I had not planned on heading for home for a few more days and today was supposed to be the day I went to Vancouver Island to spend a couple of days with my brother Doug and his wife Erin. But, when driving through the mountains on the way west, I noticed a sign that… Continue reading Winnipeg to Vancouver – Heading for Home – Day 1 & 2

Day 12 – Jasper to Banff
Another beautiful morning and there was no frost on my car windows. 🙂 I took a picture of the mountains from my room in the dark before heading over for breakfast. Mountains are beautiful even in the dark. For breakfast this morning I had banana bread french toast and it was delicious. I didn’t stop… Continue reading Day 12 – Jasper to Banff

I had breakfast at… Continue reading Day 11 – Jasper
