Elise, Mason and I went to Vancouver and explored a little.  It was a lot of fun.  Elise was suffering with morning sickeness a little and we needed to cater to Mason's schedule, but we had a great time.

The company I currently work for is based in Baltimore.  Actually... It's a little outside Baltimore by Catonsville and Columbia.  When I first started working for them, they were by White Marsh.  The first time I had been to Washington was while I was living in Toronto, but when I brought Elise and Mason with me on a business trip we took a small trip down to D.C.

Elise and I spent the first week of 2003 in the Dominican Republic. It was also her birthday that week.  She was 7 months pregnant with Mason at the time.  Lucky it wasn't Porter or we may have had a foreigner in our family.

Elise and I went to Cancun on our honeymoon.  That place is amazing!  I'd go back in a heartbeat.

My second area in Chile was La Ligua.  While there, I visited La Chimba, Longotoma, Guaquen, Papudo, Pullalle, Placilla, Los Molles, Pichicuy, Cachagua, Zapallar, Valle Hermoso, Cabildo and Petorca.

Most of my time in Chile was spent somewhere in the Viña Del Mar area - Forestal, Miraflores, Valparaiso, Villa Alemana.  I also visited places like Agua Santa, Reñaca and Quilpue.

I started my mission in La Serena, Chile.  I was in La Compania but visited Coquimbo, La Playa, El Molle, Vicuña and the Tololo space observatory.

I'm pretty sure I had been to Fairmont as a little kid but I know that we used to go there for church activities while I was a youth.  Elise's family goes there every year and it has now become a tradition for Elise and I.

It used to be a yearly tradition for our scout group to stay at the Wood's cabin on Schuswap lake.  We did a mountian bike camp in that area too which was alot of fun.

I think I like Canmore better than Banff.. Same amazing landscape, but it's a little bigger, with more to do and way less touristy.
