Thank you Carol for sending these personal memories, they are so very precious. Love the hand coloured photo of the Three Sisters. Those are 3 very beautiful women. My husband Jacques won a helicopter trip for two through and around the 3 Sisters. Will never forget that day with the mountains so close you felt you could reach out ad touch them.

I love the thought that every family in Canmore had this photograph and that you even learned the elements involved in the hand-colouring. When we first came to Banff in the early 60's , Canmore still had vestiges of the old mining town it had once been. We are so lucky to live among so much beauty.

This a glorious piece. An amalgam of personal history with natural history and I love that you talk about learning to walk, the real learning to walk but also the metaphor of being out in the world untethered.
