I mentioned a few days ago how I'd gone to the mountains looking for winter because it wasn't in Calgary any more.

Big mistake.... Huge. This was my view this morning, on what was actually "Cycle to Work" day in Calgary. Brrrr. Jasper stayed at home.


Nevertheless I'm going back to the mountains this weekend, to Lake Louise which has to be one of my favourite places in the world. I've rented what seems to me an enormous car, featuring an extra pedal that I'm not too sure what to do with. But I've had a little drive around this evening and I hardly hit anything.

This week I have been mostly flat hunting, still without success. Work will put me up for another month but I really want to get settled soon. Just a question of lowering my housing hopes I guess. Outside of that the playoffs continue to entertain. The Penguins and Sidney Crosby have been eliminated (boo!) but the Flames are back level with Detroit (yay!). I never thought I'd say it but "Go Flames Go!"
