Canada Hates Me...
I didn't get strip-searched* this time, thank goodness, but... they lost my baggage. I carried all my important stuff on with me -- cameras, personal supplies, enough warm clothes to get me to the middle of Saskatoon... but I've got no change of clothes. Brr. This is after we sat at the gate for half an hour because they couldn't find anyone to run the jetway.
But I'm here, and I'm well, and I'm looking forward to getting my backpack back.
Also, it's -3F. That's -19C. There's snow everywhere! It's awesome.

* (Updated Feb 11, 8:30 AM) It occurs to me after the fact (though it didn't occur to me at close to 2AM) that one shouldn't be glib about a topic like that when one provides no context for it. No, I've never actually been strip-searched. That's a bit of an exaggeration. I have been hassled by the border folks a bit, and had my luggage searched. That didn't happen this time. A bit of a bummer, really, because I didn't have much luggage.

(Update Feb 11, 9:30 AM) From NWA's web site, in reference to my lost luggage:
Bag 1 Status: TRACING CONTINUES. PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER
Why yes, I do believe I will check back later. I want my backpack!

Poor baby!!!!!
Glad to hear you made it alright with only a minimum of problems, but I do hope they find your luggage! I'll bet you're glad to have been smart enough to take the important things in your carry-on!
