02-25-25 Thank you Mother Nature
I enjoyed my casual morning. I tried on the boots I had bought on sale at Winners. They are perfect. Sadly they are also winter lined so warm at the office. I do feel like Mr Peanut or The Penguin in them
Today was actually relaxing as I got focussed and got quite a few things off my plate
I made it to Key City just after six and welcomed all the guests to the winter ale night. It was so nice to have so many people excited that I was walking.
Opening act was Tyrel Hawke whom I love. A masters in nursing, sporting a hero cape by day and a killer singer/songwriter vibe by night, spilling his emotions into his songs. My favourite moment was when he explained that he grew up in a very religious family and they don’t do gay. He wrote a song about his sister’s support.
I also loved his opening song. He is one of the bravest humans I know 
Next was Over the Moon, a married couple Suzanne Levesque, and Craig Bignell.
Their story is beautiful and I think you should go to overthemoon.com and re be ad more about them and I also was thrilled to find out that they are lovely lovely lovely human beings, as well as ridiculously good musicians. Craig is a real storyteller and Suzanne just smiles and responds in a beautiful way to stories she’s probably heard 1 billion times. and seriously they covered Nazareth on their opening song!
And Ian Tyson who they knew personally
And if the Beatles grew up in Longview Alberta
I think my favourite picture of the entire evening though was this one because the weather has been melting enough that everywhere I walk as long as I am watching for twisty bits there is no ice and the snow is melting away, and I am grateful to Mother Nature. And I love my friend Monica, and that I got to sit with her tonight.
