Aug. 9 - Lake Minnewanka and Two Jack Lake

After going to McDonalds for coffee and their free wifi, we went to Lake Minnewanka. We were here last year at about the same time. I think we arrived one day earlier this year. The dragon boat races will be held at Lake Minnewanka this Sat. They have free bus rides from the Brewster Tours building to Lake Minnewanka and back. The problem is finding a parking space at or near the Brewster building.




We enjoyed seeing beautiful Lake Minnewanka and Two Jack Lake. At the Two Jack Lake picnic area, we saw a Big Horn Sheep with baby. Down the road, we saw a black bear cub. I got some good photos of it. It was a treat to see! Because the threat of rain is 50% tomorrow and 60% Thursday, we are thinking it may be Friday before we take the computers to get wifi. We are studying the area map to see where we want to go and what we want to do. I know we want to go to the Vermillion Lakes and to Lake Louise. We are going to check to see if their library has wifi available. That would be the best – not feeling like you have to purchase anything to use it!

We have enjoyed talking to Karsyn and Brice while we have been here. Last year, we did not use our phone here at all. We are glad Brice is doing well, even though his chin and tooth they bonded to the bone is still sore. He is not happy that that one tooth is crooked. He said he may even tell the oral surgeon to take it out and go with the original plan of bonding a tooth to one of the ones that will go on the implant post. He went back to work this past Monday.
