over the hills and through the woods...

...to Calgary, Alberta I'll go.

I've made my reservations and have paid in full. Rain or shine I will be on a flight Monday, August 1st from Portland to San Francisco to Calgary and back on the 10th the same way I came. Whoever has heard of such strange flight arrangements!?

This will be my first time not driving up but taking a flight from Portland to there... I'm kinda sad that I will be missing all the lovely sights to see on the drive... but I've reserved window seats, so maybe, just maybe I'll get lucky and there will be some great sights from the air.

I am looking forward to seeing the cousins and aunt and uncle again... oh and the wee ones... they're fun too. There is a new-lil'-bie to the bunch I'm told... Are you a boy? I can't wait to meet you.
