Banff, Canada

Once upon a time....

Our picture..today !  One fabulous place !

The Hotel Banff Springs

Banff Parks Museum...opened 1903

The museum's mission was to include a representative for every known creature that resided in the park area.

  And it does!!  It has celebrated over 100 years of public viewing.

Lake Louise, Canada

Lake Louise...just as stunning as I remember it ! 

Our family visited this site when I was a "young'n".... some 60 years ago.

This is a postcard overview, with the Chateau at the bottom of Lake Louise.

Drive on Icefields Parkway

This was our "goodbye" as we left Jasper in the morning

These pix were taken as we drove along the highway heading east towards Banff.

Our Beach on Puget Sound

~The morning mist across Colvos Passage ~

Our beach is the perfect place.....

.....for a solo stroll.

Especially at low tide !

Boating !

and there's fishing....

....and even catching!

Always fun playing in the sand...

And then there is reading a good book.....

...while watching the traffic go by.

indeed, we are fortunate to have ...

our special place !
