Another post from Calgary. It's taking a little getting used to -- being in town for an extended period of time. I'll definitely be making up for time at home in the next couple of months.

A week Saturday (the 11th) I leave for the first of series of trips which will keep me on the road through the end of the year. Some of the travel I have planned is personal (my trip to Lake Louise to work the World Cup ski races) but the bulk of time away is work-related.

Indeed, a rather hectic travel schedule for work for the past year and three-quarters, means it now feels strange to be home for more than a few days at a time.
