Yesterday we drove outside of Calgary, through the farm land... Lots of hay rolls around. I don't know why, but when I see them - it feels to me like summer is almost over. Technically it isn't, but somehow... mmm...

Cactuses... interesting plants, aren't they? We've found some, indoors as well as outdoors... One can find then in Southern Alberta, in the Drumheller Valley area... It's hot enough there for them.

Here's a new series, Lake Louise. I think Lake Louise (located at Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada) is the most beautiful place on earth, at least more beautiful than all those places I've seen so far. Why? Go here and read the story, and then come back to enjoy the wonderful sights we've seen in Lake Louise this summer. No wonder the place looks like a beehive with all the tourists who come to visit it. It's gorgeous!!!
