Last Day in Crowsnest Pass

On Sunday the 25th Margarit and I packed up and checked out of the hotel in Coleman.  We met Chris and Connie for breakfast, and then had just a little time to do some exploring.  I took Margarit down to the old historic part of Coleman so that she could check out a bunch of the old buildings.  Chris and Connie joined us, and took a few photos there themselves.  After that we said our goodbyes and parted ways.  Chris and Connie were returning to Calgary, and sort of nursing their car along as it was having clutch issues.
I took Margarit to a few more places before we hit the road for the much longer drive back to Edmonton.  We stopped at Frank Slide, the Greenhill Mine, and Bellevue.  These were all places that I had explored and photographed in the past, but Margarit had never spent any time here before.  She has seen prints that I and my friends produced for our Coal in Alberta gallery exhibition, and recognized many of them as we did a quick tour.
By mid afternoon we had run out of time and had to get serious about getting back home.  We arrived back in Edmonton around 8:00PM and were greeted by the girls and Hank the dog.
