A winter walk at Carburn Park

Yellowstone Vacation — Calgary to Yellowstone
I’ve wanted to visit Yellowstone National Park for years (as long as I can remember really) and Louise and I have often talked about going there. Every time it came up we ended up deciding that it was a little bit too far away and too ambitious a trip. But when we had some unplanned [...]
