Columbia Icefields/Icefields Parkway, Bow Lake, celebratory drink & vegan poutine at Nourish. Canmore Canada Day Parade! Happy Canada Day! Town of Banff. Very cute but busy and touristy. Still very beautiful, though. Banff Sunshine Village gondola and hike. Photos don't do it justice about just how beautiful it is. Also All Dressed chips (because Canada!) & a small quick sketch I did while we were out there. Canmore. It's beautiful here. Calgary -- Inglewood Bird Sanctuary, Vegan Street; Canmore -- Three Sisters, Stoneridge Mountain Resort I'm away from my record collection but there's Spotify. Is this a great painting of a tree? No. Do I really like it? Yes https://www.instagram.com/p/DK6JzQXMvJ4/
