And being a Calgarian, I can't help but say: On your way through to
Edmonton and the Alaska Highway, take a week off to come on a trail ride
with us and see the Calgary Stampede - the Greatest Outdoor Rodeo in the
world (or so it's said).
John must be working on his PHD at the U of A! :-) Remember, he said
"high" temperatures - not average! Now Calgary on the other hand has
higher averages and lower humidity! Some of you might remember Calgary,
the Kananaskis and Banff from the GOF in '94.
Best to all this holiday season.
