Last night I went with Charlene, Jana and Johnathan to the Oilers game against Calgary. We had seats in the gold section (the lower bowl) but the best part was we had Club Access! That means we can go downstairs to the entrance of the Oilers Locker room and watch them come in and out. […]

Last night Adam and I went to the preseason game against the Florida Panthers. It was pretty good watching because of all the excitement. The game ended 5 to 4. I thought we came out very strong in the first period with 2 goals. Then 10 sec into the second, Panthers scored and that seemed […]
K9 Champ and stuff

I went to the Championships with Charlene on Sautrday. It was very family oriented with lots of parents with kids. The competition had two parts, obedience and agility as well as a police scenario.

One trimmed the hay, one seperated the grain from the stalk, one was an automatic wood splitter. Very spiffy! There was also a horse team pulling competition. We watched […]

Ange, Winnie and I went to Josh Groban last night. The tickets were discounted so Winnie bought last minute and there were empty seats around us so we just moved to another location and sat together. It was really good. His silky voice is easy on the ears(haha). He has a very likable and approachable […]
Camping at Cadomin

Adam and I went camping at Cadomin Caves near Hinton last week. It was pretty great because we saw a lot of wildlife and went on good walks. Caving at Cadomin was pretty cool. The cave is not touristy and the hour and half walk to the entrance is very steep and hard. On our […]
