Lissa and I ride The Wildcat at the CNE (click on image to see a larger version)

Allison, Sheilagh (Allison's sister), Phil, Lissa and I visited the CNE yesterday. It was Toonie Tuesday: only $2 for the entry fee! Surprisingly (and sadly, for the CNE), it wasn't that crowded. It's been years since I have attended the Canadian National Exhibition, and even longer since I've been on a roller coaster. Have to say that I'm glad I let Phil and Lissa convince me to try one again...I had a great amount of fun (though my throat was raw for a while after from all the screaming :-)).

Here is Allison's Livejournal entry about our CNE visit. Here's Lissa's.

I just received my Torcon progress report. Isn't it a bit late to be mailing out something like this? Members who have left for Torcon early won't be seeing it (Allison still hadn't received her copy as of yesterday, Paul & Lissa & Phil hadn't seen it yet). The back cover advertises a convention that already has already taken place.

Only a few days until we see our new CD! Bill & Gretchen Roper are bringing them to the convention.

Going for a hike today, then to Jodi's place in Newmarket for a pre-Torcon party tonight.

Speaking of new CDs, Andrea Dale's new CD, Zen Cappuccino, will also be released at Torcon. See her Livejournal entry announcement.

Torcon starts tomorrow!

On the way out of the CNE, Allison and Sheilagh decided to try their hand at a pinball game. Allison's holding a prize she won.
