The 1-A-Day Project is my self-challenge to post one image to this gallery daily. The images I am sharing are not in any particular order, they are a reflection of the many places we have visited, during many seasons ~ Enjoy!!!!

The Pride of the Park

Bighorn Sheep

Jasper National Park, Alberta

* When you are travelling in Jasper you are almost always guaranteed to see some bighorn sheep. We were fortunate to see this young one as we were travelling east. :))) This was taken in late June which is why they are molting, losing their thick outer coat in patches.

I hear the wind among the trees
Playing the celestial symphonies;
I see the branches downward bent,
Like keys of some great instrument.

Summer Delights

* This is a macro of a flower I had in my garden last summer. Unfortunately, I don`t have the name of this beautiful plant but I think it was a type of Fuschia or Begonia. The vibrant colours make me look forward to summer!!

Bucket

Mackenzie Beach
Near Tofino, Vancouver Island, BC

* Sun's out :) We got a beach day!...
Yesterday my friend Cindy and I recollected driving around singing one of our favorite albums, Tug of War. The first song on the album is called "Bucket", and the lyrics are attached. Although we do not have a sandy beach nearby, we joked about going to build a sand castle, but we are settling on a lunch date today!! So when I came across this image from a trip to Vancouver Island I just had to post it for her. It holds a lot of other subliminal messages... Yesterday I booked a flight to Vancouver, so I will be on a sandy beach a week from now... Today I get to hang out with my bestie... and today Carly Rae Jepsen WILL win a Grammy for Song of the Year. I started listening to Carly Rae in 2007 when she was on Canadian Idol, where she placed third, but I thought she should have won. I loved her from the moment I heard her, with her quirky voice and all her cuteness. I was fortunate to meet her that year and scooped up her first album, in 2008, the day it came out. Look at her now!! It just goes to show you that, with a little perseverance and determination, you CAN do it! It may take years, but if you dream it, you can build it, even if you have a hole in your bucket :)
(For those of you who do not know who Carly Rae Jepsen is, I have three words... Call Me Maybe!)
