LOL...!!! I'm so SORRY that Nick doesn't like Jasper, Alberta. LOL...............
Yay that Ted's back home now. I'm sure that perks up your spirits a bit!
Can't write much more. I have to go PACK MY BAGS, and head off to JASPER, ALBERTA! I was afraid that Nick was going to come right through that camera and grab me.
Thanks for video. It cracked me up.

Years ago on a trip that Ted and I made out west, we stopped for a while in Jasper. I'd tell my sons about it when they were little and amused them to no end. Here's the story:
Ted and I had lunch one day in a little log cabin restaurant off the main highway in Jasper National Park. After lunch we stood outside admiring the ice fields and along came a malamute ( I thought). Ted had his camera in hand. I bent over and talked baby-poochie talk to the "malamute" and it came right over to me, put his head down and I gave it a lovey-up ear scratch. Ted caught it on camera. The four legged friend stayed right beside me for quite a while when out came one of the cooks for a smoke. He waved his arms and hollered, scaring away my new friend. The cook told us we were lucky that WOLF didn't sample us for his appetiser.
We have a slide of that moment somewhere in the house. If I can find it, I'll post it here. I think we have a scanner somewhere...
Kae, you can tell Nick I definitely plan on visiting Jasper! I plan on making a trip next year to see my friend in Red Deer, Alberta, and she's promised to take me to Jasper, which is about 5 hours from her. Can't wait now!
