Yeah we never have this much rain. It's usually all on fire by now π€£ I'm still wearing hoodies. It's been nice.
I ran into a bunch of Albertans(?) at a gold & silver shop today, talking about how badly they want out. Funny how far that's resonating. Just wanted to mention that, because, how fun! A true Canadian uprising ππ
It's usually brown and crunchy here by now. Very green still π Farmers will be pissed for harvest if it doesn't slow down.
Yeah, It's where the trucker thing started too. AB is a bit different.
I am without a lawnmower this year & my yard is starting to look like a mini jungle π

My indignant ass went & bought a push mower when mine broke, thinking it would be a "normal" summer. I mowed once before the growth outpaced my ability to push and its capacity to cut... which is way harder than I had anticipated actually π
Albertans have far more in common with people in Montana, Wyoming and North Dakota than anywhere east of Regina.
So it seems. I'd read & heard things about it, including your takes. It hits different it's some random people standing right there.
Shared history and culture. Obviously some variance but this land has shaped us.
π« I agree. The land, the weather. We're built different & everybody likes to say that, until they experience a true winter π
π but the skies, grass, the rivers and the mountains.
Worth it π«π

I'm glad you're glad to be home. I worry about all the good ones leaving.
Leaving?
Yeah... it's probably undue worry, but I see people here being wooed away by other opportunities. My community is aging out. Most of the people who have moved in have either moved out or they live here because they don't want to talk to anybody. It's probably a local issue but I still worry lol
An, I thought maybe you meant leaving nostrβ¦β¦.
Yeah, thatβs why we keep having kids. Gives us someone to talk to π
π«π oooh... I worry about that too, also more than I probably should. π«
π how is everyone adjusting, by the way?
