Well after 2 days of air travel, > 20 hours flying time, one missed flight (not my fault, honest!), I arrived back in Halifax late on March 26. Jocelyn and I had a good but quick visit there, trying to recover from jet lag while indulging in all of our favourite foods we missed (Dad didn't seem too impressed by the sushi!).Our time was short, and we were packed up and headed off early thursday morning. My plans to take our time driving accross and visit with everyone were not realized, and we drove the 44 hours to Winnipeg straight through. Jocelyn left me there to continue on my own the next day, and I found myself checking in to the beautiful scenery above for another fire season. The picture is some friends and I out flying a kite and taking advantage of the southern Alberta winds (note, when Marty and I launched in stronger winds the next day, I came to realize the mistake I had made as I was dragged across the field... Note to self, a 3 meter kite in 50 km/h winds = trouble)
I'll still update this site periodically, and post any good pics I get. Now I'm looking forward to exploring this park and trying to avoid bears and cougars!
Take care!

So are you getting back to your roots or something there hippy??
Give me a call or come out to visit if you get a chance.
You trip looked amazing.

You should try putting a couple pounds of granola in your pockets when you are flying your kite, the extra weight may help a bit.
Let me know if you are going to be around Calgary...

Thanks for sharing all your adventures, Adam. It was nice to see how everything was progressing. Now, you can try to adjust to the cooler temps. Keep well. Wish you a safe, and worry-free fire season! Ms. Deli (That's my new title!)
Guess one can no longer say "Go fly a kite to you!!!" ~ The mountains look amazing ~ are you drumming out the call of the wild???? Soooo glad to have you back ~ Enjoy!!!
Why couldn't the lifeguard save the hippie?
