Color Challenge - Friday Sky Blue - Throwback to Alberta Canada Trip 16 Years Ago!

Hi steemit friends,

For today's [colorchallenge](https://steemit.com/trending/colorchallenge), I wanted to take the opportunity to share a photo with you from a trip that I took nearly 16 years ago to Alberta, Canada! I was at my parents house recently, helping them clean out their back storage area, when I came across several old family photo albums from the past. I find it can be very fun from time to time to pause and reflect back on old family memories and trips, so I couldn't resist sitting down for a bit to flip through them! 

This photo in particular was taken while my parents, my brother and I went to Alberta, Canada to visit my Uncle, Aunt and cousins. Here you can see my father (left), my younger brother (right), with me in the center. I think at that time I would have been roughly 7 years old if my math serves me correctly... We spent the day visiting Lake Louise which as you can see is phenomenally blue! That's one of the great things about the wildlife in the province of Alberta - it is truly spectacular, with so many sights to take in! I would love to go back there someday. Perhaps with a family of my own - I definitely wouldn't mind revisiting this view to recreate the photo!

My oh my how time has flown! Looking back on these memories really makes me appreciate what I've been able to experience so far up to this point with my family. It makes me very optimistic for all of the great things that I'll get to do going forward as well! It has also made me realize how important it is that I cherish and fully appreciate every time that I get to spend time with my parents or my brother.

As humans, none of us really know how much time we have left with our loved ones, so it is always best to make the most of our time together while we still can!

I couldn't agree more! The innocence that we all have as children really does make many of those distant memories so nice, happy and beautiful!
