Oh Canada!

Wheew... We're back!
Angie and I just came home from 9 magical days in Canada. I could talk your ears off about each and every one of those days, but I will try to instead make this our shortest blog post ever and just tell the juicier details in person to those we'll be seeing soon. In a nutshell:

-Drove 2004 miles
-Visited 5 Canadian National Parks
-We took 685 pictures!
-Celebrated Canada Day
-Picked our jaws up off the floor multiple times daily
-Saw deer, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, elk, coyote, fox, black bear, grizzly bear and more
-Hikes, Hot Springs, Ice Fields, Gondola, Canoeing, Glacial Lakes
-Sunshine, wind, rain
-Saw so many new and wonderful places!

It was an amazing trip and we'll never forget it. Anyone who has not visited the Canadian Rockies needs to do so ASAP! Unbelievable!!!

Wow Dan, those pics are stellar. Seriously so cool. One of them is Cameron? right? Waterton National Park?
You and Angie are on next to Lake Louise right? I am SOO jealous. Seriously stunning stuff.
"Up in a meadow in Jasper Alberta two folks and 4 subaru wheels on a long wholesome ride, to see the high country and learn of her people, the way they live there and the way they die, Cold nights in Canada, and icy blue winds, the Dan and the mountains are brothers again....
The Rockies are living THEY NEVER WILL DIE!"

Loves the pics, but want to see more. Bring all 600+ to Utah! Gregg says next time we have to go as far North as you two! (Which means he is planning on a "next time".
By the way, I think I took over 700 photos!

Love Rachel's comment!
That is gorgeous!!--though flat, dry land full of tumble-weeds surely has its charm, too, Rach!

That is a trip that we feel needs to go on our list!
Stunning!
