Mountains and Marshes --Happy Birthday Canada

It's July 1st and that means it's Canada's birthday. If you're curious, but too polite to ask her age, she's 141 today.

Here's a view of a magnificent mountain scene. It's looking west on the David Thompson Highway from Abraham Lake.



This is a buckbean in flower and reflected in the wetland on the shore of Twin Lakes.


Another view of the buckbean because I really like this picture.


Canada is known for its mountains and the unspoiled beauty of nature.
This is why.

Happy Canada Day.

Happy Birthday, Eh!

Canada turns 140 today.




The blue Canadian Rockies are in front of me and the tiger lilies are in full bloom. What more does one need?
