shor-t's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Courtland Comes To Town I was in a great old house with some friends but I have no idea where or why I was there. It had a loft inside which I thought was really cool. Either way, Courtland showed up. I was pretty happy about this, having realised that I haven't seen him in quite some time. But of course, he was quite drunk and I changed my mind about having my picture taken with him. We had to leave and the only way to go was by snowmobile. There were quite a few of us on the machine. As we turned into a forest, I saw a small child waving for us to stop as she was walking to school. We keep riding through the light snow and fading light and terrain got steeper and steeper. It got to the point where it was very nearly vertical and in fact was over vertical in some places. We were all dangling from the skidoo high upon the cliff with Court trying to maneuver it over the final few rocks to the top. I was able to wedge myself in between the machine and the rock and stop it from flipping backwards and taking everybody with it. We crept over the lip and relaxed at the top. The top happened to be in the very middle of downtown Calgary and wasn't very high at all, which, for all the work we did was very disappointing. We sat there looking around and I knew that if I walked anywhere I would fall to my death because the rock was so slippery. There were big gates on one end and a narrow footbridge on the side that Court and the others had crossed. I took of my shoes and carefully made my way to where they were. A policeman was yelling at some Asian people and we stood there for some time. 7:56 a.m. - 2007-09-17 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
