After wrestling with the theme for most of the month, I finally landed on an approach. In this post, I explore the word "bandwagon" as it applies to staycations, e-biking and joining a popular trend.

Potpourri
Not your (grand)mother's potpourri, this collection of photographs features golden leaves, the typical fall colour in Banff and Canmore.
Aylmer Pass – Banff NP
Fall is a great time to undertake the long hike to Aylmer Pass in Banff National Park. Next time we'll do the Lake Minnewanka Trail portion on mountain bikes so that we have the time/energy to make the side trip to Aylmer Lookout.
Sunset Lookout & Sunset Pass – Banff NP
Most of the hiking guidebooks we own strongly recommend the trail to Sunset Pass. But the trailhead is a two hour drive from Canmore (three hours from Calgary). That's a pretty big investment of time and gas money. So this one stayed on the "someday" list for years before we finally got around to it in mid-September. Too bad we put it off for so long!
Photo Blogging Challenge – Colourful (September 2018)
Street photographers would respond to this month's theme with portraits of fascinating people. For nature/landscape photographers, the transition of summer to fall is rich with everything from flowers, to autumn leaves and blue skies. Add five days of Beakerhead to the mix for a wide range of colourful subjects.
