A Canadian flag and a mountain. Need I say more? OK I will. Allie and I headed to West Bragg Creek to climb Moose Mountain on Canada Day.
Over the last few years, I have made it my own tradition to run/hike a mountain on July 1. There’s nothing I like more than feeling the mountain breeze on my face while I think about all the reasons I am thankful to live in such a welcoming and inclusive country. (Yes we do have a long way to go in some areas (i.e. truth and reconciliation etc) but we are leading the charge on the global scale in so many areas.)
Canada continues to amaze me with its diverse landscapes of deserts, mountains, lakes and oceans. My recent trip to Yellowknife only replenished my heart with continued love for our country.
So on Sunday, I thought – let’s ask everyone we pass to pose for a picture with our Canadian flag. We were prepared for some crazy looks and some straight out “nos” but we knew most people would love to be part of our flag project.
