I moved to Sioux Sioux Lookout back in 1994 to get a job at the Hudson Mill. I was living in Barrie and there was no work, so I moved. Boy was I in for a shock! Nothing open past 6pm (ok maybe Drayton Cash & Carry, the mayfair Theatre and Johnny's). After 6pm the whole town just closes! I couldn't believe it. Needless to say, I did carve out a life for myself & my wife. I spent some time instructing at the local college and Adult Ed program, I was on the Sioux Hudson Employment Services Board (eventually became Chair), I did the occasional website & managed to put together Sioux Gamerz - a local PC LAN gaming league and forged some really good friendships. I would like to say thanks to Chris (Drk_Crx) Young and Gary (Billy from Iowa) Meddick for being good friends.
But alas, It's time to move on. I'd like to see the rest of the world. I'd like to try my hand at Philosophy & Theology. I've finally come to a point in my life where I can say "screw you" to my fears and inhibitions. I've spent the last 40 years worried about trying something new - something that may not work - fail. I guess you can say I learnt a thing or two from my parents.
Anyhow, Thanks for everything Sioux Lookout. See you in Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island folks!
