Naw, it is going to be cool this year. We put down 1 July for here. If we win we get to go to Banff. (Right) I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.

The whole area is gorgeous, if they haven't built condos on everything by now. Skip Lake Louise, though, as it is overdeveloped. Morraine Lake is much nicer. Well, that was true 34 years ago when I visited all three locations. Things may have changed a bit since then, hard as that may be to believe of Canada.;) Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'

It doesn't work very well, but it's more fun than drinking water or floating in it.:beer: Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'

That it reaches 100°F here, of course... It's 98 now.:( Get your bets down, ladies and gents... We really should have a pool, and another for when it will freeze first in Toronto, maybe. Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'
Coincidence?It was about 96F in Trivandrum 2-3 days ago :-(

:eek: That's got to be miserable! I hope that's about as high as it goes - I wouldn't wish higher on anyone. I'm hoping that here we don't get a hotter summer than usual, given the cooler and wetter than normal winter we just had. I *know* that there's no causality that can be proven, but I fear there may be a balance that must be restored - cool winter => hot summer. Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'

Coincidence?Add to that humidity of 70-80% and you can imagine how bad it's like. I guess it's not as humid out there where you are, Rog.

Nishant S wrote: it's not as humid out there True, at least until July and August. They call that Monsoon season, though we usually don't get actual rain, just a heavy overcast and humidity that works with the 130°F heat to suck the life out of you. Curiously, today is supposed to be a rainy day, as is tomorrow, but if it stays under 100 it shouldn't be too bad.:-D Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'

Wow, didn't realize so many people had visited Scotland.. Banff, Scotland. The original.[^] Gary Marc Clifton: "In other words, VB is like a bad parent. It can really screw up your childhood."
Thanks for the education. I did not know it was named in honor of another place. For me I would not mind seeing both! I just need to retire early enough to do so. I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.
