I am of to Jasper for the day.

There is lighting occurring out side right now and I am really, i mean, really resisting the urge to run to the car with my camera, and drive for three quarters of an hour to find some spot to take photos of it all. The only reason I am resisting such a great photo opportunity is I am off to Jasper for the day in about 5 hours of so. Mike and I are leaving at 4AM for the day to see what we can see. We will hit the Maligne Valley area, Pyramid Lake, and the Jasper Gondola for sure, but after that if we have time left we will for sure take a gander around at the other great sites to be seen in jasper. But I started thinking to myself about the last day trip that I did to jasper for Work. I say to my self
“Self, did you ever really look though the pictures that you took while you were in jasper?” and self replies with
“Mmmmmm…. Well… Ummm…. I ahhh… Well… Well no not really.”
“Oh really”, self says “perhaps one should really take a gander at such?”
“yes that would be a grand idea!”
And there was a bit more mediocre & pointless dialogue and such the most of which is all far too triveal & pointless to deliver here. Instead, I will let the photos do most of the talking.

Some of you may think that you recognize this photo from a past shot of mine that I posted on the 21 of Feb. however it is just the same mountain in a different season. See I have to say that I enjoy the Feb shot much more then this but this is worthy of a journal post.

I will have many other shots from that and tomorrows trip up soon (I really mean it) however I really should finish the stuff that I have to do before tomorrow and try to get to bed, even though I am usually going to sleep about 4 instead of getting up then :)
