Week #52! It’s difficult for me to grasp that I have already held 51 different professions over the past year.

Since I am always on the road continually thinking about the following week, I haven’t yet had the chance to reflect on the experience. When I take a moment to stop and think about it, I realize, wow, I have done quite a lot of stuff this year.

This week I have returned to my home town, Port Moody, British Columbia, where I will be the Mayor. I have lived in Port Moody my whole life, and so it’s only fitting that my journey ends here.

It’s a busy schedule this week, filled with the swearing-in of Police Constables, a visit with the Port Moody Scouts, a few committee meetings, Shoreline Art Unveiling, Chengdu China Artists’ Exhibition/Reception, and the Port Moody Arts Festival Opening. Every Thursday between 2pm - 5pm, the Mayor has an open door where any citizen is welcome to come and discuss any issues. If you’re in town, feel free to stop by and say hello!

So what’s next week you ask? I have another five days yet to figure that out, as for now it’s time to clean up the town!
