we got a late start outta town friday night and that, coupled with shitty construction through calgary and construction again on the road north to saskatoon, we were on the road for nearly 22 hours....good times. sleep came at a premium and junk food was our good buddy along the way..sure, we took some good food from caper's and such in the cooler, but an a&w burger is pretty awesome at midnight just as you hit the road....ang and shauna took turns driving as i took turns sitting upfront and lying in the back of the car...in the middle of the day i had the back hatch open and just watched as the miles disappeared behind us...
today we had a late start but after hanging around the house getting our collective acts together we went out and hit the town. we had a short visit with shauna's grandma pearl - who is 91 not 95 as earlier reported...she's a pistol to be sure....we had an interesting time at the local hipster coffee shop...we may not be able to go back there anymore...i know i use the word idiot a lot but, the woman serving us was an idiot.
dinner is ribs tonight and i'm just sitting back willing to lend a hand if needed but it's a small space for one big man and three woman to squeeze into so i'm hanging back for now - until the ribs are ready and then i'll be right in there...hell, i made some of the breakfast this morning so i don't feel that guilty...well, maybe a little....
more as it develops....
