Carburn Park and around town … Part 1

It’s Rose’s Garden.
Gardening is a Rose’s passion – so I don’t interfere.
I only ask her to plant Poppys and Nasturtiums.
Poppys is easy – they pop up by themselves.
Nasturtiums are Annuals though and you gotta plant ’em.

Below:
some of Rose’s Poppys in bright sunlight.

Mini Libraries are another thing we like.

We put books in and take ‘me out.
I look for Louis L’Amour Westerns and the Classics like
The Three Musketeers and Gulliver’s Travels
especially if they are illustrated.

Carburn Park

Rose and I go out somewhere pretty well every day.
Just to get some exercise.
Carburn Park is one of our favorite places to go here in Calgary.

It’s big – has nice pathways, flowers, wildlife,
and lots of water.

Gooslings Ahoy!

A small flotilla …

… time for a break …

The Bow River is running high right now.
It’s still ‘run off’ in the nearby Rocky Mountains.

Alberta Roses … our Provincial Flower.

A nice day for a short hike.

Next …
The Ol’ Water Hole !
