Thief steals memories

would like to extend a big thank you to the person(s) who walked off with my camera and snacks at the horse show held

Dear Editor:

I would like to extend a big thank you to the person(s) who walked off with my camera and snacks at the horse show held at the Ponoka Ag Event Centre June 17.

My granddaughter and I had spent all day Saturday enjoying the show and talking with the participants and spectators. I did a stupid thing, and on Sunday I walked away with my granddaughter and left my bag sitting in the stands. I had done this several times on Saturday and it was not an issue, but my luck ran out on Sunday. Apparently, a gentleman was seen taking the bag and it was believed he was going to turn it in — I guess he changed his mind.

We had a wonderful time at the show and will attend again, but I will not leave anything behind. Lesson learned; not everyone is honest. I have to remember there is usually one among us.

I hope the camera gives the thief as good of pictures as it did me. I’m just sorry that my granddaughter can’t have the pictures of her friend.
