my weekend, how about yours?
Jun. 29th, 2004 01:17 amOn Saturday, I did a commando tour of Banff and Lake Louise, before heading back to Calgary to catch the red-eye home.
On Sunday, I went riding in the Harold Parker State Forest. It was a fabulously beautiful afternoon, and saw exactly 0 other horses, 0 bikes, 2 hikers, and 2 families having a barbequeue on the beach. Other than that, I had the entire 3000+ acres to myself. Freaky.
