Vintage with an update

The Chinook Mall in Calgary has a carousel.  It’s a classic with a twist.  Riders can choose from one of twenty hand carved steeds.  The twist, 10 of the vintage horses have been replaced with newer versions each of which sports the flower, flag and a representative scene from one of Canada’s provinces.  Interestingly, the one for Quebec is a bucking wild mustang.  Hmm.  Some artistic editorial comment?  They are all beautifully done.  I had to ride of course.
