Default Wont be around for a couple of weeks
Hi gang,
Just a heads up in case anyone was looking for me. I am flying out tomorrow to see my new and first grand daughter. I am heading to Calgary Alberta Canada that is where she is. The trip is two fold mainly to see her but I also just purchased a new truck 2006 Toyota 4x4, TRD and I will be driving it back. So I should be back around the 10th May it is about a four day drive mostly through Northern Ontario where there isnt much of anything but forrests and trees. I will be in touch maybe when I am there if I can get on a computer.
Colin

AH joy of a First Granddaughter. Be safe and careful and don't spoil her. That is what My daughter said I did when I held my granddaughter for the first time. I wouldn't let anyone else hold her.

Awww, Gee, Colin,
Congratulations on the new granddaughter. You'll never be the same. The little ones find a spot in your heart that you never knew existed.

And you've got double pleasure--new truck AND a new granddaughter. It don't get much better than that...unless of course, you were driving that new truck down to Missouri!!! You could probably do that in a couple of days, too, you know?

Have a great trip and let us know how great it was. I suppose you'll be carving little girls into your trees instead of crusty ole wood spirits?

Colin,
Congratulations!!!! Granddaughters are special. Grandson's are special too but Granddaughters are more prone to come up and hug your neck. First thing you know they've got you right in the palm of their hand. Try not to spoil her but we all know that's impossible.

Congratulations Colin! A new Granddaughter is a big event, expecially the first. Someone to tie Grampie around her little finger! Enjoy her Colin and congratulations also for the new Mom and Dad.

Don't forget pics son!!!
