The Big Move to Calgary has begun! Kathy and I just couldn’t take being in different cities anymore so I’m mashing (no really, see the pictures of the storeroom!) all my possessions into storage and moving in with the family until the 15th of July when the moving truck, the cat and I are abandoning Vancouver.
