The next year we attended the rodeo at Whoop-up Days , Lethbridge 's answer ( but not a very good one ) to the world-famous Calgary Stampede . Prevention for Cruelty to Animals mucking out kennels and catteries - - an unsavoury but not unpleasant experience . He raced with brother-in-law John and niece Claire . England has no similar facilities - - nor are any of her children there . For Shakespeare she has seen King Lear and the Tempest in Auckland , and Romeo and Juliet in Hamilton . Because our letters seem excessively syrupy , sickly-sweet , all wonderful this and fabulous that , this year we have begun on a hard-edged , grittier note . But not in Calgary : in Lethbridge , a much more modest town not far from the US border , two or three hours drive south of Calgary , with a small , low profile , but quite respectable university . We took them sailing to celebrate Craig 's 30th birthday on May 21 - - late in the sailing season , but not too late . In Lethbridge she met Joan , a harp - and recorder-playing soulmate , a very good musician , and had some - - but not enough !
