Big-horned sheep

(Above: Big-horned sheep we saw by the side of the road on Mt. Norquay.)

Finished watching the mini-series "Pride and Prejudice" (the version with Colin Firth) last night with Cathy after another day of exploring the area. LOVED it. Now I'll have to read the book. I tried when I was in grade school but found it too dull; I suspect the whole unrequited love and relationship aspect will mean more to me now. :-)

One more day in Calgary! Today we're going to visit a town called "Vulcan" just because I'm a nerdgirl and can't help myself.

Anyway, here are a few more pics...

Banff Hotsprings, where we luxuriated in the hot water with a stunning view of the mountains (you can't see in the photo, but steam was rising from the water):

This mule deer was grazing about twenty feet away from the pool area:

One of the lookout points on top of Sulphur Mountain:

Cathy, Gary and I climbed up this hill to the Sulphur Mountain Cosmic Ray Station:

I'm sure Banff residents are used to elk wandering through their downtown, but I sure wasn't. :-)
