Loanne and I are business owners and real estate agents. We love to travel and prefer to go to a destination where we can settle in for a few weeks. We love to partake in physical activities such as hiking, biking, tennis, swimming, etc. We also like a vibrant shopping, restaurant and nightlife scene.

We live in Calgary Alberta and from our home we enjoy quick access to the Rocky Mountains, Banff, Lake Louise, and the less known and hidden Rocky Mountain locations that do not include the hordes of tourists. From our house to the mountains is an easy and scenic 45 minute drive into Kananaskis where an abundant variety of natural trails are available for hiking and mountain biking or simply picnicking by the river with your family. There are a number of fantastic ski resorts that can be enjoyed too. We are also an easy drive to the world famous Tyrell Museum of Palaeontology in Drumheller Alberta featuring numerous displays of the dinosaurs that roamed these lands millions of years ago. Calgary has a wide variety of attractions within the city including the "Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth", the Calgary Stampede, which takes place for ten days at the beginning of July every year. Heritage Park has displays, buildings, a steam engine railroad and a paddle wheeler that harken back to the pioneering days of the 1800's when the first European settlers arrived in the area. Calgary has been in the world's top five places to live according to the Economist Magazine. 2018 saw Calgary in 4th place overall due to it's access to recreational activities, safety, cleanliness, economic opportunities and more.
