.....week before last we spent a few days in the Banff - Lake Louise area and of course went to see Otis's cousins. The old folks had put on a few pounds (more like a few ounces) and didn't mind me taken a few snaps.
They also told us that junior was building a new house and we should go see him and we did. When we called him he came out but was at first pretty annoid but after a while even posed with some building material.
As we were leaving he mentioned that one of his brothers had gone bad and was living on the wrong side of town, well we went o see him anyway but yeah it was pretty bad and he did nothing but complain about being hard done by.
On the way home we met a pretty young maiden and another old timer that was just happy to be there and talk about the good old times.
For those who don't know these little critters,(Columbian Ground Squirrels) they are rather small. My guess would be that the average size is about 8" and they probably weigh on average no more than a pound.
Comments are always welcome and appreciated.
