And, I do know that you also have been rather on the edges of the blogging world for personal reasons Please know, when I get back more into the groove, you will get my ongoing support and encouragement.<br />I thought it was kinda' funny I got offered that money to take another plane. I couldn't resist making out the passengers had got a collection together to keep me off the plane :)<br />I'm missing my son and of course, Penny the Jack Russell pilot dog and modest internet star. I did have a nice time with my brother and staying a few days with my family. I shall be heading back down to the Vancouver area in about a weeks time and be visiting a bunch of friends, there. Oh yes, Tim Hortons coffee is really nice n'stuff.<br />I appreciate you making a comment and I'm very sorry that I've been out of touch with commenting on other blogs. I will get back to a more regular routine when I get back to England. In the meantime, I shall embrace this amazing experience that I'm having in British Columbia.<br />I'm delighted that life has begun to improve for you, Kelly. You are one hell of a decent guy and I wish you much positivity. I'm doing very well and I know I shall return to England, a better man. <br />Kelly, I'm sending peaceful and positive wishes, your way.<br />Peace, Gary :)klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-83035622189491250352011-05-26T07:52:42.630+00:002011-05-26T07:52:42.630+00:00Hi David Ebright (aka JaxPop),

Like you, I've been out of the blogging loop for awhile now, too. Long story for another time.<br /><br />That part about the passengers taking up a collection for you was funny. <br /><br />I know you'll miss your son, for certain, but I hope you were able to have a good visit with your mom and your brother. Sounds like you might have. So was the coffee really good there at Hortons?<br /><br />Well, dude, I'm going to make this a short comment instead of one of my ultra entertaining rambling ones because I'm desperately trying to catch up on blog commenting rounds. things are getting better for me so I can do this. I hope things are still going well enough for you.<br /><br />I keep you in mind like I do all of my closest friends.

I wish to apologise for my late reply and being somewhat out of the 'blogging loop', while I'm on holiday in Canada.<br />Thank you for reading that archived posting and finding out what 'klahanie' meant. Indeed, that walk was one of the most profound and inspirational times of my life. <br />Hope is a small, peaceful town and surrounded by spectacular mountains. I shall not get rowdy like Rambo did in this small, peaceful town:)<br />I've been to Toronto and Niagara Falls. Had an enjoyable time.<br />Ah yes, Buffalo. Vancouver, which is one of the places I'm staying, shares some sporting history with Buffalo. That would be that the Buffalo Sabres and the Vancouver Canucks joined the NHL in 1970.<br />I'm having a most inspirational time on my trip to British Columbia, thank you.<br />Take very good care of yourself, Greg.<br />Kind wishes, eh, Gary :)klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-43827051964714731712011-05-18T14:34:36.419+00:002011-05-18T14:34:36.419+00:00Gary, have stopped by here a few times and always ...Gary, have stopped by here a few times and always wondered what khelanie meant, after I read your post on tribes and tributes I understand. Sounds like the walk was, although produced blisters on your feet quite inspirational. <br /><br /> It has been a long time since I watched Rambo, but remember the town as looking very peaceful and quite, hope you don;t plan to make trouble like Rambo did?<br /><br /> Canada is truly a great place, i have been to Canada several times at a younger age, Toronto and the Canadian side of Niagara falls.<br /><br /> Coming from Buffalo, I can tell you without a doubt the Canadians keep their side cleaner and spend more on upkeep than us Americans. <br /><br /> Hope you enjoy your trip!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040588288272247628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-85945438494489384532011-05-16T08:57:44.387+00:002011-05-16T08:57:44.387+00:00Hi Chris,
