on the road....

believe it or not, i am actually posting this from the very top of whistler mountain. it is 2183 meters above sea level, and is the second largest ski mountain in north america--dwarfed only by it's next door neighbor, blackcomb mountain. the average snowfall here is around 10 METERS!!! unbelievable!!! if you go HERE, you can see the large chalet that i was posting from. it is supposed to be a "LIVE" webcam, but after many attempts at getting myself captured by it, i discovered that it only refreshes every 15 minutes or so. i even took a singer from quebec city with me, so that we could both be in the picture that i was intending to post here, but alas it didn't happen....(you can see her page by going to pascalepicard.com. she is a brilliant singer in both french AND english, and i have pasted a video of hers below..... you heard it here first - this girl is going to be HUGE. i saw a family of bears doing some pre-hibernation grazing today, but unfortunately i didn't get a chance to get a decent photo of them, because i had trouble with my camera, and the gondola was moving fairly quickly.... i am running around the country a lot lately, and have been taking some pretty cool photos, and i hope to post them in a big pile when i get a chance. keep checking back with me to see what's going on!!!!
