Back to cherries. We have a lot of cherries. After work, Kelly headed out to run a couple of errands in town. This included trying to find some decent balsamic vinegar, more difficult than you might think. 4 stores later, she came home with a plan… a Flathead cherry, balsamic reduction with shallots and pine nuts over grilled chicken breasts… wow, was that yummy!

We spent the rest of the evening fishing some of the spots that Paul found yesterday. The truth of the matter is the Swan River valley was so pretty Kelly had to see it for herself. Ranger swam to exhaustion in the river downstream from the fishing action. Paul is having fun trying to fly fish but alas with no luck.

We knocked out a rough plan for our week in Banff / Jasper. We decided that given the amount of work Kelly had to get done and the fact that we didn’t want to have to find a campsite on a Friday night after driving into Canada we’d wait to leave here until Saturday morning.
