Wow, nothing sounds sweeter than ice being being cut with skates on an #odr . Working on inside C cuts. I always tell PE athletes to stay low, enjoy the ride and end their C cuts with their shoulders parallel with the side boards. Takes balance, coordination and a strong core.
Last couple of days of #ODR before the warm weather hits. Doing a little power ice clean with the shovel. #timelapse @alberta_parks
Old log farm house near elkwater lake...I like how at some point they strapped and planked over top of the logs, for better insulation and wind protection I'm guessing? . . #abandonedplaces #abandoned_world #abandonment_beauty #raw_abandoned #backroad_visions #renagade_abandoned #sunset #farmhouse #farmlife #loghouse #architecture #snowdrift #prairieview #travelalberta #elkwater #yellowsky #fujifilmxt20 #fujifilmxt20 #fuji35mmf2 #hdrlovers #sunrise_sunsets_aroundworld #sunrise_and_sunsets #renegade_rural
This weekend was one for the books so many memories and hilarious moments where had. Thank goodness I turned the camera off right before, I had a two feet in the air wipe out haha.

Prairie Backroads . Going for a short little roadtrip out of Banff today. Makes me remember all the wonderful evenings of wandering prairie backroads to watch the sunsets.

I am so in love with this world.... #winterwonderland #lovetheoutdoors #hikingadventures #elkwater
It’s @heathertak7 birthday so we’re celebrating @campcookout delicious as always.
"Eagles Nest Ranch is my happy place. My healing place. It is where my heartstrings get tuned and my imagination station gets recharged. Whether I come to ENR for a retreat, spring clean-up, or as teacher and speaker, I leave with my heart full. There is something about the atmosphere that draws me closer to Abba, God our Father. He never changes...but I do. I come away stronger, physically, emotionally and spiritually." - Lori #myENRstory
Winter Love.... #elkwater #horseshoehikes # ilovewinter #getoutthere
Love when two people can have so much fun together in the snow and while it’s freezing cold...Happy March 1st ❤️
