We didn't step on those blue suede shoes, but we did follow them to some very special places. One of which was the Storm Mountain Lodge, where we stopped for an exquisite lunch on our way back to Calgary. Built by the Canadian Pacific Railroad, the Lodge is made from fire burned pine, which is naturally cured to resist rot and insects. The logs in the buildings shown here are well over 100 years old and still going strong. It was evening by the time we got back to Calgary on Tuesday and we had an early flight back, so Pizza seemed a good bet for dinner. We did our goodbyes the night before, so Jill and I could take ourselves to the airport and just drop the vehicle in a lot, where Terry and Ginnu could pick it up later.
Hey magoo - we even paid a visit to your neck of the woods, since American Airlines routed us from Calgary to Dallas-Fort Worth, before finally taking us home to Wisconsin. Maybe the next reunion should be in Texas, eh?
