Goodbye.

Drumroll please....mazel tov, we have our #yegquest winner! It's this entry from Lesley Thompson that won the random prize draw for a copy of Don't Worry, Just Cook, by Bonnie Stern and Anna Rupert, donated by @JewishEdmonton. Thanks to everyone who took part! #yeg #yegdt

(Though I shan't be invisible. I'm going to leave my archive here, if anyone finds it useful or interesting. And you will be able to find @Paulatics tooting away on a platform named for an animal akin to the wooly mammoth. Oh, and on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.)

Big DW energy among motorists who assume the “bridge closed” notices don’t apply to them.

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

Holy yikes. The demolition of the Stony Plain Road bridge over Groat Road is in full swing at 11:40 pm. Hammer and tongs. I can just hear it through my upstairs bathroom window. My condolences to those living much closer. You won’t need fireworks to keep you up till midnight.

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

Bye bye bridge. My new favourite pastime is watching confused motorists ignore all the signs, blow past all the warnings, and then screech to an indignant halt when the realize that yes, the rules of gravity do apply to them. #yeg #yegtraffic

@TamaraVineberg They are fantastic in muffins and pancakes. And they make the best ice cream, because they have no (discernible) seeds and their skins break down.

I love these twilight images of our downtown. Even if You couldn’t make it out to #yegquest yourself, I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing our city from fresh angles. Downtown Edmonton is beautiful - if we look to see it. #yegdt #yegart #yegheritage

Had a fab time grabbing these #nye #yegquest shots, what a spectacular evening in #yegdt!

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

@Jerpismom Thank you so much. It was so much fun for me to plan. I’m glad people enjoyed it vicariously too.

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

Remember, you have until sunset tomorrow, January 1st, to enter #yegquest and take the Henukkah Hunt for Henday! #yeg #yegdt #yegheritage

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

The turkey's been eaten. The menorahs put away. The weather is lovely! So let's #yegquest, Edmonton! Here are the clues again, all in one thread. Remember. Solve the clues, post your photos, tag me and enter to win a prize from @JewishEdmonton. All clues in #yegdt! #yeg #yegarts

[Edmonton Downtown Farmers Market @YegdtMarket]

What a spectacular piece of art! Amazing. Thanks @Paulatics for #yegquest. We had a blast!

[Paula Simons @Paulatics]

A happy, hoppy, ending! Thank you to all the people who shared the story and brought BunBun home. #yeg #yvr

Thank you to everyone involved in getting Bunbun back to T. He was pretty excited to see his little pal!

Do you know this bunny? This well-loved fren got left behind in the frenzy at the Vancouver airport today. My daughter turned Bunny into the #YVR lost & found this evening, after her own flight was cancelled. She’s hoping for a happy ending. (I am too.) #yvrsnow #Vancouver
