Edmonton - meat on stick, beer gardens, and music

[Coldrsx]

My better half and I headed a few blocks from our condo to check out the annual 'Taste of Edmonton' event downtown. Essentially it is a sampling from some of Edmonton's restaurants, live music, and beer outside... could it get any better? Yes... meat on sticks... it is all I have and all I need.

Love it Cold. It's this time of year that I miss being in Edmonton the most.

[bigcitydude]

so what's happening in Waterloo these days?

[mthq]

meh.. forgetable really..

[ue]

^ ? In what regard. Sure, the images aren't the most high quality but give a nice glance at some Edmonton architecture and festival atmosphere.

[mthq]

I love Edmonton a lot, but if Coldsrx can leave tasteless comments (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showpost.php?p=4848593&postcount=8)on other peoples threads, surely I can return the favor.

Um... that thread was about a tour of ghetto Honolulu.... was i suppose to say how pretty?

[ue]

LOL...Cold, in case you haven't noticed, there's a huge market for "ghetto" (preferred term is usually grit) among photographers on this website. Mthq's tour was nice and gave a look at Honolulu I'd never seen.
