Happy Anniversary to us!

12700km driven, and as of today we have been on the road for one month. Special.
To recap the last couple days, Early Stage Saloon in Stony Plain was enjoyable until we were packing up and some guy turned on the jukebox that must have been built by Boeing judging by the volume. Of course it was right next to and pointing at the stage. Wonderful. I didn't need those eardrums anyway.
Next, we had thr drive to Calgary, where we started seeing the first 6 or 7 (more to come) cars off the road from wind and snowy patches of an an otherwise clear highway. The crowd at Mikey's was fired up, and after some extreme 'death lazer' fiddle ('less fiddle!', she hollers...) courtesy of the soundman, we settled in and had a good show with lots of familiar faces who threatened to 'mooooo' us off stage if we didn't bring it. We brought it. Calgary hospitality at its best.
Next, we followed the cold weather east, and saw another 10 or so cars off the road on the way to Regina, (continued below)
