I'm doing great, Mistah Wayne! How're you? I've been meaning to check in with you. I thought about you on 3/15, wondering if you have a new title? Catch me up on your news...I'm trying to catch up on everything I've been missing around here these past few days, an impossible task, even if I exclude the feed store! (Don't tell Jess! :-X :-*)

Hey Lynne you were once talking about moving ... is that still on? What's the latest? :D

Wayne, I'll bring the rock, and the shot guns shell. And the sage. And the picture.
I told someone tonight I nailed a piece of my heart to the movie screen when I seen Brokeback Mountain.
When I go up there, I expect to see the pointed end of the nail. Jus' commin out the air.

Lovely way to put it, Truman!
We do need to get organized on this...with smaller groups of 6, I don't know how much flexibility we'll have with the riding. I told Lauren I didn't *have* to be in your group, that her group would be cool with me, or another one, wherever I fit, but that you and Wayne oughta be put together so we'll at least be paired with folks we know and love. Daryl needs to be with me because he probably won't know anybody else yet.
I had a long phone call today with Milli and I think it's becoming more crucial for us to get our act together - I'm getting the Alberta travel guide next week so we can get going on looking at lodging and camping spots. I emailed my friend Gary today asking for the details from his trip there last summer. He and his fiancee found some good camping from what I understand.
Here's my sketchy plan at the moment:
Try to be there 7/21 - 7/31. I know that seems extravagant, but this is my first *real* vacation in about 6 years, otherwise it's just been long weekends, so I want to make the most of it. I'm looking at putting Mom in respite care for the last two weeks of July to give Chris a break too.
I'm hoping to cross paths with Milli 7/21-22 in or around Edmonton because she is leaving to go to Europe toward the end of the month for her sister's graduation in Europe - her plans are still murky, tho. Our call really got us going though, so I think plans will start to come together soon.
The only official things I know I'm signed up for is the hike up Jack Ascending on the 24th and the riding on the 26th. Are y'all up for the hike and the rodeo too? I believe it's the 25th, but don't hold me to that.
I think we should go in together and rent an SUV or minivan or something, don't you?

I still want to move - the west coast keeps calling, but no definite plans right now. My resume is in good shape, but for some reason I'm not able to wrap my brain around the logistics of moving Mom, finding new doctors, and all that. So I'm sort of just hanging out, regrouping, saving some $$$ because having that danged house for so long made a serious dent in my finances. I'm thinking of looking for another job locally (Huntsville or Nashville) where I can get some Java and web development experience before I make a bigger move. Those are serious gaps in the resume at the moment.

I'm glad to hear it! Progress is excellent - I'm very proud of you and brag about you whenever I'm given an opportunity! You be sure to let me know the details because I intend to invite myself down for a celebratory dinner. :D
