Good Morning, Alberta!

High River at Sunrise

I always feel proud when I see the Canadian flag, wherever I am. I feel compelled to tell the people around me, "That's my flag. I'm a Canadian". Yesterday I was a little teary as we crossed the border at Carway and were welcomed by bilingual notices and a large "Welcome to Alberta" sign.

Although I've lived in the US for nearly thirty years, I still follow Canadian news and, especially, politics. Last night I watched the CBC report on tomorrow's Québec election. Looking watching Canadian election returns Tuesday evening. Happy to be in Canada, though I kind of wish I were in  in Montréal on election night.

Today we woke to a another sparkling day, wondering about the thousands of birds we saw in the sky at dawn. I hope I can twist Bob's arm to visit the bird sanctuary in High River.
