What a long strange trip it's been

Walnut Boat and this page will be making the overnight trip back to the 604 in about 12 hours. It's only been a week, but it feels like a month, which may just be the rate of temporal distortion for extended holiday travels during an election campaign.

This trip was better than I thought it would be, and there were a few surprises: the rumour circulating around Sundre that Myron Thompson was giving out Xmas turkeys to those who were financially supporting his "cause" and hearing the project manager for my mother-in-law's soon-to-be-completed condominium openly criticize the Alberta government for privatizing building and elevator inspections. The biggest surprise, however, has to be that Co-op stores sell beer in Alberta.

I'm packing up my boxing day loot and getting ready to ship out. Here's hoping Vancouver is as close as it looks on the TV while the Canucks are losing to the @#$! Oilers and Flames....
