News Update

Another week has passed and we have moved on from Lake of the Woods to Lake Wascana and finally to Lake Okanagan! We plan to enjoy a couple days of relaxation here before completing the trip to the Pacific! We are travelling with Liam and Kristian, and driving our car as well as Eric/A's Mazda. Dave helped me recharge the AC on the Mazda while we were in Regina and that was a nice relief while driving the last couple of days. Wendy is driving our car with the boys. We arrived in the Okanagan on Friday evening, and are enjoying our time at John & Marion's—thanks guys! Despite the short week after the holiday Monday, the TSX had a good week and appears to be only about 120 points from returning to bull territory. I also had a good week, and managed to gain more than my quota for the first time in months. The Riders managed to play four quarters of football, but it was not enough as they fell to Edmonton and are no longer in first place. Keep working guys! Another week without golf, but I'm hoping to check out the situation around Parksville next week. 

Eric/A and Haaken are following us west, and got into Calgary tonight. Eric is driving the Uhaul truck pulling a motorcycle trailer, and the  Erica driving the Honda CRV. They should catch up to us tomorrow. 

Erin is into her second week of work at Taylor Toyota. She is enjoying it very much. The sale on Mark's house fell through when he found out that "pre-approved" ≠ "pre-approved"! So, it's back on the market and we hope for a new buyer who does have financing available! 

Travis is taking care of things back home in Thunder Bay... now three time zones ahead of us. It's a big country! 

And that's about it for this week.
