I’ve been busy, really! Our vacation went very well, however I didn’t have much time to post during the vacation, because we were almost always busy doing something. I will have more stories about that later!

As for after the vacation, it took us a week just to adjust (wind down?) to being NOT on the go every day… I had bills to catch up on, grass to cut, people to visit…

I’ve also taken up a new hobby… GOLF! I was introduced to golf in Quebec by Chantale, her mother, and her uncle. I like it! I picked up a set, and I’ve been to the range a few times practicing. I hope to get out and play another round VERY soon!

I’ve also got a new friend/pet/PainInTheAss. Ok, it’s a puppy… A Labrador/Shepherd cross that we picked up from the Regina Shelter last Wednesday. She’s only about 12 weeks old, and can be quite a handful. I’m up every morning at 3 AM to let her out to do her “business”. Yeah, did I mention I haven’t been getting much sleep? Really, she’s a great puppy. We finally dubbed her “Sasha”, which I later found out means “Protector of Men”. How fitting… She’s too scared to go down the stairs, and somehow she’s going to protect me(n). We’ll see! Here’s a couple pictures:

Anyways, as I find time over the next several days, I’ll write up some stories about our trip. We had a great time, and I’ll try to highlight some of the cool things that happened!
