Default The Olympics . . . . 20 years later

Nice profile of Robin Perry who, as a 12 year-old, lit the flame at the Calgary Olympics.

The Opening Ceremony was a cold day but aside from the events, medal ceremonies, etc I attended, the one memory that sticks out is the city was pretty much brown under a Chinook by the second week and a kid was skateboarding along the Bow River in a T-shirt.

I missed a lot of the television coverage during those weeks as I was volunteering helping with a play at the Pumphouse Theatre . . . .
