Funny artwork spotted on the base of a light post in Edmonton.

Sunday morning overlooking the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton.

Fairmont Hotel MacDonald in Edmonton. Interesting to note that in 1985 this beautiful hotel was considered a run-down slum and was slated for demolition. The city of Edmonton saved it from the wrecking ball by declaring it a heritage property and Fairmont Hotels renovated it in 1988.

We stopped at the 24 hour Donut Mill in Red Deer on our drive back to Calgary from Edmonton.

Supper at Calgary’s favourite, and classic, Peter’s Drive-In.

I love the simple and effective take-away packaging from Peter’s Drive-In. Simple style since 1963.

There are “Help Wanted” signs everywhere in Calgary and Edmonton. I mean everywhere. I thought this approach was humorous.

No trip to Edmonton is complete without a trip to West Edmonton Mall. This photo shows the layout chaos of the indoor roller coasters.

Our night in Edmonton wrapped up with a night in an appropriately named hotel. heh.

Edmonton at night.

The Uppercase Gallery inside Calgary’s ArtSpace. In the background you can see Sean Kenney’s Lego bust of William Shatner.

Can you spot Capt. James T. MacDonald?

Explored the Glenbow Museum in downtown Calgary today.

I must admit, Alberta sunsets just seem bigger.

Crave. Home of the Worlds Best Cupcakes.

Again… the worlds best cupcakes. Holy frig, so good.

Back in Calgary, we spent the afternoon at Heritage Park.

Great weather for vintage buildings and vintage rides.
