Today we attempted to go snowshoeing with R. DH has a cold and so was not up for a big hike, so we just went out to Hogarth Lakes in Kananaskis Country and put R in his new toboggan and walked up one way and down the other. It was a little snowy and blowing, so we didn't do as much as we would of once we got going.
Then we went to Canmore and had some bagels at Rocky Mountain Bagel Company. We normally visit the Rocky Mountain Soap store and of course, Black Rock Fudge & Gifts. (I love fudge!) I used to live in Canmore - the summers when I was 19 and 20 as a housekeeper at Green Gables Inn - and loved living there. At the time, it was a lot smaller than it is now and a less commercialized. I would highly recommend visiting there. Oh, my absolute favorite coffee shop is right across from the Green Gables called Beamer's Coffee Bar - it was there that I learned to like coffee - in the form of a mochaccino! :) Today though, DH was feeling so badly that we came home after the bagels.
R was as good as gold, as usual. He is quite the little traveller, enjoying riding in the car and entertaining himself in the mirror that we have attached behind my seat. He also enjoyed playing with the torch that we had in the car (flashlight for North Americans) that we got from the company that we rented our caravan from last year when we were in Australia.
Anyways, here are some pictures from our jaunt for you to enjoy.

Oh how I long to see snow this winter! It looks so nice in your pictures. It looks like you had a great time.
All we have here in Windsor is rain all the time, I feel like I should be living in BC.
The nice part about Calgary is that we have no snow right now - Chinooks galore this winter - but Kananaskis... well, the pictures speak for themselves!
