All is going well here. We have just returned from two weeks in British Columbia. Our kids joined us, as well as friends and we had a blast. Now back at school with exams starting in a week then end of the semester. School goes well. I am well into the swing of snow shoe, cross country skiing and skate lessons. Next period I am teaching how to build a snow shelter in outdoor education.
Red Deer is a good place for an exchange. While it is an oil town it it’s big enough to have a cross section of people into hiking and skiing.
I am still riding to school. The coldest day so far was -21. It is dark with sunrise at 8.41 today. Strangely I have not seen anyone else riding to work.
Lots of adventure planned. A week skiing in Fernie and some back country skiing trips, exchange conference ice fishing etc. And I will be ready for some warmth are some stage with plenty of summer holidays planned.
So all is going well. Better go build some snow shelters.
