On Friday July 25th I headed down to Carseland. There I met up with Chris, Connie and guest photographer Byron Robb, at the Blue Saloon, in the Carseland Hotel. We spent the afternoon and evening visiting with all the locals and carrying out another Beer Parlour Project outing. This one was number 33, and therefore officially known as BP33.0.
Later in the evening Brendan Coulter, a reporter from CBC Calgary, came out and did some interviews with us, and shot a bunch of video at the establishment.
A short time afterwards a written article appeared on the CBC News website. I posted that on my blog a few days ago. I understand that we were also featured in a TV report on CBC news the next night. I still haven't seen that video footage, but reached out to CBC to obtain copies. Hopefully they send something our way soon.
Following that CBC report we saw a significant spike in traffic at our website and had nearly 40 people reach out to us with comments and support.
After we wrapped things up in Carseland, I headed across country over to East Coulee, and crashed for the night in my trailer. The next morning I hit the road for Nordegg, and arrived at the cottage in the afternoon.
wow
