Computer, beer and steak. Winning combination.

Hangin with heemsy and brian

What better way to get reintroduced with the rockies than a trip to Waterton. The weather was hot, the beers were cold and the other bears were out and about scaring tourists (we only managed to see a small black on the main road from the comfort of our car).
