Whats NEW~! A LOT

I never thought life could be so full of surprise and adventure. My wife and I are about ready to take on a new car. We have shopped and decided that the 2010 Hyundai Elantra Touring is the right car. It has great economy and is great on the road. It will also fit our entire family and is great on gas. At the same time my kids have been bugging me to buy a snowmobile so we decided to take the plunge and on Thursday we will pay for a 1997 Polaris Indy Trail Touring machine. I know absolutely nothing about snowmobiles but this one is in great shape with only 3000 miles and was well cared for. So Simon and Noah and I begin our new northern adventure on the back of the new snow machine. Hope it is worth it. The next day we pick up our new car so all in all a busy week. Meanwhile still no word from Transcontinental after my interview a week ago but I hold out hope there is still a chance I will be selected for the position as reporter at the Northern Pen. If my references are any indication I got the job but who knows what is happening. I have run into the editor of the paper twice since Saturday and he does not let on if there is any news so I continue to wait and see what the outcome will be. Meanwhile there is other opportunity on the horizon if my first choice does not pan out. Anyway we are going to have fun anyway no matter what. For now I am very happy to have chosen this great locale with great people. Now I find myself hoping for some heavy snow over the next few weeks so the kids can enjoy the new machine.
