Waaaay back when, before she married, my mom lived in #YEG. Yesterday I was going through some old photos of my mom’s and I found some postcards from the mid-50’s she’d bought but never sent. Thought I’d share for all my #Edmonton pals.

Judging by her photos, she took a road trip to Calgary in 1956. The photos were pretty bad, though, and mostly of people we can’t identify. Still, it was cool to see what my mom was up to at 20, and considering we’re all from Cape Breton, how well-travelled she was then!
