So, I heard the RCMP were recruiting so, while in Regina, I stopped by “depot” to submit an application. I already had my own red coat so should definitely get a spot. Hmm. Not so fast, Lobster Boy. Although I was disappointed that I won’t be a new cadet, I did stop in to say hello to a couple of fellow mascots.
The Andy Warhol exhibit was a highlight. This is a rare retrospective of Warhol’s work that will only be seen in 3 Canadian cities, Victoria, Winnipeg and Regina. I was disappointed that my commissioned Warhol was not on display, although the Queen, Mick Jagger and Wayne Gretsky were included.
I also hung out in the workroom of the Regina Qu’Appelle Library, providing advice and assistance on reference and research questions. Jeff’s cubicle was a particularly favoured spot. I was sorry to say “so long” to all my friends in Regina, but look forward to seeing them all again in Halifax!
