Hey, does anyone in Edmonton know what happened last night around 3am??

Around #WhyteAve / #OldStrathcona?

It went on for a half hour.

Have an almost minute of the noise, which is roaring and ringing just like this, still.

Has a gas pipe blown??
Has the cop-chopper turned its megaphone on the rotor?
That's no plow.
It's moving and variable and sounds like a jet.
🤷‍♀️

Can't see anything. Not that cloudy though.
It's LOUD.

Head's up Queen Alexandra, #WhyteAve, #OldStrathcona!

There's a couple people out assessing sheds for ease of breaking in tonight.

They have long hoodies and at least one bike with them.

A long black hoodie and a long zebra print hoodie with a small backpack on the back.

Anyway.

As promised, I shall be reporting (with pictures) on the #SweetTreatsYEG Sweet Treats and Lattes festival this week. (A strong argument to get me out of the apartment and going for walks.

The front has an illustration of a bearded white guy with glasses, in a green parka, fur hat, and fur-lined boots, carrying a brown dog with a red sweater under his arm as he also carries a paper coffee cup and a baked good in a white napkin.

The back has a QR code with "scan to see participating businesses & ways to win" above it.

Personally, I've protested at the 'Whyte House' for many years. It's far more convenient than going to Washington.

The annual Zombie Walk had fewer participants due to a technical snafu getting the word out. Still, it was fun to take photos of the undead who showed up. My personal highlight? Zombie Dale the Street Preacher vs. Zombie Nun. #yeg #zombie #zombiewalk #whyteave #oldstrathcona #yegphotographer

IT’S TIME TO FRINGE!

What a fun night with pals from the Alberta NDP and the Edmonton City Council as we celebrated the launch of the 2025 “A Fringe full of Stars”Theatre Festival.

I’m very excited to catch some shows and spend some time in the heart of Edmonton Strathcona! 🧡
