Day 140/365

This is MacGregor Lake, south east of Calgary, just past Mossleigh.  It's a huge lake.  Very big.  Man made, apparently, because it's been damned at one end.  It's quite pretty, very busy with campers and boaters and water skiers and jetskis, etc.  Fishermen, too.  (Okay, fisherwomen, too, to be fair to everyone.  And fisherchildren.  Have I covered everybody?!?!)  We stopped at the north end of the lake first (not this picture), and the smell of the wild flowers around was so beautiful.  I could have stayed there all day, just smelling the flowers.  Then we drove to the south end of the lake, some 20 or 25 km further.  That's where this picture was taken.  If you look really closely, the white dot in the center of the picture is a pelican.  A pelican!  Just sitting there!  It was incredible!  Then a boat came roaring past, scaring him, and he took flight and flew almost over our heads.  It was quite the sight!
