A Week In Calgary

Sep

2005

I’ve been in Calgary for a week now, but I haven’t done much because I got a cold almost as soon as I got here and I’ve been trying to get rid of it ever since. The first picture in this entry is a picture of the road I live on. I live five minutes ...

After a year of players and owners being idiots, they’ve finally got themselves sorted, and in October this year the NHL is back! Which is good news, but what is even better is that this October I’ll be in Calgary, so I’ll actually be able to go and watch the Flames playing! And what is ...
