Bow River walks

As we headed up the Bow River, it was a beautiful sunny day -5 C. Along the way a memorial bench to sit and contemplate ...

The cutest little springer spaniel was eager to pose.

An old railroad bridge has been converted to join the walking trails.

On the second morning, we walk downstream. Ice clings to the shallow areas along the shore.

At night ice freezes and then thaws as the day goes on.

Little bunnies hop in and out of the bushes in town and country.

Nature's paintbrush works its magic.

Near the end of our walk, a farm had a small herd of horses.

This is my first photo of the sun creating a halo like a rainbow, reflecting off the ice crystals. It is called a Sun Dog and often indicates a change in the weather.

Blue shadows fall on the snow as the sun falls behind the mountains. Nature carves through the ice - showing the current flowing beneath.

Lavender Sunsets come early in the mountains.
