I will soon spill a few more tidbits of times past of Alberta. In looking at online access to good history books I discovered the University of Calgary has a collection online that are free to read. In these books are stories that were written about different areas and towns of Alberta. Many have the pioneer and settler's stories. Very much worth a bookmark if you enjoy reading such books or have a family history in an area. There are stories by those families. Some have great stories about the hunting and fishing too. Enjoy the link.

This grizzly was shot by Innisfail back in the early 1900's.
