  1. Glad to see that you have access to email, Bob. Hopefully you have survived the epic floods in Canmore without too much damage. If not let us know if there’s anything we can do to help.

    At all times we’ve had the basic necessity(you know, internet). As well, we’ve escaped any flooding and were never without gas, power, water, or phone. Thanks for your concern. -Bob
