North to Canada and a special trip into the past


The little Commander is stoked up about going to the Winnipeg Folk Festival. The wagon will head out on Sunday. There may be a Friday sail, before the big trip. I can think of no other place where you can be transported back to the 60's like the Folk Festival. People dress like the good old days, the air is filled with buzzweed odors, and the Canadians know how to relax and have a good time. Ethnic foods are part of the spirit. It is a chance for a fat guy to see what the cafeteria in Heaven will be like. The music cannot be beat. There are five stages running live music at the same time. If you don't like what you hear, you move to the next stage. The big problem is that most of the time you like what you hear on every stage. On the way up we are going to stop at a wonderful Canadian park. In so many respects the Canadians know how to do it right. The parks in Canada are all much better done than the ones in our country. We will camp for three days, and then go on to Winnipeg. The Canadian people are much more relaxed because of their health care system. They are not caught up worrying about how an illness will bankrupt them. Lord Kadizzle will be in Canada for about ten days. I hope you let me back in our country.
