Canada: Mission Man Tree!

This week I am in Whistler. This place puts the meaning into the phrase ' winter wonderland!' My trip started out with the airlines losing my luggage...

Yesterday, my friend Chris and I went on the search for the perfect Christmas tree! I was super excited to go 'tree shopping', but we were serious. First, our truck got stuck and we spent a good while digging ourselves out. Once we broke through the snow, we hiked...and hiked....and hiked some more...

...today was really the perfect winter day in the mountains! However, at the end of the day, the truck overheated....tomorrow might be an adventure! ;0)
