bison steak

Okotoks, 2002.04.27

I had bison steak today at a place in Okotoks which, fifteen years ago, had been the Lazy L. The place we always went to with the gliding crowd at Cu-Nim when they were heading into town. Mmmm, Bison steak. It was good; nice amount of fat; tasted somewhat like beef but tougher and 'gamey'.

It sure was an amazing night for wildlife. We saw an owl with a wingspan of maybe a metre just on the southern edge of the town about half an hour after sunset. And there seemed to be a pack of coyotes tearing into something just out of sight south of the highway; I've never heard so many of the things!

The point isn't revenge. It is justice. Revenge is like a wave that washes up on shore - it always washes back out again. Justice is like the shore - it's still there after the wave comes and goes.
