Happy. Happy. Spring. Spring.


Did you miss me?


I hope you did.  I've been busy.


There was this little vacation.

It was great.  I had good company. 


There was a  trail race in Sisters, Oregon and some time spent with friends.


There were new trails in Hood River and in the Yakima Canyon.


It was all so beautiful. 


And impressive.


And new and exciting.


I love to visit new trails and new places.


It was Spring in Oregon.


When I arrived home, it was Spring in Banff.


The sun came out.


We went outside.


And we celebrated.


The un-official arrival, of Spring.


I love to go on holidays.


But I sure do love coming home.













The photos tell 2 different stories of my Easter Weekend.  The first run, was in Invermere, B.C. where spring has definitely arrived.  The second run, was on the snowmobile trail that travels to Skoki Lodge in Lake Louise, Alberta.  Believe it or not, it's spring in the rockies!  

Happy-happy, it's Spring-spring.
Wishing you some fun in the spring sun...

I love spring too - such a hopeful time!

Loved the pics of you guys in shorts on the snow - seems such a juxtaposition but it gets hot!

Glad you had a good hol.

Thanks Carolyn! It's good to be missed. Is it already your debut for the season? Shiiiit! Must be springtime. ;)

Sue! Don't tease me like that. :) It certainly sounds like a helluva' adventure and a lot more challenging that your standard Grand Canyon trails. Go Davy!
