Alberta bound!

Posted in Uncategorized at 6:00 am by islandeditions

As the old Gordon Lightfoot song says… It’s good to be Alberta bound! I fly there from Toronto later today, just getting out of Ontario in time to miss the next predicted snowstorm - and, I certainly hope for everyone’s sake, the last of this long, brutal winter. I know from past experience that winter is never declared to be officially over in Calgary until the May 24th long weekend, but I’m optimistic this will be the Year of Early Spring. It only has to remain mild and snow-free for 4 more weeks. Then I’ll be heading to sales conference in Vancouver where Spring will definitely have taken over.

So it’s a new (old) job for me, in a new (old) city to call home. A bit of deja vu perhaps, or reliving of my past life and glories, but not boring. Never boring! And one thing I can be guaranteed is the welcome sight of those Rocky Mountains to the west as the plane begins its descent into the Calgary airport - a sight I never tire of seeing, and one I look forward to enjoying again, and again, and again.
