Cottage Campfire

Is there anything better than being a kid at the cottage for the summer? Having a few friends gathered round the campfire while you watch the setting sun?

If you are looking for something to do this weekend why not take a drive to Rocky Mountain House for the 4th annual artist Studio Tour. I'll be participating at the studios of glass artist Lisa Head Harbidge. Would love to sit and chat a minute or two. The weather is supposed to be beautiful and the scenery along the way is always guaranteed to please.

Family Of The Forest

One of the interesting things about Bighorn Sheep is that they have fairly small home ranges - at least the ewes do. So once you know a location you can pretty much go there any time and find them. I know of at least 3 different flocks around here - there are probably more. What I don't know is where the rams go in summer. I usually only see the big rams in the fall and winter.

Little Cutie

I don't mind seeing the ewes and lambs in summer though. Especially when they are willing to pose so nicely for the camera! What a cutie, hey?

Hidden Gem

Tomorrow I'll be hanging my work in preparation of the weekend studio tour. Then I'll be right back to start getting ready for the show at the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies at the end of the month. I'm also starting to print the images for the Bilton Centre for Contemporary Art show in August. Then it's holiday time.

Our weekend photo tour was a very welcomed break from all the work this summer. My photography has certainly suffered as a result of all the shows and the preparation needed.
