Ok..so... Mom & Ray said it's my turn to blog!
Yesterday, hmm, well let's see.
Oh yeah, yesterday started bright 'n early in Lethbridge Alberta at a Canada's Best Value Inn. We left for Calgary...I was hoping to find a longboard from a local company, Ground Control Longboards. Ray was pretty valiant in his quest to help me find a skateshop in town to buy one, that didn't really happen. We found a shop but the guys running the skateboard section hadn't ever heard of the company!
Anyway, we headed out Candian Highway 1 which took us out to the Canadian Rockies. Yes, the Canadians have a section of the Rockies that is unlike the rest down in the US of A. The difference lying in, "...The treeline seems lower than in Colorado, I mean here it's BAM! right there..." from Ray and "The peaks are just more...jagged and rough, they're just BOLD" as my mom said.

My perspective is--it amazes me at how the same Hands that mold us like clay, are the same Hands strong enough to carve these mountains out of the ground. These are the same Hands that are gentle enough to catch our tears.
You wanna see? I'll stop typing here and put some pics up.

Here is Ray infront of the Crow's Foot Glacier
We missed going to Lake Louise and the Fairmont Hotel. So we stopped in at the Num-Ti-Jah Lodge at Bow Lake.
We had some good food. Mom had halibut, Ray had beef tenderloin, and I had some awesome Orange Ginger Duck. Afterwards, we shared slices of pecan pie and vanilla cheesecake, again AWESOME!
Finally, we had to leave to make it to the Hinton KOA. Mom is ECSTATIC not to have to stay at anymore KOA's for the rest of the trip. Here are some pics as we left the Lodge.

Good night to All! Nic
