I spend a lot of time driving around various parts of alberta and I find it kind of funny how wrong the common view of this province as unilingual, red neck cowboy country is. No doubt the redneck cowboy is out there, but driving east from edmonton and running into all the ukrainian heritage and hearing ukrainian spoken at the coffeshop or co-op, and then driving north and having my new brunswick friend translating what the french girls are saying about us. It really does give you a differnet view, and a real love for this place.

lol especially when the french girls don't realilze that atleast one of you understands them...

Went to the Pysanka festival in Vegreville this summer and it was a blast.
I guess there isn't as much dancing compitition as there used to be in the past but it was still very good in my eyes.
And the party in the nighttime was kickass. All the dancers get out there and show thier stuff freestyle. Flipping amazing what they can do!!



It's always a blast at Pysanka! Ya shoulda let me know you were going to be out this way Chumley. Only living 20 mins from Veg. I get to see a lot of this as there is always some sort of celebration going on around here.This whole area was settled by the Ukranians. I think we have the largest Ukrainian population in the west.


Probably going again next year, So see ya there [B-o]

called a kid at school that once and got punced in the gut,as well as being called a stupid Englishman. Soon after he was trying to puke his testicles out. Not sure how the term got transferred from German Bohemians to Slavs or why some get offended and others don't. For years the Ukrainian festival bas been nicknamed the Hunky Hoe Down by Ukrainian and non Ukrainian alike

Kinda like the term Newfy I guess. I have never been offended by it, but remember that other Newf that was on the board for a short bit who was trying to equate it to a racial slur?
