On the Road Again

Well I have returned from yet another fantastic youth gathering. This one was a little different as it was in Whitehorse in the Yukon territory. We flew from Thunder Bay to Edmonton and then joined a few other people to make up 13 buses and 2 mini vans (about 600 people) on a road trip up to Whitehorse. We stayed in Fort St. John and Watson Lake along the way, doing the same thing on the way back. I got home this afternoon and am completely exhausted. I will post more about the youth gathering later.
I wanted to fill you in on my itinerary for the next week or so as it will be very wild and may be bringing me close to you! Here is my plan:
