Heavy smoke from a fire between Edmonton and Sherwood Park today. Appliances at a recycling centre are burning, according to the County of Strathcona - fire is under control. Heavy smoke was drifting NE towards Fort Saskatchewan. #yeg #fire #strathconacounty

Fun day at the ball park! The Edmonton Riverhawks survived a near-disastrous 9th inning and defeated Victoria 8-7 to advance to the championship series. Be there Tuesday - RE/MAX Field, and kids tickets are only $2!! #yeg #edmriverhawks #edmonton

Huge shout out to the Canadian Snowbirds for treating downtown Edmonton to 20 minutes of ‘just-because’ formation flying this afternoon. Lawn chairs lined the valley for this aerial treat. #yeg #snowbirds #edmonton #aviation

Such a boring game for about 65 minutes and about 15 minutes of chaotic brilliance. Crazy overtime. Back to back shutouts for Skinner, and ‘Never in doubt.’ #LetsGoOilers

Such a beautiful spring evening in Edmonton last night. This is Hermitage Park in east Edmonton.

The opposite of a goaltending duel is duelling goals, I guess. Five scorers on five Oilers goals through two periods but we have given up 3. #OffenceFirst #LetsGoOilers

My first butterfly of spring here in central Alberta - a bright spot in the day worth sharing. This is a Green Comma, which I didn’t know until today (also known as a Faunus Anglewing).

Loved last nights concert in Edmonton with Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats. What a show - that guy’s energy and his music were just what I needed.

What a jaw-dropping story with an Edmonton connection - amazing work by CBC. I hope this spurs action by government, police and businesses (looking at you, H&R Block…).

Who’s hacking CRA accounts?
Victims of identity theft across the country told CBC's The Fifth Estate that the Canada Revenue Agency wrongly blamed them for claiming bogus refunds. Our journalists set out to uncover the real scam...

I heard that this temporary re-branding in honour of our hockey hero will be gone soon, so I had to see this in person. Crazy that this iconic chain would agree to this rebranding, but very cool. (It’s one of the busiest locations in Canada, too - on Calgary Trail!) #edmonton #yeg #nhl #LetsGoOilers

It’s already been a very busy spring market—and it’s not even spring yet. 😎It’s a great time to be a seller in Edmonton, but there is a lot to consider. Buying? Could be a bit more intense! Either way - I know the value of having a great realtor there with advice and support every step of the way.

This is a shock - we are losing a pretty significant retailer (especially important for farmers and acreage owners). It was also a great place to buy sunflower seeds for the bird feeders. #yeg #canadianbusiness

Good first period for the #LetsGoOilers. Buffalo had only one shot on goal through the first 12 minutes or so. Cheating for offence to give up a goal on the 5th shot of the game for Buffalo. What would have been the Oilers second goal stopped by an amazing block off a skate blade. 1-1 after one.

Mini-rant: Has anyone else had the pleasure of buying movie tickets on the Cineplex website? Nope, no pleasure in that at all! What a poor user interface, and what a tedious booking experience. And then charging users extra for buying online?? What's next - charging people for self-checkout?

Highways west of Edmonton are not great this morning because of snow - a few inches deep on the road and some blowing just underway. 65-75km/hr for most of the way past Stony Plain. Thankfully not too slippery (saw one car in the ditch.) #yeg #driving #wintertravel
