Stella got me out of the house in the early afternoon for a walk in the coulee. We went to the area across from the University of Lethbridge where there is a great view of architect Arthur Erickson's University Hall. The sightlines have been somewhat ruined by apartment buildings that were built behind the campus but you can still get the full impact of the structure from below. The coulee remains as stunning as ever. Stella got great pleasure in diving into and swimming in the Old Man River but it was too muddy for me. Stella enjoyed it as she always does. 8.33 km.
