A few postings ago we spent two years in northern Saskatchewan and one of the great things about that time was growing our family. We spent lots of evenings with Dan, and later Tiffany, and so when we got word that their little girl had arrived, we just had to go.
It was a long drive and I think Copper might even have been excited to see us.
Dan made a great dinner and Tiffany and I enjoyed watching the guys clean up after.
Little Adelaide is a beautiful little baby and it was worth the long, prairie drive to meet her.
The next morning, we drove back through Saskatchewan and 7 hours later, we arrived back home where the mountains were waiting for us. The next morning, we walked to church and stopped to check out the cars along main street. After church, we decided to go on a hike that I hadn't researched to much about.
The hike began more like a walk on a good road. It gradually went up, up and up. The road narrowed to a path.
Our wildlife consisted of a deer and a skunk.
The flowers along the way were also pretty spectacular and kind of helped with the continual climb.
As we kept going, looking for the lake we crossed lots of mountain streams and even had to walk through snow. There were waterfalls everywhere.
At one point, after hoping the lake will appear around a number of corners, I decided to take a break. Ron went on to try and get the picture.

After 32,000 plus steps and over 20 kilometers of walking, my feet, knees, legs and back needed a huge rest.
