Here she is. It's a manufactured home, which means no basement. I'm slowly getting used to no basement. It's pretty solid too. It can get frickin' windy out here. It's also warmer then I thought it would be. The windows must be good quality.
Here's my backyard. It's pretty much bald ass prairie except for on the horizon, there are some hills. Which is the beginning of the foothills area. Also, just behind those red things in the photo is a farmers field. I can remember around Oct.-Nov. hearing this great jesus noise coming from outside. So I walked around back and there's this combine going through the farmers field, 200 metres from my house. Now that was a little shock, coming from a city kid. Not that I haven't seen a combine before. But I've never been so close to one, as to actually here it working. Living out here away from the hustle and bustle of high priced Calgary. I'm liking it more and more as each day passes. Although I don't know if I'll live in Hussar forever. But I'm really liking Drumheller and the area. I could definately see myself living in Drumheller. But who knows anythings possible. There's not much to do in Hussar. They've got 1 lounge/bar. But it's mostly just farmers and the regular town folk. The store closes at 5 pm everyday, except Sunday for when it's not open at all. The only thing that Hussar is missing, is high-speed internet. Which means no xbox live, yet. The best I can do is high-speed satellite. It's not as fast as cable or DSL, but it's way better then dial-up. I would like to get a job closer to home if I could. But I'm making such good money working in Calgary and commutting in. That I'm not quite ready to stop. Although I'm not going to work nights forever. One bonus of living out here is the stars and night sky is beautiful. You can see so many more stars then you could living in the city. In the fall it was a nightly occurance to see the Aurora Borealis. Which was beautiful and cool everytime. One of the other little quirky things about here is that it gets pretty foggy from time to time. It's probably because were close to the badlands. She can get pretty thick.Anyways, stay tuned. You never know what's going to show up.
Peace.

yeah i know, it was a little negative in 2006. That'll change in 2007. Yeah it sucks right now with the conflict. But that's just a temporary thing. No worries on the visiting thing dude. I'm usually in the city on the weekends anyways. I usually see the lights after I've left your place around 1am.
Speaking of visiting,
I still hope you guys are planning to visit Canada's ocean Playground this spring. I will be coming out this summer... Probably in July. My Company has a Work exchange program so I can go to out Calgary/Edmonton/Grand Prarie Office and work from there. I'm Thinking I might do 1 week in Edmonton, One Week In Cowtown and a Weeks Vacation in BC. Hopefully will get out to the Clawmonkey - house for a Little Beer on the Prarie.
You're gonna work in Calgary and Edmonton.
Welcome to the jungle. We got fun and games.
Yes I still plan to go out and visit you guys. But I don't know when I'll be able to make it out. Worst case scenarion, I'll fly out for a long weekend or something.
