I've seen the Pigs of Saskatoon and the Cows of Calgary and both pale in comparison to the Bears of Winnipeg. They are absolutely wonderful. I absolutely love them. The paint jobs are great and there are so many of them - 60 or so and they're all in one area on Broadway. A friend drove me by them last night after picking me up at the airport. I should go for a walk tomorrow after training is done to get a better look. It's supposed to be hot out tomorrow which will be nice.

After waiting a hlaf hour extra for me at the airport due to my late flight, she then took me for supper which was a great time. I am fortunate to have friends across Canada now through work. There are so many that I wouldn't hesitate to call up and go for supper with from Halifax to Vancouver.
