Good weather, good roads and good gas
prices led us to a weekend away in Canmore. For those of you who live outside
Alberta, Canmore is just before the gateway to Banff National Park and just
inside the beginning of the mountains. It was a perfect weekend for a mini
retreat.
I like being around big things. As I have
written before, I don’t see detail, but I can make out larger objects.
Mountains fall into this category. I can
see the huge shapes even though I might not be able to see a definitive
outline.
In Canmore, we walked on a number of the
river trails and other trails leading through the trees. Canmore is a fairly
active and sports minded community and we passed many other people also
walking, jogging, running and biking. The trails were wide enough for Lyle and
I to walk side by side and the number of people using the trails meant that the
snow was packed down and walking was easy. It was nice to be able to enjoy our
outside activity in a different location.
Lyle took the accompanying picture on one
of our walks. The majestic mountain peaks were quite visible when we looked
across the river.
