Hi guys…

I know I have promised a trip report for my recent Coaster Con trip.  It will come… eventually…and will likely be a lot shorter than I normally do.

No, the trip was not bad.  In fact, I had a blast.  Problem is, when I got home…. A lot of things happened that sucked the life out of me.  Things I can’t talk about here.

Anyways, it will happen, but I wanted to plug something today.

Today I went down to the CBC headquarters in downtown Toronto to do an interview with respected journalist Ellin Bessner.  I immediately recognized her from her television work on the CBC as well as CTV.  Anyways, she interviewed me about my rollercoaster / amusement park hobby for a documentary that will air on August 3rd on CBC Radio One during “The World At Six”.

I had an absolute blast doing this… and Ellin was such a professional journalist to do it with.

Anyways, I am letting you know about this now, as I am going away this Saturday for yet another vacation.  I will be going away to my parents place until Monday night, when I will pop back home briefly, before leaving for Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts to do a whirlwind tour of 8 amusement parks.

So, in other words, I will not be home for the broadcast.  However, Ellin told me that there will be a pod cast available, so I will provide a link if one is available.

Until next time……
