In just one week...

About this time in just one week, the group will be arriving in Seattle after a flight from Memphis. Then, the adventure begins!

NEXT Saturday... we go!

I have had a chance to "look up" a few of the places we will visit on our tour of the "Canadian Rockies." The one place that absolutely "jumps out" at me is Lake Louis. If it is even "half" as beautiful as the pictures show, it will be all worth while.

I'm not sure how people would ever want to leave this place...

Hopefully, when I shoot some video while there, I'll be better able to put into words the "awe" that the pictures give me today.

Thursday, T-Minus 8 Days and counting

This "trip of a lifetime" continues to get closer and closer. Our group will be flying out of Memphis Int'l Saturday, August 1st, to Seattle, where we will spend the night before really getting our trip started on Sunday. One of the places I'm hoping to visit while in Seattle is famous for it's "Flying Fish" It's the Pike Place Fish Market.

These guys know how to do a website. Click on the link above (or the picture) to go to their site. Visitors are invited to send in their photos. Many already have.

We are big seafood lovers, I'm confident my wallet will be much lighter after we leave. But, according to all I've read, it'll be well worth the trip!

I have been trained on the laptop, with its video features and am looking forward to documenting this adventure! If done properly, my reports will air on New Channel Daybreak and at 4 and 4:30.

Wow, that didn't take long. Already with a link to our weather page from www.wreg.com.

Today I will be learning more about a video record system with a flash cam. I will be recording my progress with reports here and maybe even on News Channel 3.

This is going to be fun.

Clock is ticking, August 1st will be here before you know it!

When and where

I will likely be posting each evening, after the days events, but I may just post from my PDA while enjoying the sites...

The countdown has begun!

August 1st will be here before you know it. Our trip with "Holiday Vacations" where we will be "Railroading in the Rockies" is less than 2 weeks away.

The adventure begins on August 1st.

My goal, to keep you posted on our daily events, share some photos and let you in on the fun.

Maybe you can join us next time!
