Today was a relaxing day. After dropping the truck off to get serviced, I chilled with Jordan. We drank our little stubby beers from Oldman River Brewery and planned our day. We decided to find a place to watch the Raptors game in a bar before he headed off to work. A great time ... a great final game (Congratulations Raptors! ... the NBA Champions)... with great company. Awesome time!

Today I was picking my truck up ... to my surprise the truck did not have 8 spark plugs. .. it had 16!!!!!! It was good to go. A nice compliment from the mechanics was the truck is in excellent condition.
For the evening, visited the Casino to listen to "Breanne Urban and Southern Flyer" and danced the night away. What a fantastic group of people we met. Such a fun evening. 😊

Street Eats Festival
Charlie, Bonnie, Francine and I made our way to this event at 11am. There were a lot of food trucks but not too much else was happening. After about half an hour we headed out.
Stavely Cowboy Gathering
Spent best part of the day at this unique event with Bonnie, Nancy and I. The arena was filled for this event.
In the background you can see John Ol' Ugly, a very popular cowboy poet. Unfortunately we missed his show.
It was a different kind of day with a variety of cowboy poets ...
Shelley Goldberg combines music and poetry, she has been doing this since 2015.
Poppa Mac, Geoff Mackay, is a cowboy poet. He has spent much of his life in the cowboy world from rodeo clown, Chuck cook to wrangler.
... musicians ...
John Zachariah played guitar and a few melodies.
Ed Wahl main vocal and guitarist, Mike Dygert as bass player and John Bacon, fiddle player. They are not a band, but played together at this event and it was fantastic.
... and table displays.
Our sister in law, Bert Myles, has been going to this specific event and setting up a table for 19 years!
Ended the day in Fort MacLeod with a plate of Chinese food.
Another great day!
