited money, I'd probably move somewhere near an ocean, but no idea which one.

I'm just tired of dealing with people like the tow truck driver that pulled the no show last night. 2 I'll be there in 10 minutes, 1 I'll be there in 5 minutes followed by a 'OH, your still there, I thought you left. The goof jerked me around for 3 hours and never showed, I've run into to much of that type of crap in this town.

Measured the truck today to see if it will fit in the garage that I'm thinking of renting and it clears the door by 4".

Was a big snow year in the mountains. Ice stayed much longer than normal on the lakes. This shot is Upper Kananaskis lake, which I hiked around over the weekend with my brothers.
