Winnipeg!


That's pretty sad when your goal is Winnipeg. It's even sadder that you are stoked to get there. And it's sadder still that your next goal is Regina, Saskatchewan. Woo hoo. But I did make it.

The Crash Test Dummies are no more, and I arrived at the Pyramid Cabaret, basically a small brick building, to find out that Gordie Johnson, formerly of Big Sugar, was playing. I found him on youtube and listened to a song and decided to go out to dinner and take a walk after, instead.

The Winnipeg official website has this for a link and official motto:

"SpeakUpWinnipeg.com It's time we had a talk"

I'd say, yes, Winnipeg. It's time we had a talk about your motto. Here's a better one:

"Winnipegzzzzzzzzz.com I spent a week there one night."

Thanks, Trudy! It's 354 miles to the temple. I think I'll go there first. Then see if they have any good concerts. Truthfully, I think people in Saskatchewan go to Winnipeg for fun.
