We had a great guide, toured the infield, checked out the performers area below the main stage, and met a Stampede Princess. This new addition to the Stampede fun is totally worth checking out. Meet them near the pioneer statue beside the Nutien Building
Celebrating another turn around the sun at Bow & B Celebrating another turn around the sun at Bow & Bend Rooftop Bar in the new Element Hotel by Westin. Had my favorite shrimp and grits, and a strip loin done to perfection along with a Stampede inspired rose. Great views and the best company as always.

Lucky to join the fine folks at Fairmont Palliser Lucky to join the fine folks at Fairmont Palliser this morning to kick off the Calgary Stampede. The buffet was fabulous as always (mimosas, yes please), loved the bougie cowboy decor (way to kick it up a notch), the parade gets better every year, and the weather cooperated. A nice walk home through the park with my "plus one". Let's go Calgary! Yahoo! @fairmontpalliser @calgarystampede @tourismcalgary #stampede2025 #fairmontpalliser @fairmonthotels #yycnow ##yycliving
