Grrr technology
Read your blog- nicely done! You scrub up well ( I glanced at this bit but all that muck would just mess up my fur and whiskers!) Nice photos, the weather looked pretty kind considering the time of year, some lovely blue skies. We've gotta visit sometime, it looks really interesting.

Thanks My writing isn't the best, I feel it's very rushed and I hate proof reading.

Yeah we were very lucky with the weather. There were some quite warm days as well

Went for a walk in Langley. 100 yards from the car park we turned a corner and, not 20 feet away, was a great big black bear. If walking backwards around a corner very quickly ever becomes an Olympic event I am odds on for a podium finish.

Sounds like a cross between the Paralympics and Monty Python.

It certainly does and you just proved it again.

I do a lot of this by the way. It's part of my job (although not usually part of my BE posting).

Thanks for picking up on something that I have already acknowledged myself...

To everyone else thanks for the positive feedback about my blog

My right side of the body seems to hate me. Elbow, wrist, knee and ankle joints all hurt.

I'm just in that sort of mood at the moment. Don't take it personally.

If someone from say BC is sent to Alberta for hospital treatment, does BC assist the patient to return home?

I just read an article about someone eating a poisonous mushroom in Victoria, who was initially admitted to the hospital there, but then transferred to an Edmonton hospital.

I've see articles mention this before, and always wondered if the patient upon discharge has any assistance in getting back home.

If it is any reassurance Beckie, I am dreadful at rereading posts, often I am writing them when Im on my exercise bike on my ipad. I use voice dictation software at work as well and am often very lazy and dont check my charting and it sometimes misinterprets what I say very embarrassingly! Snoop however is quite happy to point out my mistakes!
