Mike In Calgary

Hello all,

I know that I have not placed a blogg in a while and this one will be short.

I have been here 45 days and I feel it is going well. I am getting around the city by bus or train and at times it is a real pain, but I just can not put out over $200.00 on a car so that I can use it once in awhile. I will still be taking the train to work as parking downtown is another $200.00.

I am still running and have found a great trail not far from me call Glenmore Trails, the course runs around the Glenmore water resivour. Most of the time it is like being in the country as there are very few houses and lots of trees. I am planning on a half marathon in Regina on the 24th of April. I will be there for the boys birthday and will be staying the week as they have it off.

Work is going well, I know that I am learning my place and what I am doing but I also feel that I am contribute as I have quite a few people asking me things and I even have the answers. This company is quite new and growing so there are lots of new people in the last year they have hired 30 - 40.

The apartment I have moved into is very nice. The best feature is the hot water, lots of it and the pressure is incredible. I am on a ground level with a walk out patio that looks into a very large private court yard. It has large mature trees and my area has large Lilacs so I have a very private patio. I will need to but some furniture for it, soon I hope.

Mom , Jim and Donna have my new phone # so please give me a call I do not have a landline so I do not get good long distance rates. I also have a two bedroom set up with three beds, so if anyone needs a place to stay in Calgary you are most welcome. On that note magna and her friend Will be here for the Stamped July and the first part of Aug. The boys will staying the first part of Aug, as I have my Holidays them.

Take Care,


Love Mike
