Good morning BC and guests.

I have been to the PNE as a kid, but I really don't care for crowds, so it really doesn't interest me.

Actually, the lower mainland as a whole doesn't interest me.

So far, not too bad. Gotta go over to the drug store and get a new passport picture sometime soon. My parents are going to Kamloops on Wednesday, and they will turn in my renewal papers at the passport office there. Should cut the waiting time in half over mailing it.

How is your monday going?

Morning everyone. Jason, I don't think they require a passport to get into Kamloops anymore.

I hope it is easier for you guys then it is for us Canadians! For awhile, it was taking 6months to get a passport if you mailed the forms in, and that was if there was no mistakes. It was alot quicker if you filled out the forms at a passport office, but there is very few passport offices in the rural areas.

It is the passport office there that I am interested in It is the nearest passport office to Smithers (almost 900km).

We paid extra to get our passports fast tracked back in 05 or 06. Still took 2 months. But better than the 6 at the time.

Now that you mention it, we gotta get our daughter on one of ours, or get her her own. So far, her birth certificate is working to get into the States, but it won't work forever.

Went to a cousin's house for a barbecue yesterday. Their basement, and garage have come a long way from being unfinished. Looks pretty good.

Wow, 900 klicks. That stinks. Knowing me I'd get there and realize I forgot something.
