Summer
Fun
Sixty
years ago this month, the two runners who had already broken the
4-minute mile barrier raced each other at the Empire Games in
Vancouver. They were this close when John Landy did a shoulder check
and Roger Bannister passed him on his blind side, and won the race.
Fifty
years ago today, the Beatles touched down in Vancouver and played
Empire Stadium. I remember hearing about it on the news.
Yesterday,
I visited Hastings Park for the first time and stroked off two things
from my Bucket List – the PNE and riding the merry-go-round. It was
a great day, good weather, sunshine with a nice breeze, lots of trees
and shade, lots of food, Superdogs. Without having to buy gas, pay
for bridge toll, parking, or admission, and without the stress of
driving in rush-hour traffic. Bonus. Thank you, Care Transit. A
perfect day.
