Dragons out West - Fav Photos 2024

the Dragon's Adventure Out West

In addition to taking seven dolls along to finish photographing the story from twelve years ago, I also took along my family of dragons. I thought it would be nice to have some subjects to just take some fun photos with.

Winston and Saphira first wanted to explore Waterton Lakes National Park....

They spotted the Prince of Wales Hotel in the distance....

...and watched a grizzly scamper away....

Then they headed up to Crowsnest Pass, and the site of the great Frank landslide...

..where the entire side of a mountain had come rumbling down a hundred years ago.

The road and rail line had been cleared long ago, after all Crowsnest Pass is just one of only three passes through the Canadian Rockies. But the debris field still looked as fresh as if it had just happened yesterday....

Then the dragons headed north to Calgary, where they took the kids out to see Ghost Lake...

Pacific Rim

They finally reached one of our favourite places on the west coast of Vancouver Island, Pacific Rim National Park....

Winston found a new friend there; Byuri, a little native girl....

Together they sat watching the waves as the tide started to roll back in....

Hiking Through the Rainforest

Winston, Saphira, and their kids were hiking through the dark rainforest...

When who should they come across, than their new little friend...

"It's nice to see you again."

In the Rainforest

June 22nd was National Rainforest Day, and Byuri and two of her little dragon friends were exploring the giant old growth trees in the Cathedral Grove rainforest on Vancouver Island....
