Very positive article , well done Marc. Incidentally the pic may end up in the Rogue's Gallery, hey you go national and its the risk you take
I guess I'll have to subscribe now, sheesh, make that 41 magazine subscriptions: ......

Wow! Edmonton! It was originally in the Ottawa Citizen. I wonder where else it ended up? Anbody else see it in other cities?

That nice photo by the way was taken by Eric Booth so he deserves a big thank you!

As soon as I get some spare time (not for couple weeks at least unfortunately) Im gonna get the big girl out of winter hibernation!

cheers
