well that was quick! they told us 1 month to 3 months for the travel docs and we got them yesterday via certified mail. picked up the packet today! so we're on for May! now we gotta wait for his work authorization pwk so he can get the car registered at DMV, get his Social Security Number, and start job hunting. hopefully by the time we get back (June 1) he'll either have a job, or will have one soon after. so YAY!!!

Ahhhh the "Mall" is easy to get too Hope. I can give you directions when we have the meet. If you want to have the meet on Tuesday that would be good because then you can head to Edmonton to check out WEM on Wednesday. So does Tuesday work for everyone??

So you guys can stay a bit longer then? A meet on Tuesday works ok for me.

yes according to Streets & Trips 2005, if we leave from Woodstock about 8 am or earlier, and pull into someplace to sleep by 10 pm, and again leave by 8 am, we should arrive in Calgary approx. 9:30 pm.

What days exactly are you looking at? I know there was mention in a previous response on this thread, but I just wanted to make sure that it hasn't changed. I can get 3 days off from work so I can trip down to Cowtown whenever. As well, that leaves me free to bomb around Edmonton to give you the heads up on the Mall and any other attractions. If you want to take me up on it that is

It looks like I will have the time off that I will need. Mind you, nothing is ever certain until it happens when you deal with the military.
In any case, I should probably find out where the heck I am going in Calgary as well.
