Rocky Mountain Beauty

Being back in our ‘home’ city has been great, in that seeing family and friends is wonderful and important. However, the city itself has been a bit depressing for me as the growth and change it has experienced has not been all positive in my eyes. So, our short pre-anniversary trip to Canmore was a much needed boast to my mental wellbeing.

The view from our hotel room balcony was a fantastic precursor to what was in store for us in this mountain haven. The Three Sisters is a mountain that holds significant importance to our family, and seeing it each morning was heart warming.
We were especially fortunate with the weather while we were there and it provided a wonderful opportunity to capture images of some of the best Alberta has to offer.
We spent our time wandering the great path system throughout the town.
When I saw this I laughed out loud. It just seemed to typify the Canadian attitude toward winter and the cold. Always optimistic.
The Bow River provides a great setting. So peaceful, yet powerful.
Even as we drove back to Calgary the mountains and river continued to provide images that uplifted ones mind.

I hope you enjoyed a glimpse of the beauty we got to experience. It certainly was good for us.
