A friend asked me to post some of my favorite pictures from the trip.  It was hard picking from the 4,000 pictures to make the blog to begin with.  It was even harder to pick my favorites from the blog, but here they are in order of the trip…

Cody’s favorite van activity, driving.

The Great River Road Museum - Eagle’s Nest

Brooke asked, “Do I get to learn new things everyday Momma?”

Taken from inside an abandonded church in Dorothy. Our first time sleeping in a church.

How many people can say they have slept in one of these?

Meeting other people out on extraordinary journeys.

Brooke in the Calgary Tower spotting our next adventure.

Brooke and Cody’s first ride on a ski lift and mine with no snow.

Moo Bear

From a distance it really did look like a black bear… :-)

Near our campsite the first time in Canmore.

Tree giving birth. A path off of a highway stop. You never know where the next adventure is hiding.

Lake Louise. The first time. No rain.

Columbia Ice Field. One tough hike and she did it.

Whistler Mountain - Jasper

One of the many spray parks in 50-60 degree temps.

Liard Hot Springs in the rain. My favorite rainy day.

Brooke ringing the bell on the SS Klondike. She was on an insatiable quest for steamboats.

Cody’s 1st birthday celebration in the Yukon.

Meeting up with Scott’s cousin and family in Fairbanks.

Cody’s eyes are as bright as the midnight sun at 9:10 pm.

Brooke and Scott dancing in a freezing creek near Fairbanks.
