Back in the USA and headed to Utah

We really enjoyed Canada, but we are glad to be back in the USA, for one thing it is cheaper living here even with the favorable US/Canada exchange rate.  We have been in Washington, Oregon, and now Idaho for a few weeks before heading to Utah (yes I know it is August coming up).  We definitely have found summer now that we are in Idaho.

Canadian Rockies (we made it)

We made it into Canada!  The border crossing was uneventful, although Zoe took two shots for the team and they didn't even ask to see anything pet related.  

Wow, it sure is beautiful here.  We visited Radium Hot Springs, British Columbia for one week and Banff, Alberta for another week.  Our visit by Katie, Kyle, and Geneva (or Neva Neva as Marty calls her) was a highlight of our week in Banff.  The scenery was amazing with massive glaciers and mountains along with wonderfully colored lakes.
