May Long Weekend--"Shoulder Season" Part 3

Dave and I had another wonderful "Shoulder Season" weekend this year: great weather on Saturday gave us a chance to do some yardwork and work on our gardens (although now that it's cooled down at night again, we may have lost a few of those newly planted annuals!). The great weather continued on Sunday, for a hike up "Chinaman's Peak" to get a great clear view over Canmore. We met up with Shandra and Dave and headed to Tunnel Mountain in Banff to camp overnight. Monday was a cooler and rainy/snowy day, but perfect for "Slush Cup" at Sunshine village--the last ski of the season.
Looking forward to another great summer filled with fun visits and travel--we are off to Ontario again in the end of July for a 2 week visit with friends and family.

Looks like you were able to enjoy the best of both worlds - some warm sunshine and the last (?) of the snow for the spring. Great!

Love,
