The view from CBC in Calgary

Snowy, looking out towards my folks’ old place off Memorial. Lots of memories. Snow, too.

    Some of my favorite memories are from when I lived in the Kensington/Sunnyside area. I heard the old Plaza Theatre may be in for some tough times ahead.

    It was a day like that 28 years ago when we moved to Parkdale & found a little hole in the wall called Shan Tung, they had the best food in Calgary for many years. The year before it was 40 Effing below on Halloween. As much as liked living in Calgary I do not miss hauling kids in snow suits trick or treating.

      I also lived in Parkdale (grades 3-8). I had a Calgary Herald paper route for years. I sometimes bring it up in discussions with my four children when it is cold and they complain about going outside. I miss Calgary. I miss Memorial Drive. I miss the extensive bike paths all around the city.

    Memories indeed. I freelanced there, and also lived in Kensington/Sunnyside. I remember the Plaza well. That would be a shame.
