Yesterday I went to the dinner theatre at Mayfield. It was fantastic! The show was called “the Golden Age rocks on!” which was a sequel to a show they did last year on 50s music. There were lots of songs and dancing. At one point they had the male actors playing the female parts and […]

Usually, this just involves receiving email and fax orders, writing them up, following them up through the printing process, the occassional call to […]

Now I can have a Cheesymite scroll and remember the good times! And one of the stores if just a 3 minute drive from my house! The only difference is here, they call the store Cob’s Bread instead of Baker’s Delight.

The Edmonton Symphony Orchestra has discounted, rush tickets for students and people under 26 years of age as well as seniors. LeAnna invited Adam and myself to see the Classic Landmarks Masters Series at the Winspear Centre. It was amazing and $15.00 for a ticket is cheap, almost the price of a movie. We pissed […]

Has a display of vintage bikes that looked really cool. Some I swear look like the ones you’d see in War movies in Europe. There were also Vespas, Motocross and regular Motorcycles. Here’s a pic of Adam on a limited edition KTM.
Winter Weather Update

for Vicki and Mis_n. This past week we had blizzard warnings on Wednesday and Thursday. A low pressure system was to bring in Arctic air and dump 10cm of snow overnight on Wednesday. The temperature did drop to the -20Cs and 15cm fell over the course of the warning. My co-worker, who is from Vancouver […]
