A slightly eventful summer, if only in the last two weeks or so.

At the mo I'm on my vacation from work, basking in the heat of the prairie sun in Edmonton.

On July 11th my father and I took the Coho across to the States and, after a day or so of driving through the Washington desert, arrived at the Gorge Amphitheatre (obviously there were some bits in the middle, but nothing really noteworthy) for a concert. Elvis Costello and The Police, to be exact. It was nothing short of fantastic, to be honest. I have a picture or two up on Facebook, and I'd be glad to direct people to the pictures that my dad took if anyone was interested.

Also on Facebook is a note I posted of the various (hilarious) reactions that we received while driving the Smart Car. For anyone who doesn't know, Smart Cars have only just been introduced to the US, so most people had never seen one of those beasts before.

Anyway. Coming up this summer is my 19th birthday, which should be interesting. I'm not planning on having a huge do, but we'll see what happens.
