Hard Luck Canyon
20 kilometres south of Whitecourt, Alberta is a hidden gem for picnickers, walkers, and those who like to play in creeks. Hardluck Canyon is an unexpected beauty spot just a short walk from the parking lot.
The view from the top is beautiful (in the picture you can’t see the waterfall you cross over). The tree and cliffs are too big to fit in the camera’s view but the framing of the scene is perfect. Steep stairs will take you down to the creek for a splash in the swimming hole and a better view of the waterfall. There is also some interesting art carved into the soft rock:
Not that I recommend scratching up a beautiful natural area, but is nice to see that some people received inspiration enough to move beyond “I wuz here”, “T + L” or other short words requiring limited effort and spelling ability.
Thank You Cake
We wanted to send a thank you to the staff at our hospital who took such excellent care of Grandma and of the family. One of the many talents Grandma passed down is her cake decorating skill, so we decided a big thank you cake was a good idea. Judy and I made the flowers while J.K. dedicatedly scrubbed dishes and prepared icing bags, also putting centres in all the daisies. Then Judy baked the cake and made all the final arrangements on top.
We thank the entire staff very much.
