I've been hiding

Sorry to have been absent lately, but I've been been busy.

First I've been working on learning to Scuba dive. It was something on my bucket list. Now it is somewhere else I have to spend money.

In the meantime the forces of nature decided to dump lots of water on the eastern slopes of the Rockies, which in turn caused massive flooding in Calgary. Something not seen here ever before. Luckily , I don't live in a low lying area, so I wasn't affected too much.

So now that things have settled down and are returning to normal, I have left town for a vacation, and checking out some of the fabulous wines offered in the Okanagan Valley.

Welcome back, I know all too well about wet. Seams that we have almost surpassed the average yearly rainfall in 7 months.

Oh yes nothing but rain here for weeks. Starting to think I should invest in some scuba gear myself.

Enjoy the vacation Phil.
