Shout Out

So, I would first like to give a "shout out" to my good friend HeMo. She is my inspiration for this here blog. One day, we were talking on MSN and HeMo said to me, "Hey, you should start a blog." And I tought, oh yeah, great idea, because who doesn't want to know where this hobo (and by hobo, I mean my wonderful self) is? So, due to the mastermind of said HeMo, all you people can keep track or your travelling hobo. Hence, my blog! Ta Da!
I am currently in Edmonton, AB, waiting until Monday when I will go to Camrose, AB, to start my uber, hardcore, intensive training for this summer. I will be working with children, teaching VBS with a team of 2 other people in BC. This seems like it should be fun, but DON'T be fooled by appearences...(I mean, yes, it should be quite fun). I am getting pretty excited about it actually, I have a pretty stellar team (Jen Tuokko, and Reide Norman, for those of you who know them).
So, here I stand, looking out at the wild blue yonder... wait, no, that is the computer screen, ready to embark upon year 3 of my travelling hobo summers (#2 with CLBI).
I shall do my best to keep you all informed of my life, the oh so wonderful and exciting events that keep me quite occupied, and sometimes wishing I were dead... I mean alive and well...
Anyhoo, here ends the 1st ever post on this new and amazing blog of the travelling hobo.

P.S. I am supposed to also give a "shout out" to Chris Vandermeer, the most Dutch, insanely fanatic Oiler's fan ever! OK, maybe not so much, but he is very Dutch, and he does love the Oiler's, and tonight the Oiler's are playing game 6 of 7 in the Stanley Cup Finals, and they WILL win... right Chris? So, if... err.. when they do, they need also to win game 7 of 7, and they will have won the Cup for the first time since, I dunno, 1990 or something, so it is pretty big news around here. Also, I have heard that the Dutch "Football" (soccer) team is doing quite well in the World Cup. Check it out if you're bored... err.. ummm.. I mean, you all best check it out, crazy good soccer playing action. Ole!

I was just waiting for the day you started a blog (take that in the best possible way:) I am very exciting that I can hear from you often, I just got my job and I start on the 26th so that is pretty exciting, I am very stoked for when you come out to my beautiful province! I am exciting for you to come and meet my family -WHICH YOU WILL DO!! and they will love you just as much as I do - okay maybe not that much. Anyways, keep those cheeks smiling, God bless you my sister, with love, Neil.

Hey Patti,
Just wanted to let you know I'm excited to read your blog. I love blogging. I might even be addicted. Maybe I'll see you this summer, given that I live in BC :D

Love Kortney
