Hi,

We recently had a great holiday in Canada. But besides not expecting the Tyrrell museum to be so good. The highlight of the trip was when we meet this cute little Ground Squirrel? at the Hoo Doo's. What a lady! She sure made a great Ambassador for Drumheller. I hope she keeps safe. Picture attached.

Thanks,
