And from the speeches after:

Have a good day all!

Jasper's New Totem Pole - Part II
I managed to choose a good bench to park myself on, I was able to see most of what was going on and hear the speeches that were made after the raising. The sound system was not very good and there was no way I was able to hear the speeches that were made before the raising. I did mange to see all sorts of of lovely costumes, so here are some crowd photos from Saturday.

It sounds like an interesting time, Reb. Good job on the pics. Nice work on the pole against the mountains.
Very nifty, Reb. I'd love to have been there. I'm glad you and your camera were.
Amazing craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks Leah. It was a wonderful day for photos.
Frank, I am sure you would have enjoyed the day.
Messymimi, they are beautiful works of art.
Looks like a colourful and interesting time for sure.
I like crowd shots, gives a real sense of being there
the totem is wonderful
loved your comment about the guy at the glass window, made me feel better to know I wasn't the only one who felt that way :)
How cool! Glad you captured the event. Only problem: now I want a towering totem pole in my yard and I don't see any way that's gonna happen.
Hilary, it was! I just wished I could have moved around more.
Dianne, they do add to the scene.
Crabby, at least I can visit this one occasionally ;)
Very cool pics, great crowds and the scenery behind is stunning!
There’s nothing better than people watching. Especially if you found a good, comfortable bench to do it from.
Sunshine in the Rockies is great for events. The craftsmanship that goes into making a totem pole is a fine art that should be used more.
Hope you fully enjoyed your trip, Reb.
Thanks Scott. There is nothing better than being in the Rockies ;)
Barbara, I did. Even clouds and a bit of rain couldn't have spoiled the day.
This was fun - thanks for taking us along!
Love the photo of the bright yellow moccasins, and the totem pole against the mountains.
