  • a Tuesday sunset

    When the temperature is -40 degrees celsius are there nice sunsets? I realized during the last couple of weeks when it’s been so cold I haven’t paid attention to what it looked like outside.

    Prince Albert National Park Sunset

    Waskesiu Lake sunset at Prince Albert National Park….my favourite part of camping in the park was listening to the sounds of loons calling in the distance.  If you look at this picture long enough, you just might be able to hear their distinctive and haunting song. Made me think of how many National Parks I’ve…
