Post Christmas Activities

Last Christmas, Roger and I enjoyed our time at Kananaskis Lodge so much, that we decided to do it again.
The plan was to meet up with my parents and my sister's family at the Lodge to do some snowshoeing and x-country skiing.
Same as last year, my sister's family came down with a last minute "illness" just prior to leaving and had to cancel. I'm starting to think it's just an elaborate ploy on my sister's part to clear Calgary of any family so they can relax in Calgary undisturbed!

There was more snow this year than last, so the x-country skiing was better.  
Roger and I headed out to the Canmore Nordic Centre to do some skate skiing.

Trees heavy with snow.



The following day, we met up with friends from Calgary to do some snowshoeing into Rawson Lake.

Here's our before picture.


Some "during" photos.
Little J' did a nice job at setting the pace.



A couple photos at the Lake.
