Canada Day is a busy day for us reporters, what with all the special events and all. July 1 was also the small hamlet of Entwistle’s (out in the middle of nowhere, click here for a map) 100th anniversary celebration. So I was sent to the community for a photo assignment. Surprisingly, many people turned up for the event, which was mainly because it was their centennial milestone. Among the events include the standard parade along with a petting zoo, street performing clowns, bouncy rooms and the works. Here is a small sample of some of the shots I took.

Awww. So cute, you gotta love baby animals.
