The Sickness

You know when you have a cold, your coughing, your nose is runny and your just feeling all around crappy.

I had that, times ten.  I'm finally getting over a flu/sinus infection.  It's been very difficult to concentrate on anything and I've had this for at least four weeks.  I noticed that I was finally starting to feel better on Monday night while I was curling.  I hit the broom and got the weight right, FINALLY!

I've also been playing my PS3 alot for the last couple of weeks, Red Dead Redemption is pretty cool, so the hobby hasn't been getting alot of attention for some time now.  I'll have no more excuses in the next couple of days.  I still have those rifle platoons half painted that I need to get done and I'd like to start on my Cryx models too.

I'd also like to start running again.  We've been going thru a huge snow melt this week and it almost feels like it might be spring.  I know better to call it spring while we're still in February, but the sidewalks and streets do look pretty nice for running.

Start Planning

Now that I'm back from Mexico, I noticed that we're already in February.  That's just insane!

Ontario Parks has a five month in advance policy that I like using.  This is a pic from last summer in Algonquin Park with Laura, that was our first multi-night camping trip.  Five days and we're going to do it again, but this time, I'm going to bring Oceane too.

I'd like to go a few times this year, one with both and a couple of more with each girl.  As you can see, I love the outdoors and I hope to share this with each one of my girls.

The only real questions is...

Where?

In Mexico Again

Just to write up a quick update.

I'm in Mexico, again!  San Luis Potosi isn't the worst place in Mexico, but it's no resort.  The weather so far has been pretty nice, low to upper 20's during the day and lower teen's during the evenning.  I whould love to be able to post some pictures, but my camera doesn't work anymore.

As always, work is keeping me pretty busy.  I talked to a couple of people on the shop floor and they tell me that the mountains all around us have some pretty cool caves, and we're about a four hour drive away from a tropical rain forest.  They say that there's some pretty good fishing in the rivers there.  Maybe one of these days I'll have time to check these places out.

My understanding is that we're getting hit pretty hard with snow back home.  While I was talking to Darcy last night, it hasn't started yet, but this morning a few American's working here say that it's pretty bad and checking my work email, the cafe at work is closed due to Alicia not comming in.  So be careful driving.

Later
