War and Peace.

Griesbach Village is a new development in Edmonton. When the military base shut down and moved to Garrison just north of Edmonton it left all of the old houses and buildings. So over the past few years this old army base has been transformed into a lovely place that many people now call home.
Lots of new homes and little manmade lakes such as this make for a wonderul place. So today before heading over to my Mom's for Thanksgiving dinner we took the time to go for a walk through this area
