Alright first for the people that don't know Red Deer is 144.01km South of Edmonton with 82,772 residents so the drive should be about an hour and a bit. I know it isn't far but even the smallest step out of the city gives the wanderlust a bit of a nibble.
Trying to get out of town wasn't easy for us since we had a Friday night alcohol induced evening causing an 'Epic Fail' on my part. This ate up a lot of time on Saturday, waking up at 8am and not getting to Red Deer until 4pm....so many obstacles along the way.
Finally getting into our hotel we headed off to the play 'Dead Lovers Day' made it in the door with not a second to spare.
The evening started getting better from this point on.
A incredible play that I already saw once when they did a showing during the fringe festival here in Edmonton. now revamped with new costumes and a new character it was 10x more amazing.
Intermissions where everyone who hasn't been the same room together for what feels like eons, due to many of us relocating made many bear hugs and phantasmagorical reunions.
After the show it was time to celebrate the last showing and catch up with all sorts of old and new pretty awesome individuals. I met tons of kindred spirits and all in all the struggles we faced was worth the evening.
