It's nuts. Again. The past few years have been crazy busy. Was talking to some friends yesterday who headed out to cycle on the Bow Valley Parkway but turned around at Hwy 68 due to traffic. I went to Springbank airport yesterday morning, just before 10. Stoney Trail was backed up past Tuscany and it was stop and go on the TCH as far as I could see even after I turned off at Springbank. My wife was in K Country and said it was as busy as she's seen it in the past few years. Barrier Lake was a zoo, people treating it as a beach hangout based on what they were carrying from their vehicles.
