What could be a better weekendgetaway than a trip to Canmore, Alberta, and a helicopter tour over the Rockies?  We took the 30 -minute Mount Assiniboine tour with Alpine Helicopters in Canmore.  Here, you see Marvel and Gloria Lakes in the foreground and Aye Mountain, just across the border in British Columbia.  They give you headphones, with microphones to talk during the tour, but we were simply speechless!!

Lake Koocanusa, one of the most absolutely beautiful places to fish and camp in British Columbia. This was the 'morning after' camping on the beach. Fun fact: the FozzyFest music festival is also held on this beach. #FindingtheUniverse
