For you guys in the NW, my former KR will be headed to Langley in BC, CYNJ, just across the border from where Sam is based and about 5 miles from where Al Hawkins is based in BC. Eventually, once 2020 is in our rear-view mirrors, the borders will be open for crossing back and forth, so you guys can significantly improve your mini-gatherings.
