Welcome to Canada...eh?

After 48 hours at home from my trip to Australia (and not quite over jet lag), it was back to the airport.... destination: Calgary, Canada.

I've come up to Calgary several times due to the Fluor office being one of our major offices, so I feel right at home here.  In addition, I've made several friends at the office who really make me feel welcome and loved.   I always look forward to my trip to this Cow Town when it pops on to my schedule.

Naturally, Banff is the first "must" while in the Calgary area.  It's only about 1 1/2 hour drive and nestled in the beautiful Canadian Rockies.  Yes, I said "beautiful" as a guy.  Jenn, who's coming up this weekend, and I will be going to Banff on Saturday for a night.  We're going to hit up Lake Louise too.  I'm sure you will enjoy the scenic pictures.

Some of the other great things to look forward to while in Calgary: Alberta beef (hands down better than US), Canadian Beer, awesome lunch spots (Earls, Moxie's Milestone, Cattle Baron, etc), the Horon's, Marion and All Dressed Up potato chips. 

Stay tuned for a report on Jenn and I's weekend in Calgary and Banff.

Welcome to Canada....... eh?
