Yep, very cool place, indeed.

I’m going to get these mixed up- Calgary has caves or something underground I’m supposed to check out? It was Calgary or Moose Jaw (I think)

Then there’s a steam train that takes you to an old west period village that’s supposedly a great way to spend part of a weekend, but I don’t remember if that was Moose Jaw or somewhere else

Someone on here will know
Moose Jaw underground

You are studying bread and I am watching your strange slang and jokes. Although I have not read the old aphorisms, I can feel the artistic atmosphere. It is a good opportunity to learn

We are a very eclectic group. That's one of the reasons I enjoy it so much.

I think the Train is Stettler
There is a steam engine that runs from Stettler to Big Valley. Great fun for kids of all ages. A very good meal awaits you in Big Valley. They were doing some renos on the steam engine a few years back, don't know if they're done yet. I think they ran some early diesel locos in it's stead.

No caves in Calgary that I'm aware of. The steam train and old west village may very well be Heritage Park.

I think the Stettler steam train runs in the summer & diesel in the winter. The "boss" took me n' the grandkids on the diesel ride theme train before X-mas ( Polar Express). A bit pricey but very much a fun evening for the kids. The steam train is an "old west theme" with open car viewing & a wild west train robbery skit. The passenger cars appear to be WW11 vintage but are dressed to look like something our great grandfolks would have boarded to migrate & settle the west
