Snowshoeing Painted Pots in Kootenay National Park June 2, 2019

This was our fourth trip to Canada in two years. We visited British Columbia twice, Montreal, and now Banff. Little did we realize, our tour we booked with Discover Banff would take us back to BC to snowshoe. So technically, we’ve been to BC three times in two years. The day before we had fresh […]

Walter Cushing April 5, 2019

Major Walter Cushing fought with the Filipino-American guerrillas in WWII. I was introduced to him while reading, The Intrepid Guerillas of North Luzon. He kept evading the Japanese by pretending to be a Spanish priest. He was mestizo; half Mexican and half Canadian and could pass for Filipino. His battles against the Japanese were fairly […]

California Aquariums are pretty cool. We haven’t been to that many but we love the Monterey Bay Aquarium and California Academy of Sciences out of the few we’ve seen. When my cousin said that the Aquarium of the Pacific reminds her of the one in Monterey, it went immediately to our must-see list. Vic’s a […]

A Death & A Trip to Long Beach January 10, 2019

My Dad died this summer and I haven’t really felt up for much so I thought I’d take a break from my Banff, Canada posts and start here. I’ve been feeling better since my trip to California to visit my Aunt and cousins. In fact, my cousin, her kid, and my Aunt spent time with […]

Vermilion Lakes August 22, 2018

Vermilion Lakes was the last stop on our photo tour and by now we were getting nippy. I stayed up by the road because I didn’t want to climb down to the lake. I’m clumsy and it was a bit slippery so thats a recipe for disaster. Everyone was safe, I just know myself. The […]
