[Edmonton, Alberta]Song of the day: Sweet Ones - Sarah Slean
Yep, definitely one of the best (if not THE best) surprise I've ever taken part in.
We made the call to the Bowron residence, got the parents in on it, and drove over to Rachel's house. We did the knock on the door, have the mom ask for the daughter's help (cause she couldn't keep the dogs away from the door and open it at the same time), start the christmas carol, and wait for the door to open.
R: "...(wait....wait...)...(I know that song.... I know those faces.... but.........)..."
(Shaking laughter, and an unfinished carol)
And some quality time in the kitchen and then basement (which is VERY nice I might add) and then off to 117th St.
A very 'urgent' call about a glove, a confused Daneel coming to the door, and three young guys come out from around the evergreen in the front yard.
Hoja: "What... what house are we at? Is... is this the right one? I don't even.... What city is this? What are we doing here? Are we supposed to be here? I don't know what's going on."
(Smiles)
We/I managed to keep it a secret for the full two-ish weeks that we knew we were coming early, and holy shit was it ever worth it.
