- The water slide park is long gone I am sure (just didn't notice the last few visits). That little area seems very underdeveloped to me?
- The build up of stores across from Chinook. I remember a bingo hall and industrial buildings surrounding the fancy new C-train station.
- Many people remember the Chi-Chi's along Macleod - I am sure there was a Big Boy there also.

- are there still bottle depots?

- No story book characters on the hill next to Lake Bonavista.

- I looked, but didn't see the big "H" at the car dealer on Macleod. Is it still there?


Admittedly I was a bit oblivious as I was driving and my attention was divided between listing to dad's stories and not hitting the car in front of me.
loved the Chi Chi's. after that it was another Mexican restaurant, Gringos. the Bobs big boy was down the street by the Cheescake Factory
