The 4B’s of Glenbow

COFFEE WITH WARREN, with Warren Harbeck
Cochrane Eagle, August 22, 2024

Cochrane’s globetrotting hiker William Hayes did it again with his camera. This time he was enjoying the August wonders of Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park. When I saw his photos, the 4B’s of his venture really grabbbed my attention. I’ll return to those 4B’s in a moment, but first about William’s fascination with that park.

“Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park is a natural treasure located so close to home,” he says. In all four seasons, “no matter the weather, it is truly a place to find much peace in the surroundings.”

Well, this month’s mid-summer hike did not disappoint him. And as I viewed the photos he’s sharing with us this week (see my accompanying collage), I was immediately taken with his celebration of the 4B’s.

And what are the 4B’s? Why, Blossoms, Berries, Birds and Bees, of course!

“Each stroll in the park brings a variety of wonderful views to the eyes,” he says, all of which point to a Fifth B: Blessings!

Absolutely, William! And that’s why we Cochranites must never overlook the blessings that are ours with the glorious Glenblow Ranch Provincial Park so near by. Thanks for the reminder.
