This past Friday night was a whiteout party in Winnipeg with an estimated 15,000 people in the street party (matching the number of people in the arena) mostly dressed in white and 32 seconds into the game against the Minnesota Wild the game was effectively over and the party continued and now the Jets wait for the winner of the Colorado Nashville series.

Looks like Nashville.

There was for a period of time a number of pianos variously painted to be found around downtown locations in Winnipeg. This is the only one I can still find at a local mall. I was there this week listening to a musician playing Imagine by John Lennon to an audience of one. It put me in mind of this image of the trio clustered around the pianist.

I like the line up of the kids the best. Looks like you don't have any snow left now?;-)

I like them all. Each has it's own story to tell.

The person on the right is picking up a bicycle that was hit by the car on the left. The person that was riding the bicycle hit the pavement running and was last seen running down the street.

In Winnipeg you cannot be more downtown than the corner of Portage and Main... supposedly the windiest corner in Canada. A lot of red on the 2017 Canada Day (150th anniversary of Canada). This shot really needed to be taken from 1 or 2 stories up but all the buildings on the corner were closed to the public on this date.
