You may have noticed my Blog is in a state of … kerfuffle.
CHANGE.
After several years I’ve finally decided to upgrade things. So I asked my Son-in-Law Ray,
who happens to be a champion Blog and Website designer, to help me out.

I’ve given Ray full reign to do whatever he thinks will work: Therefore things will be in a state of upheaval ’round here for a bit. But Fear not! It will all come together … shortly?
Charles Bronson right?
But Charles Bronson died in 2003. Didn’t he?
‘Fraid so.
This guy is Robert “Bronzi”.
Who just happens to look exactly like Charles Bronson! (below).
And they’ve been exploiting this likeness for a while now.
Most recently in this Western:
Here’s the Trailer/Preview:
Ratings weren’t favorable.“2.7” outta 10! Bang! Yor ‘one shot’ dead.
Even Chuck’s ghost couldn’t save this thing.
But Bronzi isn’t just some ‘one trick cowpoke’
trying to ride Bronson’s pony.

Let’s just hope this doesn’t start a trend of ‘look alike’ Actors mimicing other Cowboys.

Just in case you thought I snitched this photo of Spirit Island at Jasper off the Net … I didn’t. That’s mine. I could easily have done that though – many great shots of this famous scene. But I took this with my Sony DSC-HX80. A nice little camera – but not Pro level. And if I really knew how to operate that thing the photo would likely have been better. Yet it’s almost impossible to take a lousy pic up there.
I was hoping to get a nice reflection shot, but there was too much wind and rain. Still nice. We’ll be posting some more soon. Rose took a number of great shots.
Below isPeter Gales‘ famous photo of Spirit Island “Maligne Lake“.
Peter Gales‘ image of Spirit Island hung in Kodak’s Colorama showcase in New York City’s Grand Central Terminal in August and September of 1960.
This certainly helped to make Jasper famous.
“The island is a spiritual place for the Stoney Nakoda First Nation, who believe mountains are physical representations of their ancestors. The fact that Spirit Island is surrounded on three sides by the same mountain range is very rare and makes it particularly significant to the Stoney.” – https://www.banffjaspercollection.com/attractions/maligne-lake-cruise/stories/8-amazing-facts-about-spirit-island/

Hmmmm … Tinkering with your Blog Settings is like trying to tame a rattlesnake. DOWN BOY!
After fooling with the Settings I started to get emails every time I edited or worked on a Post. I wondered if those same emails weren’t being sent out to you all too??? That wouldn’t be a good thing.
So I fixed it.
If you were getting any of those emails I apologize.
Anyhow I’m back from Jasper National Park. My week there far exceeded what I expected. Wonderful. I’ll be posting some stuff right away.
