I prefer to support our local economy here in Calgary not like the rest of you. Everyone is forgetting about the stampede and a little town in the mountains called Banff.

Actually what I'm saying is, I don't have enough money to go anywhere.

Driving with the girlfriend to her dad's place in peterborough and then to my dads place in New Jersey and then back to Calgary in late july/early august. Stopping at MT Rushmore on the way back, google says it only add about an hour to the trip! We are going to camp along the way.

Sister is getting married in Vegas in November

this made me chuckle, I do agree tho, Banff is one of my favorite places to go to.... but ya.... a tropical beach in banff would be a lot cooler

Yeah, recession and a new kid...I can afford to get my wife to drive me to a few of the vinyards within 20 minutes of our house that offer free tastings (after I go to the US and get the gas for cheaper than it would be here). No more cool trips for this guy.

Going to Halifax for a wedding in September. Will have our new baby, who will be 1.5 months old at the time. Should be interesting. A lot of my family flying in from England too, so it will be a good time.

Friends of mine climbed Mt Kilamanjaro last year. It looks like it was an unbelievable trip. Make sure you are in great shape...its quite the hike.

My wife and I are heading down to Montana the last week of June. Going to spend 3 days in Kallispell and Columbia Falls golfing and then off we go to visit the state capital Helena. From Helena we are heading south to Yellowstone National Park. Along the way we'll be stopping off at the Lewis & Clark Caverns.

... looking forward to seeing the caves as the pictures I've seen look pretty impressive.

Good luck. I climbed Kili a few years ago.

Just found out I have to go a conference at Whistler in the Fall. I'm going a week earlier and driving down to run a half marathon in the wine country of Oregon, then back up to Seattle to take in a day of Bumbershoot, then the conference. I went to Maui and California on separate trips already this year.

I hit up Disneyland for week in April then flew over to Scottsdale for a week. Was home for week then went to San Francisco for a course, but it was more like a vacation. Heading to Scottsdale again in August for 10 days and while were there we are going to drive to Vegas for a few nights.

Going to LA for a week, most of which will be spent at E3.

It'll be my first vacation this long since, like, 2008.

Same.

Might take a drive out to Vancouver to visit family, but that's about it.

Next year though, , I'll have some money and will be hitting up Europe again, possibly Scandinavia.
