Hope everyone has had a great couple of weeks!!

Jennifer spent 3 days in Banff at the start of March.  She had a great time at the conference, did some good team building and went out drinking at Wild Bill's Saloon.  Jennifer managed to eat way more than she should have as they kept feeding her very good food.  Dad and Ryley survived very well.  Ryley didn't miss Mom too much and they had a great time playing together.

Ron is now working from home permanently.  He really enjoys not having to spend close to 2 hours a day on the train and not having to deal with downtown Calgary.  His business phone line was installed yesterday and he finally found a 2 line phone with all the features he was looking for.  Working from home is not much different to going into the office as most of his work is done remotely now.

Ryley went skating for the first time at the Olympic Oval and seemed to have a very good time.  He used a metal support and used Mom and Dad for support too.  The bob skates worked well, the legs on Ryley not so well.  Next year will be better.

We have all had colds for the last 2 weeks or so.  We seem to just keep passing it back and forth between each other.  Ryley is not healthy, Ron is well on his way and Jennifer seems to have it coming back again.

Jennifer almost got to San Francisco with work for 10 days in May, but there was not enough interest to make it a worthwhile team building exercise.  Dad was a little concerned about having to look after Ryley for a full 10 days.

Curling is almost over for another year.  Jennifer's team finished in the middle of the pack and Ron was a couple of places lower.  All in all a good year.
