Golf balls. There, now you can put your mind at ease. I'm making reference to the large golf ball sized hail stones that rained down on the Calgarians this week. Surprisingly, I was in Cow Town during Stampede week. Although I didn't partake in any pancake breakfast, I did enjoy some of the hospitality. But I get ahead of myself.
After finding out that Fernie doesn't run their downhill on Mondays, we decided that Calgary Olympic Park would make a good second option.
I headed up with the brothers to see if we could produce the famous line "hey watch this". While the words were never uttered, Kevin did do a wonderful reverse superman off a decent sized ledge, sans bike. He continued to impress us the whole day! It was a hoot to get out and makes me wonder how Boston will go with the three of us out and about with no chaperons!
We ended up cutting the day short due to weather. As you can see, the weather did take a turn for the worse.
We left just as the hail started to fall and headed East away from the storm. We found a pub,
Tipperary's on 16th, which had underground parking. Perfect we thought! After attempting to park 3 times, each of which almost ending in disaster (Bro's truck doesn't fit so well in 6ft underground parking) we parked the truck as the hail caught up. It was the "golf balls" started to land.
The rest of the day was filled with beverage and steak sandwiches. Can't wait to do it again!
