Alberta doesn't usually look like that just before Christmas! That is a Centennial Maple Leaf. They were everywhere in 67; even on the money!

That restraunt has been turned into a chinese place called bamboo chopsticks. They have a daily lunch smorg which is just unreal. Pretty cheap too, 7.50 the last time I ate there. The building still looks almost identical. The building to the right in the photo has been changed a bit and is occupied by synery accountants and the building to the left in the photo i think a good friend of mine lived in for awhile. hope that help.

It doesn't, but I was interested, and thought that someone from Vegreville might be on. Is that ok with you? I suppose you could petition the moderators to move it to misc if you really felt strongly...

According to the laws of Semiotics, Vegreville can be used in any internet thread-including aviation forums-and automatically be on topic.


I got my class 3 truck driving license in Vegreville-Vegreville is home to the worlds largest Ukranian easter Egg.



Eggs come from birds,.... birds fly, ....airplanes fly.....bingo-bango:On Topic.

Vegreville CEV3 is also the cross country flight test destination from Wetaskiwin
( CEX3) for the ppl.

A Minister of Transport comes from Vegreville....

What else?....hmmmm .....well, for political plum reasons, they moved some immigration centers-from places like Toronto and Vancouver, where there are actually a lot of immigrants [although I don't really believe there is any such place called "Toronto"] -to Vegreville, where there are no immigrants. ahahahaha.

Okay that's enough for the time being.



Now I'm going to go around the internet and put Vegreville into random threads,,,,,,

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure that short piece of yellow-painted curb still exists ( or several inexplicably short useless yellow curbs just like it scattered around Vegreville ).

I parked my Gravel Truck at the curb -in winter for my class 3 road test-and the drivers license examiner guy gave me one wrong.

" How come you gave me one wrong, for that parking job, ?" I asked him.

"There's a no-parking yellow curb here , where you parked"

I said-"There's a foot of snow over the road and the sidewalk-we can't see any pavement or sidewalk-never mind any paint on it" I said.

" Ahahahahaha-I know ...I know..." he said

"everybody gets that one wrong".
