July 2012: Off and running


For the first weekend of July, I was in Quebec City for a Canada Cup race.   We had fun in a thunder storm and some hot east coast weather.  On Canada day we went downtown Quebec City to walk around and see the fireworks on the plains of Abraham.  It was a good quick weekend trip.

After getting home is was back to work for a few days before Dayna and I went camping on Hornby Island (small Island off of Vancouver Island).  We spent 3 days mountain biking, visiting wineries and a distillery.  I was a great way to celebrate our First Wedding anniversary and relax.   We returned home on Monday and Dayna was off to Hawaii for a week with Sandy.  This allowed me to work super hard all week to get ready for my trip to Europe.




I spent most of my days at the track with Tory and working on the track, nights were spent on my computer tying up everything for my 3 week trip.   He is looking really good, coming back from his injury.   It wasn’t all work, I had some time to host a man-bq.

When Dayna returned we had 4 days together before I left.  Now I am off in Europe for 3 weeks.  First week in Aigle, Switzerland, an other week in Northern France before we head over to London for Games.  I have to say I’m very excited and oddly nervous. 

Our event is on Aug 8th (time trails), Aug 9th & 10th (race).  It should be on CTV some time in the morning.
