8-19-09: Jasper, Alberta

8-19-09: During our drive today, we saw a young coyote alongside the road. We made a detour to visit Jasper Nat'l Park in Alberta. We saw some female mountain sheep with their young; they stopped traffic since they were in the road. As we passed the town of Jasper, there was a small group of tourist fools standing 15 ft from a bull elk grazing on grass ( so much for keeping your distance from wildlife).

We camped at Whistlers Campground in the park.

  2. Boy, this blof thing is really cool. Reminds me of the commercial where the dad is stitting in on the patio recliner texting (or twitting, twitter, ???) "I'm on the patio sittind down" and the son tells him, "Dad, I'm right here, I know you are on the patio".
    Keep up the good work.
