Robot (Kat) Report

I'm counting down the days until CJSW takes off to Wayne, Alberta - an honest to goodness ghost town a couple hours away from Calgary. I'm really really excited about this. I'm going to try not to get into gunfights but I'm pretty sure that's what happens is ghost towns. I'll be equipped with my SuperSoaker 3000 though so no worries.
