Title: At my office in San Jose
Post by: SFEnnisSF on June 16, 2007, 05:52:46 pm: I think San Jose must be the only place in the country where folks (the local police in this case) ride up on horseback to go to Starbucks. :laugh:

Post by: Shakesthecoffecan on July 25, 2007, 01:46:41 pm: I am just now finding this, that's a hoot! I have often wondered if the mounted police clean up after their horses or do they just ride away......

I love the way they let the horsies drink out of the fountain. Essentially, our fountain is just a big horse trough.. :laugh:

Post by: belbbmfan on August 09, 2007, 04:50:55 pm: People have asked me whether we saw any mounties in Canada.

We did, but only in Fort Macleod, putting on a show for the handfull of tourists that had showed up. :-\

You might have seen more, and under less tourist-y circumstances, had you ventured a bit east into the neighboring province of Saskatchewan, and its capital of Regina. I understand that the Mounties have their official headquarters and/or training camp in that city.
