THE CANADIAN ROCKIES
This is just a small portion of some of the 500 photos we took.
To be honest, I have seen many of the world's greatest scenic places, but there really isn't a place quite like the Canadian Rockies. In fact, I feel like these pictures don't even do it justice. Gary and Regina also were there just two weeks before us and got some better pictures. Still, I feel the scenery there is so beautiful that a camera simply cannot capture its awesome-ness. God definitely knew what he was doing when He created this place!
While we were there, we saw colors I have never seen before, including the bluest blue to go along with their icy glaciers and some of the bluest-green (and yet crystal clear when you look up close) water in various lakes.
Even though we were tired from putting almost 900 miles of driving on our rental car in less than 5 days, I couldn't have been happier about getting a chance to see these beautiful mountains. We also saw some big horned sheep, deer, chipmunks, squirrels, etc.
This place is a definitely must see if you're ever near Calgary or in Alberta.

i enjoy seeing pictures of city slickers in the wilderness! they always seem amazed on how green and natural things are or how clean the air is. but my favorite sight is seeing city folk run for their lives away from them giant mosquitos!! haha
 
wow!! these pictures take my breath away...wish we could've been there...difficult to travel with a kid so we couldn't make it to the wedding. =(
