Saturday December 2, 2006 7:50 am Lethbridge Sunrise 8:08 Sunset 16:34 Hours of daylight: 8:26

A. Morning Musings

7:50 am It is -13 C at the moment with a high of -7 C forecast.

Today is promising to be eventful. Politically, Alberta will elect a new premier and federally, the Liberal party will elect a new leader. In sports, game 2 of the Ashes is poised at a critical point: Australia needs a strong inning to avoid losing and having the series tied. Cross-country skiing: I am finally going to try the trails at Allison Creek in the Crowsnest Pass. This will definitely count as "Walk & exercise".
