Re: Cow Country
The famous "Burmis Tree" near home. My wife took the pic.
The Burmis Tree is a limber pine located in south western Alberta in the community of Burmis, Alberta, along the Crowsnest Highway (Highway 3) and east of municipality of Crowsnest Pass.[1] The tree died in the late 1970s after losing its needles. Limber trees are known to survive harsh conditions and are one of the longest living trees in Alberta. The Burmis tree was estimated to be between 600 and 750 years old.[2] In 1998, it was toppled by wind, however members of local community refused to leave it lying. The tree was stabilized by Alberta Culture, Historic Sites staff using stainless steel rods and brackets.[3] In 2004, vandals cut one of the tree's main branches. Locals fixed it again with glue and a prop pole. The community rallied to have the new Highway 3 built around the tree rather than destroy the heritage symbol it has become.[4] The tree remains as the sole point of interest in the once prosperous town of Burmis.

Yup! She's as good with a camera as you are with a rifle or revolver. You're a pair of sharpshooters. Thanks for sharing her work with us.

Re: Cow Country
Al, we think a lot alike. One of my first thought, fish? Maybe off that little point on the left?
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.
Re: Cow Country
Might be some good Brookies in there. Those Brookies are pretty tasty especially with a cold beer
