Lake Louise driving 1A





If you have not noticed I am madly in love with Canada. Let's discuss Beth's loves in life ---here goes ... Virginia is my heart, West Virginia is my lungs it keeps me breathing 'cause it is oh so close to my real home, Montana & Wyoming I have a madly silly love for ever since I 1st traveled there with my parents in the early 90's & finally ... Canada comes into play & knocks every other state in the United States right out of the ball park. Sorry other states you need to start working your magic cause Canada is winning big time!! BIG TIME!!!

I really feel I had no clue how beautiful Canada is. When chatting with folks you will find that folks either really love or hate Canada. My question is how can you hate Canada? we had a rainy trip but refused to let it get us down. the fog is trying to break away. pics taken August 2014. Beth. ( :

I agree that Canada has some world class scenery. The rainy days can't hurt the Canadian pictures.

I agree with you about Canada's beauty although most of what I've seen is in pictures..It's very buggy though..Maybe that's because I was around the water ways..

I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get ...

We both shared such a love for travel & photography. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, great "CameraGirl", RIP! ( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you...
