Shovelstoke

The cozy cabin last night.
It snowed another 30cm over night after this.

Through German Eyes

My German cousin, Catharina, came to visit a couple of weekends ago so I played tour guide around Revelstoke. She left some pictures on my computer, so here they are.

Yuko, myself and Catharina.

Yuko just moved to Revelstoke from Japan, so she was keen to play tourist with us. That's a warm loaf of Modern bread in my hands. My cousin fell in love with Modern bread.

She took a lot of pictures of the snowy highway while we drove.

We went to check out the wolves that live just outside of Golden. It's an educational centre and most of their wolves were puppies born in zoos that can't go back into the wild. The human owners are the alpha male and female and they take them on off-leash hikes and skis. It was interesting, but absolutely no comparison to getting even a fleeting glimpse of one of these animals in the wild. Something about the chainlink fence I think.

It think this farm that was covered in broken equipment (spare parts) was the highlight of this road trip for my cousin.

and here's the farmer

Snowflakes on the car handle.
Not too surprisingly, the macro pic is mine.
