I got a call today to start the process of interviewing for the 911 call taker job! This is a job that I've had my eyes on for a long time and would be a really great transition from my last job.

Oh! and I got tickets to ICE CUBE IN SYDNEY BABY!

Horses A-OK in High River

Quote:
It was all a bit of a misunderstanding.

That's how High River Mayor Craig Snodgrass describes a recent incident involving a local woman ticketed for riding her horse in town.
Quote:
Snodgrass says council tries to stay out of individual issues between residents and municipal enforcement.

"At the end of the day after some good chats with our staff and CAO and protective services, my piece is, any Town of High River bylaw is owned by town council of the day and that needs to the first question that comes to us. It's not a lawyer's bylaw, it's town council's bylaw so we're all on the same page there if there's any discrepancies as to how a bylaw's written that it comes to council first," Snodgrass says.

He says the town's rich agricultural heritage is part of what the town has been, is today and will be into the future and part of that is some people like to ride their horses into town and stop at Tim Horton's, Memory Lane or the most natural spot at the Hitchin' Post.

He's still asking riders to make sure their horses are well trained, and they won't have a rodeo on Centre Street if someone honks their horn and drivers need to be respectful around the riders and their horses.

I got a pretty special opportunity today - a behind the scenes tour at the Military Museums. Got to see the weapons vault and some of the other stuff not on current display.

Very cool. Been to those museums many, many times; would be awesome to see the behind-the-scenes.

So, what, you have to be a poster on CP with "White" in your username to get a job as a 911 operator?

My name is on the wall in that Museum, which I guess is pretty cool.

Leave tomorrow morning for a 4 day weekend in Vancouver for the Rugby 7's Tournament.

My boy is coming and as are a large number of buddies I played with.

Going to be a great weekend of family/friends/rugby/beer.

Antoine Dupont is playing for France & Michael Hooper for Australia.

Years ago I worked with a group of rugby players in Vancouver (it was nothing to do with rugby, it was just a job for them). Absolutely terrific people. I was working out of town, they invited me to their club many nights. Tipped quite a few pints together!!
