Finally…….. in\u00a0two days we’ll fly to Canada<\/strong> again!!! This time for vacation but also some orientation in Regina and hopefully we can make a decision after our trip. Nico has some informative interviews scheduled and we’ll be spending quality time with friends (we’re staying at Tim’s again), esp. the Stephensons, who are going through a rough time. Danny and Dave are\/were two of our best friends there, Dave passed away pretty unexpectedly two weeks ago on my birthday (see my last post, he had cancer) and Danny just recently heard he has to battle the same thing (he’s on chemo now). It’s tough that we can’t see Dave anymore, but we’ll be happy to see Danny and to be able to finally give his family some support in person. We also hope to see a metal show and meet with lots of other people! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

But let’s not forget that we start with a good week in the Rockies, wooh! We have a rental car for all three weeks, so we’ll see a lot of prairie too! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
