In the chilly evening of January 17, 2021 we drove to downtown Calgary with the intention of visiting three of its parks. We ended up checking only two of them. Our start point was James Short Park, three blocks away from the second park we visited, The Olympic Plaza.
James Short Park is a small green area in the heart of downtown Calgary with many benches to sit, a cupola with a clock and a small playground at the back. During the winter there is no much to do there.
We walked around investigating everything and taking photos. At the very back of the park we found a sculpture called The Past, Present and Future by Gernot Kiefer.
The sculpture was "calling us" for silly photos!
We did not know while at the park that the sculpture represents the progression of people through time, but I guess that Arthur had "the feeling" of it (check out his edition on the photo!)
... Perhaps it is the Black Hole that takes us to the future (or to the past?)!
I, Arthur liked the clock tower and its lights! and that's it!.)
At the City of Calgary you can find more information about James Short Park and here you find
a bit more about the sculpture The Past, Present and Future by Gernot Kiefer.
We had so much fun taking silly photos that we almost forgot that we still had another park to visit....but this is story for another post.
