Classic Canadiana
A glimpse of the Banff Springs Hotel (someday I’ll stay here, but a visit to the Rundle Lounge in the Hotel is the next best thing!) And further down the road, a sliver of beautiful Lake Louise…. Since this is the first of my favourite places I’ve visited (having camped in Banff as a little…

Full Moon After A Spectacular Summer Day
Between 9am and midnight on Saturday, I spent a total of about an hour inside. That is a perfect summer day in my books. We are in the midst of a heatwave here (a thunderstorm with a good soaking rain would be most welcome). It’s the kind of heat that soaks into your bones, and…
