I'm heading into Calgary on Tuesday morning and have a dinner date with my daughters for that night.

I was thinking of connecting with as many Calgarian TMWer's as possible Wednesday. Gee, how fast can a pub night be arranged???? :roll:

Hiya Doc

Glad you got off all right. Here's to many happy miles ahead.

Okay, I have to say this now while it's fresh in my mind...

KarateChick and family are good people!!!!

I was met out in Stoney Plain on Sunday, by two people I have never met before. They led me back to their home and treated me like a family member for the two days I was there. I had the honour of taking their youngest, (KC jr.) for her first ride. Oh yeah, and her second...

I don't think words are enough to express my gratitude for the fabulous hospitality.

Thanks KC and clan...
