Lake Louise gondola ride






our gondola ride while at Lake Louise ...just amazing. we had an amazing dinner drooling over this view. it's funny how you think you get all the essential shots & then you get home and realize you must have never taken a meal picture? oops!!! 

saw a grizzly bear. pics i will share very soon. there are fences every where surrounding the area because bears are known to be so close. 

my question is: if a bear really wanted to get through, would those electrical fences really keep them out? or is it just something to make us think it is keeping us safe??! Beth ( :

Hi, Beth. I'm not sure about the Grizzly, guess it depends on how hungry the fellow is. I love the last picture with the flowers.

A fine series of pretty pictures. I have the feeling the bear would go wherever he wanted to...regardless of pain.

Gorgeous views!

The bear will come through if he really wants to, but the idea is that it'll give him a moment to think, "is this really worth my bother?"

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
