That's Stampede for you!

"Any cowgirl like you I'm going to help," said the young man behind me in the liquor store as he carried out a case of wine for me.  How nice was that!?

B and I have been wearing our cowboy gear every day to wherever we venture.  Boots, hats, the works.  All day I had my hat and boots on and I have discovered I finally feel like a Calgarian during Stampede.  And this week is Stampede.  Funnily, ethnics do not wear western wear, only white folks.  Last year they introduced a Stampede educational seminar series for ethnic people to help them integrate and get into the spirit.  It didn't work. 

But I'm enjoying this celebration big time!
