This lone ewe or yearling ram seemed to sense that this particular spot was a relatively convenient place to hang out. It’s as if it was looking back compelling me to pay attention to the road signage.

The road gang lined up on a Sunday afternoon. The only day they seem to be taking off now.

Here's a yard display of a historic gas station.
They probably had attendants that pumped the gas for you. No self serve.

Check out the price of a gallon of gas: 29 cents per gallon!!
Works for me, fill er up!

I never owned a 3000 but I had its little brother the Sprite ( which I loved ) .

They don’t get much more iconic than that, especially in British Racing Green.

That is too loud, which reminds me of the other reason I don't go to Hockey and Football games anymore. They are just too damn loud nowadays.

I had a BRG '63 Sprite, non bug eye but side curtains and wire wheels, as my first car in 1970 drove off right away in it after getting my license. $500. A guy in town had a light blue 3000 that I lusted after though! I wanted to buy it but couldn't afford it when it came up for sale for $1500 in '72. Ended up with a '67 BRG MGB that I got for a grand after the gear box blew in the Sprite.

Taking in the eye catching view along the Kananaskis Trail in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park.

I came home after a short ride in the hot afternoon sun and spotted this muley buck bedded down in a shady spot across the street. All of the neighbors were oblivious of the creature’s presence and I thought that I would just leave him be as he might appreciate the solitude.

He is growing into a good "Shooter" buck, Thank you, PD

Was feeling a bit under the weather (literally) so I went for a solitary ride along the Freedom Road near the town of Joffre, AB. Amazing what a bit fresh air can do for the body and mind.

Bright yellow canola fields as far as the eye can see.

A few picks from the last week:

I always like to see these, wherever I go. On Nose Hill in Calgary, just above the Calgary Winter Club.

From the Weaselhead in SW Calgary. Busy guys are unfortunately undermining the shore to the right, and a bike path there is getting dangerously eroded.
I don't have a pic of that.

Me, not too far from there.

One of my previous postings described a seasonal pond on Nose Hill that would be a "Doggy Play Area" on the weekend.
Voila:

And finally, some of the terrain I am fortunate to have nearby.
