You can't really go wrong with a clear mountain day and some fresh snow on the mountains. This was also taken from the Southern end of Banff Avenue and across the Bow River. |

Home-sweet-home. From a one bedroomed apartment 'down-town' to a shared house one and a half kilometers further out!! It was the hot tub that swung it. Kent and Bob are two of the six I'm sharing with - they don't seem to be as concerned about the 'for sale' sign as me... |
