reservations made and under my name for 6 PM
see you all there
now for a TINY bit of trivia
Nicks was the very first job I ever had
I worked there and was there on their opening day 
I am looking forward to meet everyone. See you then.
If you guys do that regularly, it may be a chance for me to fly over. Frankfurt - Calgary is a direct flight.
A Canadian Xojo conference may also be a good idea.
I donāt know if thereās been get togethers previously in Calgary - I guess weāll see how this one goes to figure out if itāll become a regular thing or not! Very kind of you to consider joining us!
That would be pretty cool.
For US attendees at least, Iād imagine there would be some cost savings with the USD > CDN exchange.
This is the first get together

A conference in Canada would be30% cheaper for US attendees right from the outset
I would love to attend as well, but the drive from Edmonton to Calgary is too unpredictable in the winter.
Have a great time!
And weather reports suggest things could get nasty by this weekend
Unfortunatelyā¦yes it is. 
well I dont know edmonton but surelyt there has to be more than you guys using it there
we could organize a get together there
or maybe a half way āneutralā city like Red Deer
we can argue about Junior teams instead of Oilers VS Flames
And that would save me most of the drive both ways

Hitmen vs Rebels vs Oil Kings
Have to admit I have not even looked at the standings this year
My daughter and I in Banff. ItĀs cold See you all Sat evening.
sorry for the cold - probably the coldest weather we have had so far this winter and it just started
and Iām patrolling tomorrow night AND saturday morning
Iām expecting to see folks with frostbite
that looks like its taken from one of the balconies at the Upper Hot Springs facing out across tunnel mountain and over the banff springs
nice view that one

We are having a blast still. My their kids playing hockey on the small rink at the hotel (Banff Springs Hotel).
Springs is nice
Are there any snow sculptures in the town site yet ?
Usually the first ones end up in the yard next to the high school down Banff Ave

No sculptures just yet. Downtown Banff is a blast! We are heading to the Canmore Eagles game tomorrow night against Fort McMurray.
too bad as the snow sculptures are something to behold
but timing
last year they had several like this one
the squirrel was about 10-12 feet tall
downtown banff they have tried to keep traditional with varying degrees of success
its still nice esp outside high tourist season
and watching them make them is as engaging as they are to look at
if only you could have been about 10 days later but ā¦ it is what it is
enjoy the hockey game ! it should be like old times with you since olds is in the ajhl as well
