I really enjoy taking an extra day on long weekends. I did on the May long weekend, and again this weekend. 4 days seems like the right amount of time to take off. I feel like I have gotten a good break, and I am usually ready to go back to work.
It has been a relaxing and eventful weekend. I left work early on Friday, and managed to be on the road by 1:30. It was nice to hang out with James and Al at the Den all night.
Saturday was fairly lazy. We spent the evening with Brad, James' friend and watched The Venture Brothers. I had been introduced to the cartoon last year by A&R, so I was looking forward to watching some more.
Sunday was quite slow at the Den. After work we head out to Biggar for Canada Day with the family. Mom & Dad prepared a wonderful BBQ feast.
Monday, Dad took me, Lorianne, Kevin, and James out to the shooting range. Wow..did we all have a blast. We all had turns shooting the rifle, 22 semi-automatic and 38 revolver. Only Dad and James shot the 44 and 708 because of the kick-back. Dad definitely showed why he got many 1st places in tournaments back in the 80's, and James definitely out-shot the rest of us. I wouldn't be surprised if James went out on the weekends to go shooting with Dad and play D&D with Kevin. I can't wait until the next visit. I definitely want to go shooting again.
I think we are off to see 1408 today, and then it will be back to Edmonton for me.
