Hello from Kelowna!
Hey all, just a "tell" for right now as the pics are all on the camera and I don't have my uploading cable or a scanner. I've had a blast out here on vacation so far, having picked up some more Rockets goodies and all that. But the big news: I MET JOSH GORGES YESTERDAY!!! Not only did I meet him, I got my pic taken with him, had him sign a couple cards, we had a few pops at a charity fundraising event yesterday. There were a lot of the old Rockets guys there, like Comeau (who I also got an auto from), Tyler Mosienko, Scott Parker, Kelly Guard, and a bunch of others.
Hilarious moment: there was a raffle for some prizes, one of which was a signed Carey Price photo. Josh won it! Everybody laughed about that one since they're best friends on the Habs and I'm sure that if Josh ever wanted a picture signed by the goalie all he'd have to do is ask. There was also a signed Josh gamer stick, but that was won by somebody else. The hockey gods were not with me on that front. Josh also does a great facial impression of Phil Kessel, who is apparently a really good trash-talker.
That's the trip so far - there's a big golf event on Thursday, and it's rumoured that a certain goalie may be talked into coming down for it. We'll see . . .Habs fan and collector! Main PC's: Carey Price, Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, Juraj Slafkovsky, and of course...

The kind that makes me wonder why on Earth I ever moved in the first place. I'll actually be down in Penticton for the next three days - does Castle Comics have anything hockey anymore?
