I’m disappointed I can’t tune into @SiriusXMNFL and listen to @JimMiller_NFL and Pat give me their takes on free agency. I’ve listened a couple times but it’s not the same without Jim. Love the channel but the best show doesn’t exist anymore. Too bad, I miss their chemistry.

@Savage16May We just filled up on diesel at the equivalent of $1.35 CAN per litre and are staying at an RV park for about $100.00 CAN per night in Kalispell. Try doing that in Kelowna, Fernie, or any “destination” spot in AB. Prices are fine, it’s the Canadian prices that are unbearable.

We were able to catch the sunset at Horseshoe Bend near Page Arizona. Really quite beautiful views of the Colorado River in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

The desert is in full bloom. Lots of beautiful sights with the buds and the flowers on the cactus (cacti). Did you know the plural of cactus 🌵 isn’t cactuses? It’s cacti. Sounds wrong. Looks beautiful.

@brianlilley Trudeau can post all he wants about giving “free” money. He could give me ArriveCAN level money and he still wouldn’t get my vote. This coalition government is a corrupt joke and it needs to end.

@kpac_15 I tried one decades ago, like in the late 80’s or early 90’s. I don’t remember much except that it was not good. The meat didn’t seem real, it was jello-y and the sauce was too much. However, the memory isn’t that fresh so I think I’ll try another. I doubt it will be a win.

Walking around the Fort Worth Stock Show. They do have some long horns in Texas.

@Flapjack92 @ReddawgHorizon @RawMikeRichards @AroundTheNFL @NFL @ESPNNFL I wanted to go to a game this weekend. Looked at the forecast and decided it was a dome game. Drove from our ranch south of YYC to Texas the last few days. Finally got above 0 once we hit the Texas state line. My KC dream trip will wait another year. Headed to Jerry’s world.

Morning sunrise at the ranch. Winter has certainly arrived.

[Mark Sutherland @chuckwagonmark]

Yesterday morning’s blue sky and frost on the trees. Beautiful but it means that winter is getting close and that’s a season I do not enjoy.

[Mark Sutherland @chuckwagonmark]

Another pretty sunset while out hunting. Some mule doe deer in the photo if you look close but they were not on the menu today.

The Maypole/Flowerdale
School District schoolhouse. Early furrows: a story of our early pioneers in Provost, Hayter, Bodo, Alberta & surrounding districts stated “the school had 25-30 pupils in 1919. It also was the center of social activities-box socials, concerts and the like.”

Here is our run from last night at the Calgary Stampede off of barrel three. Commando, Legend, Tip and Strav  started hard, barrelled great, and ran all the way around. We just about stole the rail, but couldn’t get the job done.
