Mah dude, I’m a 41-year old bureaucrat on a Saturday afternoon cider walk. Do you think I’m impressed by a loud muffler?👀

@bkives @kristinannable @KellyGerMalone @Gramiq @aeyms_b @Jester0527 @__m_pereira You've been there & lived to tell the tale. I think this makes you a Parks Canada bear guide by proxy. Keep your August 2025 open, please.

[Allison Collins @SnarkyFridays]

@drdagly Looks like a little piece of peace. Well done.

[Allison Collins @SnarkyFridays]
