Season greetings to everyone. My wife Cathy and I are in the process of moving from Calgary, Alberta, Canada to Oxnard, California. We hope to get our house sold in Canada in the spring but in the meantime we have been traveling back and forth about 50/50. I retired after 23 years from a technical sales job in December, 2007 so I have had my first year of relaxation. It's working for me! We are trying to get lots of exercise like bicycling, kayaking, walking and golf in our new home in California. I have a vintage Triumph motorcycle and a vintage Jaguar so that fills in the activities. Vintage vehicles are the safest as they don't even start about half the time.
I enjoyed living in Canada the last ten years of my working life but I just can't take the winters any more. We are back for Christmas and the snow is over a foot deep and the temperature has not been above zero. I hope others will continue to blog because it is great to hear from everyone and see how things are going. Best regards, Paul McNabb

Paul -- I'm so glad you posted the photo of you with your jaguar! Maybe more people will post photos. It's good to hear from you.

Albert is one of my favorite places to travel into. Before we opened an office in Edmondton I used to go for two weeks every summer. In 1998 I took Myrna to Yellowstone for our honeymoon. In 1999 I flew her into Calgary on a Thursday, spent Friday in Canmore, Saturday in Banff, Sunday in Jasper and flew her out of Edmondton on Monday. Her last words heading to the plane were "after seeing this Yellowstone Sucks". I do believe that the Canadian Rockies are one of the most beautiful places on Earth. In 2005 we returned for 10 days of fun in the Rockies.
