    Mountain Wedding Locations

    How about down in Waterton Park? It doesn't get more stunning than at the lake, great photo ops and accomodation in and outside the park-hotels, camping. Guests could even stay in Pincher Creek. Have fun!

    nope, that's not it. I got to thinking: dull chainsaws, men who can't hold their liquor.

    Pet Peeves!!

    Just a few: dial-up; people who abuse and neglect kids; people who abuse and neglect animals; people who drive at 140km/h and think they can multi-task; people who don't slow down when passing deer on the highway; folks who think that every inch of wilderness is theirs to develop,use or access...

    Moving from Alberta to BC??????

    I'm with you on this one cat. You asked specifically about the cost of living and let me tell you, you can't eat beauty! Our insurance rates went up 4x what we were paying in Ab. Nevermind the cost of fuel, groceries, clothing, what have you. Don't forget you're paying 7%PST on everything...

    We had a cow moose charge our chocolate lab, she was barking at the moose. We were on a walk. When the moose charged, the dog ran down the hill right past us and kept going. That left me and my wife standing there looking into the eyes of a very pizzed off moose. She stopped about 20 yards...

    Antler Hunting????

    That's good the dogs came home with it-I keep thinking there's got to be a way that I can train our two labs to sniff them out-sounds like yours are naturals:) Keep an eye out for rubs, but don't be surprised if you find antlers is some pretty bizarre places-deep into tree branches, on rocks...

    What's Happening With Our Education System !!

    Also...found these stats on MSN the other day and thought they were very interesting...for the U.S. mind you...had to share as I was surprised at how high the numbers were in 2007- 46.6% of the labour force had less than a high school diploma and 69.9% had no college degree

    What's Happening With Our Education System !!

    Gotta throw my two cents into this discussion. Totally agree with Luke's comments regarding the effort that kids put into school, but also want to add that it is my opinion that us as parents share the blame for what is happening in the education system. School is not a babysitting service-we...

    Need Help with common law seperation

    Regarding Bogger's reply-seperation/divorce is war..............that's the attitude that makes some of these splits last forever. Yes, you do need to look after yourself, but people hang onto things/attitudes for ego's sake. This is obviously pretty fresh and tomorrow is a new day (and a...

    Need Help with common law seperation

    Sorry to hear how this came about........only advice is to take things a day at a time and to think through EVERYTHING. Irrational reactions/behaviours/thoughts can set you back. Talk to a lawyer-free consultations-figure out where you stand and what your next move should be. Is she wanting...

    What does everyone do for a career?

    While Dean's melting his butt off in +50 (thanks hon!) I'm back in -30 freezing mine off, and taking care of anything and everything (kids, animals, farm)and operating a guesthouse in town! Did I mention that these are all volunteer positions?-all of it! I'm always on the look out for more...

    Interesting Poop and Dead things

    You're right, you smell and you're a fungi-no comment on the rest-that would just be cruel. But he's right the kids and he have to put up with all sorts of stuff I find, including many dead birds in the deep freeze (wait!don't open that bag/box!) and the fact that I'm a little twisted and work...
