Anyway here's a picture of my little bear at YYC earlier this evening.

I dropped my family off which is always really hard for me.

I did manage to not break up in the airport though, so that's good. (I made it to the highway before I cracked, lol)

It's new hat day!

I've had my eye on this cap for awhile, but the cost had been keeping me away. Went to get a less expensive cap today and this one was 40% off!
