Last night here in the capital City of Ottawa it was Christmas.

Tears and beers flowed when Crosby made it ours.

The "Heart and Crown" pub in the Byward Market downtown Ottawa was where it started for us at 1 PM for lunch and then the bevvies began to flow.

The place was packed by game time and when it ended throngs of hockey fans poured into the streets of Ottawa to make their way to the Parliament Buildings to continue the celebrations.

Streets were closed off and fans were high fiving each other, cheering, singing and
shouting as the night wore on.

Lucky me to be here for this surprise occasion.

On another note, Gord's upcoming concert here is very well advertised. Posters are everywhere in the malls, stores, coffee shops, etc.

Very good vibes all around in the great Canuck Capital!

Cheers, Ron J.
