I'm just going to post a little something here for now, more details soon! I've been at the mine here at Lac de Gras since Tuesday, and things are going really well. I'm working in the IT Department, and I'm learning TONS. They have an enormous computer network here, and they're using technologies and systems I've only dreamed of (and some I haven't). I have a driving permit on site, so I was out with my boss today driving around a little bit, seeing some of the other office buildings they have - eventually I'll probably be going there sometimes on my own to look at computers etc. It's crazy to drive past trucks so big they can literally drive over your truck without noticing that there was anything there (I've talked to someone who's done it... they had set it all up... and it's completely true, the drivers of the big trucks don't notice a thing)!
Anyway, that's all for now; it's getting late. I don't have much time in the evenings for chatting/emailing/blogging, so I have to try to do a little bit of each every night! Thinking of everyone,
-Liam

Hey Liam!
Glad to hear an update about your new job. Mom mentioned something about a jam session with some other IT guys? Sounds like fun. Any pictures? And what exactly is your job? I'm assuming that you're just doing general upkeep of the network and the mines... Any modem connectivity issues? Give me a call! LOL
Hi Liam,
Questiosn pretty much the same as Megan's... It sounds like a blast.
Dad
