Crazy Canadian Weather

Man, Canadian weather is crazy! After spending a few days in Calgary after coming back from OZ, everyone seemed somewhat embittered about the winter and how spring was yet to arrive. Well, doesn't look like things have changed much since...

Right now I'm in BC taking a paragliding course and I can't get home! The mountains have heavy snowfall warnings in some regions and the prospect of being stuck at Roger's Pass or something doesn't appeal to me much, so I'm staying put. It's kind of funny actually - who would have thought the Rockies and Calgary would have snowfall warnings in May? Ridiculous!

I've clocked something nominal like an hour and a half airtime out here in the last week but doing sleddies is okay when you're at a new site, or one you haven't been to for a while. It'd be awesome to do a little xc or something, but as long as I can do a spiral or wingovers or whatever on the way down from these mini-flights, I keep psyched about sleddies. And besides, flowers are blooming and there's no snow down low!

Anyhow, I've completely adjusted to driving on the right side of the road again and am happy that when I order a burger, there's no damn beetroot in it! I miss flying Mystic, but I totally look forward to kicking ass on home turf in the summer! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssss!
