Host With The Most [Leap Of Faith]
Sunday, July 19th, 2015 I never imagined that I’d become so attached to a fair location, but something about Red Deer really spoke to me. I don’t know if it was the great location for our set-up, the first name basis I achieved with a local pizza joint, or the over-all vibe, but I…

Fireworks [Deep-Fried Avocado]
Saturday, July 18th, 2015 Today, aside from being a day filled with working, was a “fair” day, as in; I hit up the fair. I got to see what must’ve been one of THE greatest fireworks displays I’ve ever seen (which there is a small sample of above). I also got to try something NEW,…

Cancelled [Secondary Post-Secondary]
Friday, July 17th, 2015 Up until today, despite inclement weather, we have still been able to do all of our scheduled shows (despite smaller audiences when it was windy and drizzly). The forecast for today was rain, 100%, all day… With crazy wind. One of the reasons I am so confident that it rained…

Hail Hell [Stick Entertainment 101]
Thursday, July 16th, 2015 I figured that after all the nasty weather we’ve had so far, I must’ve seen it all, rain, thunder, sun showers, rainbows, lightning… I was wrong. Very wrong. We got Hail, and lots of it. We were lucky again in having our shows dry, but in between, before, and after…

Fresh Meat [We Are Bowman Valley/Identity Crisis]
Wednesday, July 15th, 2015 Three titles. This one must be good. To start off, let’s talk about the fresh meat, I’ll prepare you right right now by saying: this is a double entendre (youve been warned, so I’d advise you to look away if you’re easily succeptible to wordplay related injuries). With Maddy away…

Gypsy [The Thing About Kelly]
Tuesday, July 14th, 2015 At last the day has come. Time to do laundry. There are 3 very easy steps to tell when it is essential that one should do their laundry: You start rooting through previously worn clothes smelling them to determine their likelihood of being re-worn. You start wearing bathing suits at shorts,…

When A Jaguar Is More Famous Than You [Being Baghera: The Jaguar Issue]
Monday, July 13th, 2015 Let’s face it, you’re all getting tired of hearing about us humans. Let’s mix it up. As you may have guessed by the title, this “issue” of my blog is all about Baghera the Jaguar. When Baghera (also called Baggy) came to our zoo from Jungle Cat World in Orono,…

Road To Red Deer [Somewhere That’s Green]
Sunday, July 12th, 2015 After last nights late bedtime due to packing up, I wasn’t too excited to be up so early in the morning to leave. At the same time however, I was very excited to leave. After a quick shower and an emotional “last time using the wi-fi”, we were on the road on…

Chaos Theory [Backstage]
Saturday, July 11th, 2015 Today was our last day of shows here in Lloydminster, and the general feeling was that of relief, as our location in the middle of a parking lot was less than ideal, not to mention the heat and wind. After what felt like a relaxed morning, I got all cozy and…

Free Corn [Be Careful What You Wish For]
Friday, July 10th, 2015 Today was a day much like any other. Specifically the previous few days, as it was HOT outside. All I could think about all day was a big, sweet, delicious cob of roasted corn, which I could smell all the way from our secluded corner of the fair grounds, and…
