Lake Louise January 8, 2025

The painting project above was done before going to Lake Louise. While in this little piece of paradise, I knew what I wanted to do, what I wanted to see, what I wanted the trip to be and what I hoped I would feel!  This is what it looked like when I recreated the view from my watercolour painting!

After capturing the photograph below, the only thing left to do was clip into the cross country skis, grab the poles then glide away.  The track had been groomed the day prior.  Flurries fell over night.  No one had skied here yet today.  The stars aligned for a terrific track and sweet sights! The sound of my skis sliding along the tracks paired with the feeling of my heart beating was meditative.  The further I went, the more energized I became! From gliding through the open meadow to maneuvering along between the tall trees, I cherished each second at every single spot.  

I received in tenfold what I went looking for today! 

 It was time to take one last look back!

glide away back to my vehicle, drop the poles then clip out of my cross country skis!
