….from the Banff Centre


…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.
