Tags: The Bird is the Word, The Trashmen https://myfavoritewesterns.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/ghost-riders-in-the-sky-kbdl8s7pz7o.mp3Ghost Riders in the Sky / Craig DuncanGoing to Banff for 3 days. (not my idea). But Banff is quiet right now. (I m told). Cuz of Covid. Nobody is travelling except us Albertans. Had to cancel 2 holidays we had planned previously one to Tofino on Vancouver Island and the other to Newfoundland (which has shuttered itself up tighter than Alcatraz). So it s been a weird year all the way around. After Banff we come back here then head out again to the stomping grounds of my youth out Drumheller way and other places around Central Alberta. There s plenty to see and do around here no need to go to foreign empires. This should be very interesting (for me at least). And it all seems like some kind of closure full circle. Maybe it is. We ll be taking a ton of photos and I ll toss some up on this board. I hope you are all getting by OK with all that has happened  (and we ain t out of the woods yet ) It s going to take longer than we all hoped unless they really do come up with some kind of vaccine? Who knows? Some folks probably think things will then go back to normal . But I don t. This has changed the world. Going forward is the catchphrase of the day. See you there. Share this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)MoreClick to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading... https://myfavoritewesterns.files.wordpress.com/2020/07/take-it-to-the-limit-the-eagles-3.avi-dylhmgb_hce.mp3Take it to the Limit / The EaglesSo Nick, our Guide/Driver, says there s something else he wants to show us close by.Lead on He points to a nearby tree and says: See this tree? “This is John Wayne Tree”. What?! Really!! How so?Nick says that back in 1947 when John Wayne was starring in Angel and the BadmanJohn had posed by this tree for a photo.I now recalled seeing that photo somewhere? but I ve been able to find it since.This did seem seem to be an amazing coincidence though because there s no way Nick could have knownthat I had a blog called My Favorite Westerns where I had extensively featured The Duke.Nick claimed John posed something like this.(Notice how I bear absolutely no resemblance to John Wayne who was without a doubtabout one of the most photogenic Celebrities who ever lived.)But I really had to wonder though at the odds of this??We hadn t planned on taking Jeep Tour at all and these Jeep Tours go to many different locations in the area.Yet here we were.Pretty amazing. https://myfavoritewesterns.files.wordpress.com/2020/07/eagles-take-it-easy-hd-lfenhwno8hw.mp3Take it Easy / The EaglesSedona Jeep Tour 2013I never really did tell the full story of our John Wayne Tree adventure at Sedona back in 2013.My previous posts on this were lousy so I want to fix that.In Sedona my pardner, Rose, won a Jeep Tour prize by getting sucked into a TimeShare presentation. That was the hook. I was quietly kicking Rose for making me endure the TimeShare thing, but we would never have gone on this Jeep Tour otherwise. Life and Fate, however, often have a different idea that they only let us in on when we re right in the middle of it all. Sometimes wonderful things happen. Sometimes not. This turned out to be pretty wonderful. So off we go.When you realize how many Jeep Tours there are here and the many different places they go,you have to realize what an amazing coincidence this event turned out to be.Schnebly Hill RoadA bit of history:Theodore Carleton (T C) Schnebly and his wife SEDONA Arabella Miller Schneblymoved to the Sedona area in 1901.Schnebly Hill Road, of course is named after them and Sedona after her.The Hill road is an adventure in itself.Below you can see one stretch of the road and why they use Jeeps.All six of us were all well strapped in, but we still needed to hold on to our saddlehorns.At one point we saw a family in a minivan coming up the road.You can bet they regretted that.Photo from the Internet. Nick, our driver, was giving us a running commentary on the area as we bumped along.(Can t remember a thing.)Nor was there much chance for taking any pics on the way up.But we did snap a couple.We jostle and jerk our way up to see a viewpoint Nick calls Schnebly Hill Vista… and jump out for a jaunt.Why sure it s right next to Effluence Creek.Never let a beaurocrat name anything.I can assure you that 90% of the people around here call thisSplit Rock Park.Evidently it didn t roll here by itself. But was discarded like a pebble from a passing Glacier.I m told that Split Rock was once part of Mount Edith Cavell in Jasper National Park. That s about 210 miles away.No estimate how long it took to get here or how huge that Glacier musta been.But I m sure you could have beat it in a foot race. You might recall my recent posts on our trip to Jasper National Park where we hiked up to Mount Edith Cavell. I never noticed any rocks missing.I figure Buffalo used to rub themselves on Split Rock before us White folks showed up.And shot them.
