Road-tripping Chickens & a Hetero Aussie Male at Large in San Francisco: Recipes for Disaster??


We are official participants in the HR MacMillan Space Centre's Mars Watch...

Iris and Christa are off to the Sports Rehab Clinic to try and take the kinks out of Iris' body after her first go at a climbing wall yesterday. Hope Dr. Yee can do something for her, otherwise I am going to hear a lot of high-German cursing from the backseat this afternoon as we drive up to Kamloops for my friends' 40th wedding anniversary party. We're also heading from there to Iris' aunt's cabin on a lake a couple of hours north of Kamloops on Saturday. When we asked Iris if she remembered how to get to the cabin, we got an alarmingly vague response... but this isn't the first time either Christa or Iris have been lost in Canada. I'm starting to think they quite enjoy it.

Christa and I bought new speakers for the car last night so we wouldn't go mad on the drive up, but we could only get the driver's side speaker to work (that's all I need!)... Will we go stir-crazy and kill each other?? Stay tuned...

Meanwhile, down in San Francisco, our Aussie friend Steve has been having adventures of his own...

Steve will be in Las Vegas only two days before the chickens, unless he wins BIG and ends up in a suite at the Bellagio. Read his journal here.
