Could go to Edmonton in late August, but it would be doubtful that the card would show up in time. If I really really really wanted to get it done, I could take a day off work and go to the Sweet Grass border crossing this upcoming week, but I don't exactly want to make that journey just for this, so I guess it'll be September.
