Downtown Jasper




Jasper and Banff are filled with campers, most of them rentals. These campers are not towing cars to use for touring so you see these RVs everywhere, crowding roadside viewpoints, in parking lots, doing odd things on the roads. (This pic was very early in the morning.)

The gentleman with the town’s mascot is Bruce. Bruce and Enid married after a week and lived on their boat in Hawaii for 10 years. Bruce has a masters in Geophysics and taught later at CSU, and Enid was a landscape architect. Bruce’s hearing worsened and he had to retire, but he can still understand some if directly facing the speaker. Bruce and Enid are co-leaders of our caravan, along with Gary and his mom Bert.

We believe on our last visit to Jasper maybe thirteen years ago our boys posed against the same mascot. We shall have to review our pictures.
