BTM, it's great to catch up with old friends! I've got one that lives in Chicago I see once or twice a year. Been friends since we were 5 (37 years now). No matter what's going on in our lives, it's great to have that friendship and support behind us.
I'm not a rodeo person, but the Stampede sounds like it would be fun. I'm sure you'll have a great time with your buddies!
Rodeo isn't my thing either. But, if I am going to see him in Calgary at some point, it may as well be that week. Another 20 year friend who lives in same city as me, but I never see, is going to be out there at the same time. Looks like all 3 of us may be able to connect for one day.
Since I have basically disowned by extended family (long story) and no longer have STBX around, it is nice to have old friends to connect with.
