Fall has hit the Prairies like a giant Super Big Gulp crashing
down on a wasp.
Those that live here knows what means.
People are cheerier, looking forward to the new beginnings
that autumn always brings.
Me, I'm gettin' outta here. Back to my home, Toronto,
still warm and humid according to hometown reports.
Fall here is also marked by the abundance of foreign students
and young people in the city.
Today, I saw gaggles of Asian visa students wandering around
downtown Regina, confused that there was nothing going on.
Weekends in the downtown core is like a civic holiday.
No one's around.
I consider myself quite lucky, I've just been here for four months,
they have to stay here for the entire academic year.
Gearing up for a big Art blowout next week. Full report of the
art scene in Regina. It's not just paintings of grain elevators anymore!
Or....maybe it still is.
The most famous Saskatchewanians:
Gordie Howe
Joni Mitchell
Pamela Wallin
Diefenbaker (?)
Tommy Douglas
The Waltons (Regina?)
Wide Mouth Mason
Colin Thatcher
DICK ASSMAN -from Regina-(15 sec of fame is over--early 90s Dave Letterman)
Here are some typical and Real names of Reginans
I've come across inone way or another:
Wayne and Terri Licking
The Krogstad Family
Doobasoff
Kristal Kups
More to come.......
