Sunday hike

I just had to post this picture - I took it yesterday before church. Ainsley is smiling just the perfect little smile :)


Yesterday we went for a 6 kilometer hike. We drove to Meadow Lake Provincial Park, about 40 minutes away and hiked around a lake and up to a lookout tower. It was so remote that we didn't see a single other human, or car for that matter. BUT, we did see several deer on our drive - about 8 crossed in front of us! We tried to get some pictures but didn't have the camera ready most times. We also saw a snowy owl in a tree - but he flew away before we could snap a picture. We were also on the lookout for a bear ... didn't see any of those ; )

This is one of the deer that we were able to get a picture of ... he jumped when my flash went off.


Ainsley was comfortable in her carrier and spent most of the time chewing her fingers.


The tower gave a really good view of two lakes - the larger Pierce Lake, and tiny little Lake Humphrey. We kinda wish we had done this hike a week or so ago since all the leaves are gone now!





Cold Lake is great for hiking and outdoorsy stuff, we are so close to countless trails and lakes - we will definitely miss that when we have to move back to a bigger city one day.

Team PM & Ainsley
