2010 in review

about this time every year, i  try to do a wrap up of the big things i did this year.

December=31/ January 1st- went to mark langois's buck and doe, and then closer the the "hour " we went to cobble hills to hang with freinds drink and be merry

January-nothing big

Febuary-Olymipic Week @Cobble. I entered a snow volleyball comptetiton and won a pair of mp3 sunglasses, and a box of mike and ikes. My team of allan brander, matt and me. We won by default.The team we were supposed to play left the hill. Good times.

March-nothing big

April-birthday
21st-went with fundraisig team at JAM to Air Combat Zone. Meeting was nice talked about all the cool plans and then went to the sim room.  i was d-man, derek was cardinal, paul was ??? and dave was maverick. Someone shot me down, but....but...i shot someone else while falling down to the ground.

May-3rd, mom in an accident on the way home  from the doctor, was rushed to local hospital and put inder a medical coma of sorts.

19th Traci flew to the west to get her car and drive home. The plan was for me to meet her in winnipeg and continue to ontario. I landed in winnipeg 21st or something.She didnt even have time to park at the entrance before i hopped into the car and we were on our way. We stopped overnight in kenora, then continued to  dryden where we had planned the night before to go see a friends parents place and they werent home so we took some pictures isntead...

We continued to drive past shale rocks and trees almost like a cartoon uses the same background in animations or cartoons. Untill ta-da the lakes started showing up. We continued all the way through northern ontario and i drove a bit.The night before, we planned out where we were going to stop over and we thought wed go from kenora to wawa, stay over and then try to continue on from there. But it got late and i we saw a travelodge at the side of the road and we were both yawning alot, so we said its about time to stop.and so we did. That night we opened the map and made a plan so that we knew what we were doing the next day. We did quite a good job of planning becuse we drove all the way home in one day from marathon, mind you we stopped a million times to take in the view. What a beautiful place northern ontario is. We also stopped a long time at the most beautiful place on the border of northern and southern ontatio Perry Sound is beautiful town/city and we stopped for a photo opp, supper and some particualrily famous ice cream at the floatplane base...

This is about the time the signs start showing the  400 series freeways on them instead of the normal highway  one. We are coming into an area of ontario ive seen before, as its not like what i had been driving in before i got to that point. Id never been in northern ontaaaaario. And then my cool and i know what im doing ego comes in as i had started to remeber a secret way home we used to drive to skii hills near arthur and had not driven this route in ages. We managed to make it home before sunrise the next day!! The END
