Hello, living in Gibsons. It was a nice little quiet town until all of Vancouver decided they wanted to come over and make it theirs. We're presently in the process of sending them all back, so soon we will be back to our hayseed ways. I am still working as a paramedic for BCAS (19 years) and work here as station Chief. My wife Corinne and I run a little hobby fram, where we produce eggs, sheep, and roasting chickens as well we run some horses for lessons and such. We have 4 kids 5 to 12 years old who sometimes help out around the barn.
For fun we raise chickens, sheep, horses and kids.
Of course we live cheque to cheque but do manage to leave the area for the occasional getaway in the Okanagen or Mexico. The later only if we convince someone to take care of the critters and kids. Actually to tell the truth Corinne usually takes the brood to the Okanagen and I stay home to work on the house. An ongoing project with no real end in sight. Mexico only happens when we feel lke we deserve a vacation from life at any cost. Holidays usually happen up the road at a local lake. Nice lake though.
So it's all still real busy and even though I am pushing 50 retirement seems a long long ways away. Looking forward to seeing you all, I'll be the portly bald guy you don't recongnize

OK, so let me get this straight...Jeff Olsen is actually on the blog. Not bad for a guy who swore he would never get email and the like! I bet you even have a cell phone now!!
Hey man, I miss you and am looking forward to yakking in WV next month.
Jeff, great to hear what you're up to, and that you're still with EHS.
I'm afraid you won't be the only portly bald guy there....I think we'll look like twins.
My kids love to point out how big my forehead is....Is that part of your face Dad??
See you next month.
Cheers, Chris A
Hey Jeff,
I admire your life....I spent every summer in Selma Park until I was about 17. I don't even know if they call it that anymore - just past Davis Bay and before Sechelt proper. I have not heard anything about your brother, Steve. I remember walking home from the bus and yakking with him at the end of our driveway most days in Grade 8. Ah, good times! Looking forward to seeing you!

Hi Jeff.
I guess by the time the 5oth reunion rolls around you will really be without. I'll guess we will have to wait until then to have that cheer or if you happen to make your way through Kelowna
some time just send me an email.
