Canadian Rockies
​September 2022

​​   I had been to the Canadian Rockies before, but they deserved another viewing.  Plus, I wanted better photos.  However, the best camera in the world could not cut through the thick smoke from the numerous forest fires in the area.  I visited five national parks in Alberta and British Columbia.  On my way home I also visited Glacier National Park in Montana and Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota.

No, that is not a fire, just the setting sun.

Brrrr!

​Epilogue

   The glaciers are melting--and fast.  So, go see them in the Canadian parks as well as in our own Glacier National Park in Montana.  But even without ice and snow, all the seven parks I visited are very spectacular.

   Next up, my six-week trip from Tennessee to Arizona, plus Utah and Colorado, including ten national parks and lots of other neat places, accompanied by my Brazilian friend.
