Today is our 48th anniversary. Sandy wrote this poem:

The trip she referenced took place this past weekend. On Saturday we went to Jasper National Park (five hours west of Edmonton). Sunday we attended church in Hinton, then drove four hours north to Grande Prairie for a zone conference. I did vehicle inspections and a safety presentation on Monday; we then drove back to Edmonton (five hours).

Below are pictures from Jasper.
