After a short drive from Calgary, I found myself in High River, Alberta.
I was so looking forward to a country visit.
I was invited to explore the sights and sounds of the farm yard.
Only to find myself confronted by the strangest of creatures....something I had never seen before.
He seemed like a nice enough fellow....but not much on conversation. He said his namewas "Bandit"...something to do with the mask he seemed to wear.
These folks are much more like what I am accustomed to.
Very nice folks...easy to talk to and full of stories about humans. Apparently humans live here as well. They take care of my new friends and I think I could get to like it here!
Moving on from my new sheep friends, I found these creatures.
They sure are big!
....and they have a peculiar odour------yeck!!!
I stayed on my side of the fence. Something that big and odourous could not be good for me.
After the "stinkies" I was taken to town to see the sights.
My new human friend strapped me into something called a seatbelt in a very noisey form of transportation. He said it was a diesel.
In the town of High River he took me to see a very large cowboy. Apparently this was a statue of a pioneer from the area. He was known to have killed wolves in a great fight.
I couldn't imagine what wolves were....but figured he was big enough to take care of himself.
My human said he would take me to see
some wolves.
I asked for a closer picture...to show you the detail of the wolves.
Lucky for me they are made of wood!!!!
After that we returned to the farmhouse.
I very much enjoyed the sights
and sounds....all new to me, but I must confess this warm blanket, soft couch, and my newest friend 'Tri', are much more to my liking.
No other creatures will mess with me with Tri at my side, so I thought I could have a good nap.
This was a great day!
Bye from High River.
Later,
Zoe"
