Just come back from the dog park with Henry - he's ok as long as it's snowy or dry, wet? Forget it! He will only get his paws wet if he has to. He has refused to walk in a puddle, to the point we've had to go back the way we came from

We're thinking snowfreeness in a couple of years, just slowly starting to get some ideas together

More Van Island than Van, also thinking Penticton type areas. The other train of thought is the east coast for summer and somewhere warm for winter. Daughter still has two years of school, but we have decided to start consolidating our belongings Everything depends on when our second home sells though, we may have to sell up in Red Deer and move out to Alix once DD finishes school and still keep the Alix home up for sale. Your pics always make me wistful for the Island.

The rain is in no way a myth. I've been there in March numerous times.

Besides my family is all in Calgary.

I love to visit but could never live there.

As I've seen some Edmonton bashing, I think it only fair to present some of the glorious views I've been lucky enough to capture recently

Normally I wouldn't post pictures of me or my family...treasuring some degree of anonymity and all that. But, my 2 year old wanted to go feed the ducks this morning and it was a bit chilly, so we bunded her up. I think her identity is well protected.
