Vacation pics



















I always thought Peyto Lake meant "coyote" in some Native language. Actually it's named after some dude named Bob or Joe or Joe-Bob Peyto, and it's pronounced "pee toe". (that's what I get for neglecting to read the tourist signs the first time around...)


The dead tree pic is for Mom. ;)

Your dead tree pic isn't too bad for an amateur.
Are you SURE about that pronunciation? I've been saying "PAY-toe" for 35 yrs now. :(
Nice shot of the "short, stocky guy"!

Poor Richard. ;D
I'm dead sure about pee toe. I read the placard, and that's what it said. I'm totally shocked.

(Richard took the tree picture for you, so I can't take any credit for that.)

These pictures are awesome; Where is this like located? Your states are larger than Europe, and between NY and SF I know very little of your map.
