Summers here in Alberta are really short. So we need to take every opportunity to spend time outdoors.
Close to Devon, which is small town SW of Edmonton you can find nice little place to relax on warm summer Sunday.
I was impressed the most by Japanese garden which was planted by real Japanese princess as you can see on this photo.
We enjoy those nice and calm colours.
I don't know names of those two beauties, but they look really amazing.
It's obvious that they didn't plant those on purpose, but they fit in perfectly.
I'm sure that they don't need introduction and they serve also as a proof that photos were taken in Canada.
Have you ever see something like this?
And of course for the end: my favourite of the day.
I hope you enjoyed the nature. At least on photos.
Have a great one, my steemit friends.
Great pics man, I was waiting for your next post. I have been building up my power because of you. You gave me a big tip once for a comment and I need to thank you for it. I was honestly thinking about leaving steemit until you up voted my comment. Love your work cant wait to see more.

Glad to hear that. I'm grinding here for almost one year. With 50000 steem power my vote was $0.02. It was so frustrated at times. Real dark ages. You're lucky now. Tons of new people every day and look at the price of steem. It was 7 cents for steem, just few months ago. Keep grinding, my friend and one year from now you'll be good.

Oh yes. Your summer is best for us.
So, in January, your average (normal) -4.6°C (coldest)-7.9°C . whereas, January is the coldest month in Bangladesh, when the average temperature for most of the country is about 10°C. So Welcome to #Bangladesh and our @schoolforsdg4 in January :)

I don't know where you find information about temperatures. This winter we had couple of days - 3o, usually it stays between -15 to -25. But we see also -38. I mean in Celsius, of course. You don't need a freezer, he,he.

Wow!! Nice pics!! We have kind of the same thing here in Minnesota, but probably a little bit milder. The winters certainly are a different creature though!! When it gets so cold, every house and building turns into a little island of heat that requires preparation and determine to travel back and forth between.

I've been here before, it is such a beautiful place. The river valley in the Devon area is very Beautiful as well, especially during the fall when the leaves have turned.

Seems like you had a great day out, nice! I like watching the trails caused by ducks when they swim over water covered in veg matter; there's a slow canal where I live and you can pretty much see what the 'duck points of interest' are just by looking at the tracks they create.
