As I thought of my wrap-up for 2010 on The Adventures of Carol & Bob, I realized that two of our favourite trips occurred pre-blog. I began this blog with a practice run on a Jasper trip in April, but we had previously had our traditional Christmas/New Years and Family Day Weekend trips to Beaver Mines, Pincher Creek, Waterton, Crowsnest Pass, Burmis, Livingston Pass, Lundbreck Falls, etc. in December/January and February.I won't take up a lot of space with narrative, but the link below will take you to a mini-album of a sampling of the pictures that illustrate why we love that part of the province so much. You can take Banff and place it in a dark, cold corner somewhere, but there is nothing like the stark beauty of Waterton in winter ... or the rows upon rows of wind turbines in Pincher Creek, or the long abandoned farms and coal mines.
This is the place my heart calls "home". My corner of southwestern Alberta.
