Showfill, Soapbox Derby

Greg's away on a cross-Canada adventure, starting w/ the world's biggest teepee and moving on to other monuments to local tourism. SO I filled in for him this morning on Soapbox Derby. It was pretty fun: we talked bees with Chloe Bennett of the Landscape Architecture program at UBC and with Eliese Watson of ABC: Apiaries and Bees for Communities in Calgary.
