Less than 10 days before we launch!

In less than 10 days the Have Fun Out There cross-Canada tour will begin. We're getting closer and many things are finally coming together.

We would like to thank ThermaRest


and Eureka for joining our show as sponsors. Thanks to them we'll have comfy mats and a dry tent to sleep under. Space is a at a premium in the Jeep, and the ThermaRest (www.thermarest.com) matts are comfy beyond belief (as are their pillows!) and they pack up into unbelievably small little packages.

Eureka Tents Canada has sorted us out with a wicked tent! The Copper Canyon 1610 (http://www.eurekatentscanada.com/products/tents/product.php?lang=en&menu=3&cat=123&type=1&prod=356) is the coolest old-school-meets-futurama-family-tent I've ever seen.

We've finally settled on the HD camera for our trip. A Sony HD unit. Awesome camera and we're exceptionally tickled with the video quality. We're producing a Blue Ray DVD in the fall so quality was very important. Wait till you see some of the footage. All I can say is WOW. I just picked up a bluetooth microphone for the unit as well, full 5.1 surround! Can't wait to see how it works.

CityTV in Winnipeg has confirmed a morning show spot for us. Cool! And several newspapers have called us to cover our story. It's the first time media has called us instead of the other way around, so the word is getting out.

Thanks for following our adventure, and make sure you continue to check for updates. Staring July 11th you'll have a new episode every 2 days.
