I need Cars. Lots of Cars.

This evening Naomi and I went to the A&W on Macleod Trail SW because we’d heard that people with cool old cars turn up there on Wednesday nights. And we’d heard right. When we first got there there were ten or so cars, but eventually there must have been over a hundred – maybe a ...

Calgary Stampede
