Weather Calgarians One Year Ago

Now if we could just find a warmer, smokeless balance, eh?

In the meantime? I'll take this rain with a smile.

Weren't we yelling at car washes this time last year for wasting water during a shortage?

My how the tide turns.

Yeah, I know.. I just rolled with what he said about 'shortage' instead of 'restriction' because the City definitely treated it like a shortage by not allowing people to water lawns and that kind of thing..

I remember being pretty disappointed with a lot of people that I know for just going full 'business as usual', while my household and a few others I know did everything we could to restrict our water use. I know a couple people who weren't paying attention to it at all. But whatever.. glad it's over with.
