[Flickered Flame]

By Canada's best baseball writer (imo) Bob Elliott.

There are at least two feet of snow as Jim Amy, hard-working Okotoks Dawgs director, drives his car down the road towards Seaman Stadium.
It’s a wonder he can keep his car on the road.
The roads are dry and clear, as the Weather Channel might say, but my oh my, you should see the breath-consuming view on this beautiful, sunny Alberta afternoon.
The snow-covered peaks of the Rocky Mountains sit in the distance, maybe be 70 miles away, but they look much closer.
You almost expect to see a photog setting up to take a postcard.
There are three feet of snow covering Seaman Stadium and a four-foot drift behind the press box of the 2,650 Seaman Stadium, named after Donald R. Seaman and the late Daryl K. (Doc) Seaman, part owner of the NHL’s Calgary Flames.
The Seamans, Alberta energy entrepreneurs and philanthropists, built the beautiful yard at a price of $8 million. The two brothers each contributed more than $4 million apiece.
Walking out of the snow, away from the empty seats and chilled concrete and into the $2 million Duvernay Fieldhouse with its Field Turf and full-sized infield is a different scene.
