I’m in Brandon helping with Social Role Valorization (SRV) training, so thought I’d check out the Paula Cole concert tonight. I thought she was great - in full command of her amazing voice. There’s currently a $20 offer for her show in Winnipeg tomorrow/Oct 22. It would be money well spent.

Huh, I thought Costco was expanding in Winnipeg - I didn't think we'd lose St. James. There are much bigger issues--bummer I'm losing one close to work though.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I just found out today when I came across his grave site.

I had no idea that Ted Longbottom had passed away until I came upon his grave site during a walk through Balsam Bay Cemetery on Lake Winnipeg. I remember him as a very gifted songwriter and storyteller. Rest in peace.
I figured @fpkevinrollason.bsky.social would have posted about him.

For those wondering: it is the newly released covid vaccine. They just got it in, so made it available as little early.

I actually went back to get details since I was still out and about. They just got it in Friday and so are rolling it out a little early.

Got the updated covid vaccine. Osborne Village Shoppers remains easy peasy, taking both appointments as well as walk ins. flu shot available as well. Eligibility remains broad in Manitoba 🙏 www.gov.mb.ca/covid19/vacc...

Juvel put on a great show at the Garrick Hotel bar tonight. It's a cool venue.
Hot club swing with Andrews Sisters twist and a dash of Argentinian flavour.

The Portage-facing space at Manitoba Hydro HQ (previously Marcello's) is now occupied by Bagelsmith and Colosimo (with a pizza kiosk coming). Source great food and support businesses voting on downtown!
