I’d like to say it’s all skill, but mostly it’s dumb luck and a stubborn determination.

Can’t place the scene. Do you mean the ice lake in the third installment?

It’s so brief a scene that most people might not even notice. We love the obscure stuff.

You folks make these so interesting. We spent some time near Bentley and met some people at a church pancake breakfast who told us about a place nearby called Lockhart (my last name). All that’s there then was a community hall that used to be the school we think. There was nothing else around it at all. Need to go back the next time we are in Calgary visiting our son.
