Tea at Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise

As you may have gathered from my recent posts, I finally completed university! For my 'celebration' I chose to go for high tea at Lake Louise. I had been for tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia so I knew I would enjoy it (see my post about Victoria here). The reason I …

Mount Yamnuska {July 11, 2015}

Historic Old McDougall Church

Sorry I haven't been blogging much the past couple of weeks, but some family matters have come up. I thought I would make a quick post about one of my favourite churches. I was sad to see that the Old McDougall Church was destroyed by a fire, on May 22. It was one of my …
