178 Steps...



For those suffering from cabin fever or wanting to get rid of a few pounds collected during the winter, the steps leading down to the river valley are as good a place as any to start. These set of steps has 178 in total and will wind you if try them after taking a winter off.

Hiding in the shadows...


With spring, Alberta Cities are starting to see a few more motocycles on the roads, however, there are also a few potholes hiding in the shadows. These holes in the road are caused by frost damaging the pavement.
So when driving in Alberta for the first part of spring, keep an on the road for not only cars and pedestrians but also those nasty little potholes.

The Grain Elevator is a one of those prairie symbols which are slowly disappearing from the landscape. Farmers used to bring grain to the elevators to sell and then rail cars would pass by and pick up the grain and take it to the mills.
Almost every town in the prairies had at least one of these elevators.

Edmonton's five favorite sons are soon going to be six. In this upcoming week, Mark Messier number 11 will be lifted up into the rafters and no oiler will ever wear that number again.
These numbers hang at the top of Rexall place.

Edmonton Light Rail Transit...

Faster than a speeding flash blub, the Edmonton Light Rail Transit crosses the North Saskatchewan on the way to the University of Alberta.

In the summer, this walkway is light until 11 pm.

Happy Family Day

Family Day is the third weekend of February. This civil holiday was established about 10 years ago and intended to give everyone a day off during the winter.

This holiday was intended to provide family of Alberta with an opportunity to spend time together. This is one of the fun way in which can close to both family and friends. There are not many thing which will get you to hold on tighter than sliding down a hill together.

I hope that you got some time with your family and enjoyed Family Day.
