A Hike in the City.....

We spent a few days in the City hanging out with our youngest grand...
It was a beautiful day for a hike...
Wanna come along....
The Alberta Official Flower.. being attended by a bee...
Many different trees....

This Birch tree had its bark peeling off so we got a lesson on the different things Birch Trees are used for....
We had paths thru trees, along the river........
We arrived at a park...
Hmm is this a duck....a goose.... what is your guess??
Whatever.... our grand totally fell in love with it!!

We know for sure this is a mother duck and her ducklings....

Don't know about you...but we had a great hike...in the middle of the city...

Adventures in our Backyard

It has been awhile since I posted on our Backyard....but the other day...when most of the grands were at our house....

Well it brought back memories....memories of the times the whole family was together.... eating...visiting...the grands playing....it seems like so long ago....


The grands have now grown...some are adults...and others almost there ......
but this evening it didn't seem to matter.... a game was decided and the young and old grands were playing...and I got this shot.... of some of the play in our 'Backyard'
