A Max-imum day of fun

Some days are so quick you can barely see them. It's like being on a high speed train. You try to focus on one thing and within a second you are dizzy from the movement of time.

I look at the clock and see Friday is already upon us, and close to complete. All that is left is a short skate with some Friday night old-timer hockey players as their judge, jury, and executioner. I do enjoy lacing the skates and ensuring safe hockey between two competitive teams.

Before I know it Saturday morning will be upon us. Saturday that brings good trotting, some golf, and a hockey pool between friends. Us trotters will meet at 9 am if you are interested. Let's meet at Max Bell Arena for a nice trot along the irrigation canal. If you don't wish to run I am sure we can find a walker for you, or referee if you choose to 'stand' in Max Bell!

I have some fantastic photos from last weekend and our Edworthy trot along with the Strides trail run of Tuesday. But alas iPhone and Acer are having a Friday night argument over the male/female connection that is required to communicate. Perhaps the photos will arrive tomorrow.

So with that I wish you a good night and see you Trotting the Trails in the morning.

The travels of a trotter

I have good friends. I think they like me. Every once in a while they reach out and invite us into their fun. A couple of weeks back Carroll allowed us to join her and Chris on a date in Canmore. I wasn't the only crasher. Bob and Jodi, Joy and Sadie also enjoyed a trip around the trails of Canmore. We did find some old coal mines and stopped for a quick photo. good friends, good times, and a good day.

This weekend we will meet at Edworthy Park, Mostly because I haven't met the group there in many months, if not years. To get there, take Shaganappi Trail or Parkdale Boulevard to their intersection. the lot is there with a couple of washrooms for those with a 'special' bladder. See you at 9 am in front of Angel's.

This is the way we roll.

Tuesday I proved that my 'ish' arrival time doesn't work for all. The Tuesday Strides trail group hosted a blood and guts loop. I missed them by a few minutes but like a good bloodhound found them on the rebound. 

Not before I found some beautiful views, present company excepted.

There may be a mosquito or two birthing here in the spring

Beat's the hell out of Big Brother Canada. Actually, anything is better...

And finally, some of you have been privy to the treats I bring from our SAIT culinary marketplace. This week was the fall bake sale. I entered the craziness five minutes after opening and am pretty confident the fire marshal would not be impressed. that said my belly is fully satisfied!

Have a happy Thanksgiving.
