something in the mountain air

one night last week as i was walking to the main cabin at storm mountain lodge to get some more firewood, i thought about my blog. i thought about how i want to share some thoughts again on my blog. this is not a promise that i'll be righting here on a regular basis, just that i'll make an effort to.

so my thought(s). it never gets dark at night in toronto. as we all know there is light pollution in the city that casts a dark amber light into the nights sky. on weekends away from toronto, ex. dave's cottage, it's gets pretty dark at night. you can enjoy the stars in the sky and sleep with the curtains draw back. but then there is middle of the rocky mountain, deep in the bow river valley dark. as i stood there looking at orion on the horizon of castle mountain i thought about how wonderful it was to be away from toronto and the busyness and the people ... with my wife.

I love places where it gets dark... and in the winter it can get really quiet too. Awesome.

I hope you had a great trip.
