Well Flat Admin made it across the border safely stowed away so that the border agents would not arrest him as a possible relative of switzr1. Yesterday, I took him into the town of Trenton, the Gateway to the Trent Severn Waterway. (Sorry that Flat Admin is a bit "fuzzy" in the pics.)
Today we went in the other direction and to the city of Belleville taking in the sites including Zwick's Park.
I had planned to keep him another day and have him to some hay with me but like all my other friends, he protested saying that he did that as a teenager growing up on a farm and was not in favour of riding the wagon again. Sounds familiar, eh Chuck? I swear everyone must have grown up on a farm the way they all claim to have done hay in their youth.
Flat Admin is now on his way to Lloydminster, SK. Speaking of Lloydminster, anyone notice ranfordfan being absent from the site for the last 4 days?

I will entertain trades but please don't offer me a 1993 Dave Stieb for a Nolan Ryan rookie. I prefer player for player (at least similar era and similar stardom).

Poor Darryl. He went to go check on his recent haul and a stack of 5K boxes fell on him. I suspect his family is still trying to dig him out slowly and carefully so as to not damage any of the cards. He survives on a steady diet of 90 Fleer..

So that means Flat Admin is going to visit Flat Ranfordfan! Perfect!

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Now that we've had our first participant (not counting myself) complete their part of Flat Admin's journey, I'd like to announce a "Flat Admin Commemorative".
Successful participants can request a commemorative copy of the original Flat Admin. The commemorative copy will be signed by Admin; an on-card autograph. Here's a mock-up of the commemorative Flat Admin:

I'm hoping that Flat Admin makes a trip to Des Moines, Iowa to see an Iowa Cubs game.

If you'd like to keep the "Canadian connection" intact give me a shout and I can get you to send it eastward after you're finished. It would be nice to keep it above the "49th" for a little while.

Sunny and +32 Celcius (call it 89.6 Fahrenheit) . Same for tomorrow with humidex readings approaching +40 Celcius (i.e. 104 on the old F scale...) after this weekend , all bets are off....
