remembering Rob Glaser

Ron Shewchuk:

Beautiful video by Michael Glaser documenting a trip by family and friends up Two Pine to commemorate the anniversary of his dad Rob’s passing. Thanks for this, Michael. It’s a fitting tribute that generously shares the experience to those who couldn’t be there today. I can feel the snow on my face.

New Years 10km

leave a comment »

10am January 1st we lined up to start the Tequila 10.

It was fast, perhaps a new New Years time record.

Keep your eyes on the road, Jason.

For the historical record, Dave Adlard won the late night poker game. I took home the Silver medal.

paint ball New Years

leave a comment »

Dave Adlard has his own paintball course and gear. I joined in the annual tradition of doing unto others before they do unto ME.

Here’s why you ALWAYS wear a face shield.

That was a fluke shot. Right?

Here’s Andy Jan. 1st, 2012.

A paintball can suck the eyeball right out of the socket.

New Zealand #1

leave a comment »

Sounds like the Longs have enjoyed New Zealand best of all on their Round the World family holiday.

… We have been traveling and staying with the Closson family since we arrived. Clossons are our friends from Saskatoon, for those of you who do not know them. They are on an ambitious one year round the world tour. Kim lived here when he was younger and so still has many friends and connections. Fortunately for all of us, many of Kim’s friends have been very generous and allowed squatters in their “bach”.

A bach is typically a small holiday cottage, but our first “bach” was a luxury highrise at the beach with views of the ocean and harbor. Thanks Kim!! …
