    Default "I Love Sandy" - Canyon Meadows/Macleod Northbound

    I'm sure that I am not the only one who has noticed this....

    When heading Northbound on Macleod look to the slope on the right hand side of the Canyon Meadows Drive overpass. If you go there today you will see someone has shovelled a huge message into the snow which is basically a large heart with the words "Sandy" inside of it.

    I've seen this happen year after year...snowfall after snowfall since I was a kid. That overpass has been there for a LONG time now (goes back to my elementary/junior high days) and without question the same message is shovelled into the snow whenever there is a fresh snow fall.

    Just something interesting thats all......maybe someday a member will feel the need to profess their love for Beyond via snow shovel .

    Anyone know who is doing this/has noticed it before?

    He/she has been writing that since the over pass was built (same here, elementary/jr. high years)

    Editted: After learning story behind the situation.

    Sandy probably has a stalker and breaks into a cold sweat whenever she sees that.

    ...or maybe Sandy has just come to expect it, so now if buddy doesn't do it, he'll be in deep doo doo.


    ...I too remember seeing it in Junior high and High School (Robert Warren and E.P. Scarlett) Go Trojans!

    Sounds like good material for a beyond puff piece, now that it is part of the Canada.com network.

    The friend of the guy that does it called in to the radio station one day to explain it.

    Sandy is the guy's sister. She was killed in an accident of some sort and does this as a memorial to her.

    Calgary is so much like an iphone: iCalgary - There's a bylaw for that.

    That makes more sense than for a gf/wife. Good for him (assuming the story is true).

    Thx for posting! Have always wondered what the story behind the message was.

    Today someone wrote a "+ Merry Xmas" next to it.
