Name one thing you like about Calgary

[Innersoul1]

As someone born and raised in Calgary I find that I often take for granted the many fantastic things that Calgary has to offer. While I find it very challenging to name just one thing that I like about Calgary on certain days, like today, it is easy.

I spent an absolutely fantastic day at Spruce Meadows today. I haven't been out there in years but it truly is a world-class facility! The crowd today was nothing short of amazing. It really is a fantastic family friendly place to check out. Rush tickets for the day were only $5. Mind you nobody checked my tickets today so realistically you could go for free

Love Love Love! Spruce Meadows

Isn't Spruce Meadows supposed to move sometime in the not too distant future?

Not that I know of, more with dealing with sustainability as the city encroaches.

For myself, Calgary is more about the opportunity. I like Calgary enough, there's a few other cities I could easily live in (Toronto, Vancouver, Victoria, my old hometown of Hamilton). My reason to move here was mostly job based, but the mountains and the quality of the city has made me feel good about my decision.

For my wife it's different. She's born and raised in England, and had never been to western Canada, only to eastern Canada two times. she was a bit worried about the move, but she's loving it here. She's completely enthralled with the rocky mountains, and really likes the city of Calgary.

I thought I read something in the papers a few years ago. I hope it doesn't move, the location is great where it is, even if is sis soon to be surrounded by beige.
