The weekend synopsis

For their flag, Israel has the star of David, for the United States she has 50 stars. And Canada has leaves? What's up with that? But that's ok, their Prime Minister is cute and does not mince his words. Anyway, so I got to Banff, Canada but didn't get to do flyfishing after all; the closest I got was pose for pictures by the river.

And holed up in my hotel room watching the naked chef.


And walked around the strip with the snow capped mountain as the backdrop, which was cool because Texas is so flat-- the only elevation you see are the school zone bumps.

And then ate shepherd's pie for lunch, went back to my hotel room and watched more cooking shows of the cheeky kid----Jamie Oliver.
