Meryl Streep as Elizabeth Zimmermann?

I just came back from the movies after seeing Meryl Streep play the part of Julia Child in Julie & Julia... ...and I couldn't help thinking - if they ever make a movie about EZ, who better to play her part?

The movie was a delight. I feel like taking cooking lessons!

Beautiful B.C. to Ontario - Trip Highlights

We are back from our road/camping trip across western Canada, having travelled across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and finally back down to southern Ontario. Here are a few of the highlights:



The Terry Fox monument just outside of Thunderbay, Ontario.

"Dreams are made if only people try.

I believe in miracles...

I have to...

Because somewhere the hurting must stop."

~Terry Fox

Owen's dinosaur acquisition, Drumheller, Alberta. Hoodos, in the Alberta badlands...

One huge T-Rex in Drumheller, Alberta. We climbed inside it and were able to stand inside of its mouth!




Mountain goats...

Elk...

The Columbia Ice Fields...We stood on this large glacier which supplies 1/3 of Canada's drinking water. We were able to fill our water bottles and have a very cold drink right there and then.

The picture perfect Lake Louise...

Owen's view from the top of Kicking Horse Pass...

My first bobble head - a stegasaurus found near Dinosaur Provincial Park.

The blanket grows, province by province...

Bobble head #2...a moose!

Good to be home? Sort of, but now for the laundry!
