"Roadtripping" documents a decade of road trips through the fiefdom of Alberta. The men and women who make up the Buffalo Gals first set out in July 1999 to experience the unusual and charming roadside attractions of south-central Alberta. Never dreaming that this one-off adventure would turn into an annual event, it's ten years later and they continue their escapades. Each year a new destination is chosen and the weekend-long travel begins. Traditions have evolved including elaborate scrapbooking, eating in gourmet dining rooms (when available) and excessive snacking (without fail). Beyond the joys and challenges of being on the road and a deepening bond of friendship, this book is a love poem to Alberta, a province often misunderstood and mislabelled as being the right-wing cowboy haunt of Canada. With trip route maps, hilarious photos, and appendices including checklists and recipes, "Roadtripping" explores the bizarre and wonderful attractions of wild rose country, stuffed gophers, political fanaticism, mad cows and more.
Based on the novel by Bruce Allen Powe, 'The Aberhart Summer' is a dark 'coming of age' story where desperation, secrets and tragedy affect the lives of the people in an Edmonton neighbourhood during the Depression. Throughout the novel, Doug Sayers recalls his teenage years and the time of crisis surrounding the mysterious death of his best friend. Bruce Allen Powe meshes fact with fiction in this tale of politics and passion.
