…and not a real one anywhere
During our trip to the Banff Centre we were hoping to see some wildlife. This was the closest thing to deer that we saw.
Back in Calgary, Kevin spotted a live deer in someone’s yard but I wasn’t able to capture a shot.

If you have any photos of trios that you would like to share just copy my link from this post and paste it into your own post. I will be sure to leave a comment when I get back home.
…As a child I couldn’t pronounce my ‘th’s….I would have called this flower a distle
BTW my grade one teacher’s name was Mrs. Thistle. She never corrected me on my pronunciation of her name.

…road trip to Banff
The morning started off cool and rainy. My brother-in-law lent us his old pickup truck which he affectionately calls Lucille, and we drove through the foothills of Alberta towards the Rocky Mountains.
As we got closer to Banff we started to see some of the mountains through the clouds but it wasn’t until we returned later that evening that we realized how much of the scenery had been obscured by the clouds. We were in awe.
As we approached Banff:
Throughout the day the weather constantly changed but towards late afternoon the sun started to peak though the clouds.
Not wanting to drive back to Calgary in the dark we left Banff around 7:00. This is when we realized how much of the Rockies we didn’t see in the morning.
