What Saturdays Are For

So it’s a Saturday. What shall I do?
Not many more days here left I think.
So I think I shall see the sights one last time

Shall do the circle loop, heading west, let see..
From Lake Louise, AB
Golden, BC
Radium Hot Springs, BC,
Invermere on The Lake, BC
And back to Lake Louise, AB

And DANG! The Trans Canada to Golden from LL is closed about 16km from Golden!!!
So near yet so far. There’s been a landslide and the road’s not passable.
So around I turn, back east, Golden will have to wait for another day.

And to Inveremere I head.
It’s a quaint little town on the shores of Lake Winderemere.

At a layover on the road to Invermere from Radium, I spotted this Daisy, poking up from the ground, how symbolic

Inveremere has the only beach around for miles, fresh water though.

Main street is kinda nice
