Hi. Well most of my experiences have been very positive but I thought I would vent a bit today. I have a letter and pictures I would like to post but I can't get good connection with my computer to the internet so I am here at the public computer punching away at fickle key boards and will have to wait to post my letter with pictures.
I hope you are all doing well. I am able to post more on my facebook site so if you would like to update and review more pictures check out facebook.com. Once you sign up you can look for my address (I'm under a Philippine net work) and I can hook you up to my albums. Well I'm not a spokes person for facebook but for some reason I have less troubles getting connect to facebook.
Another concern I have is I can't believe how fast time is going. I have been away for more than 4 months!! I was sure a year would fly by but it's like the weeks are days.
I am enjoying work still and the weekends are filled with a variety of house chores, shopping, sailing, and I am also doing some running. They have a running club just like back home. Next month they are even doing some learn to run clinics. I'm sure I will meet some great people with this group. The leader is quite the amazing runner. He is 67 and has ran 102 real marathons (they often refer to any distance run as marathons so I usually clarify and check to see if they mean 26 miles? or 5 miles?) Well he is talking about some ultra marathon he would like to organize so I may have to decide how much running is going to be too much. There isn't going to be a problem of not enough.
I played a scrimmage soccer game with the high school boys and they were very proper gentle men passing me the ball and giving me a bit or running space. Overall I was struggling. (Before I come home I will have to dedicate some time to my ball.)
Well I have to get up before my knees seize. I hope to be able to update pictures soon

I just read your last 2 entries. You're making me jealous! Sounds like a relaxed way of life even when you're busy. As for the "good visitors" that part I can live without. Having them scurry through Estevan in the spring is enough for me.
The U 20 Mens World Cup just ended today. After watching them and then trying to picture you playing with teenage boys makes me smile. Speaking of soccer - Rebecca scored 3 goals in one game - she may not be a great player yet but I think she is their best forward right now.
Anyways I just wanted you to know I enjoy the blog. Have a good week.

Hi Anja
Well we don't have the ocean within reach here but we certainly are having the heat. Temperatures this last week or so have been in the 25 to 30 + range. We are doing things in the morning or evening staying in shade, air conditioning or by fans and drinking water by the gallon. The forecast for the next two weeks is more of the same, If this heat keeps up will I end up speaking Filipino?
Sara's grad was a fine event dresses were worn and tons of pictures taken. We had lots of company so it was a good get together. If I get some pictures gathered i'll mail some. I'm not sure if Rick took any pictures if he did i suspect they would be digital and maybe he can send them o you, I'm doing it the old way.
Neil is currently asphalting potholes for the town so he comes home looking like a puddle and heads to the basement to revive.
I have been very busy at work with some changes that are being made to our office, persoonel and workloads, so my previously nicely planned summer has gone down the tubes, oh well it's interesting and I am getting paid.
Mom goes this coming week to Camrose to get her head read! The pain behind her ear continues. Antibiotics are helping.
Liz is actually complaining about the heat and just to night said she may not complain this winter. Fickle promise!
Well thats the snapshot from wainwright, we're still thinking of you Harry
