Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge – #52
….for the last week of the year I just had to participate in one of my favourite photo challenges
Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge allows us to post any photo that doesn’t really fit into any other category. This past weekend when I walked through the neighbourhood I noticed these bushes that had been cut back, leaving only the base of the the plant. Sometimes they literally grew from the rocks.

A Late Afternoon Walk – Now
…this week’s WordPress Challenge is Now
This week we are encouraged to embrace the ‘now’ and share photos of the present moment. This afternoon I took a walk through the neighbourhood. It was getting late and the sky was cloudy. It was also very brisk and I was glad that I brought my gloves with me. Here are a few things that I saw on my journey to get more steps in today and to capture the things we take for granted.

The weather continues to be mild but the temperatures did drop in the last two days. Today was brisk but sunny. The forecast calls for more mild weather in the next week. No white Christmas this year.

Travel Theme: Fabric
…..Aisla from Where’s My Backpack has challenged us to post photos of fabric
I’ve always loved fabrics. My parents opened their own fabric/wool store when I was 16 years old. They decided on this business partly due to the fact that as a family we sewed a lot of our own clothes and I already knew that I wanted to be a home economics/family studies teacher.
Recently my husband and I went to an exhibit at the ROM where they featured the traditional fabrics and clothes of Mexico.
Bench Series #49
….. for the month of December Jude from Travel Words challenges us to post a bench of our choice
When I saw that I could post a photo of any bench that I liked I remembered coming across two very unusual benches in the park that I frequently walk through. These two benches are part a memorial garden for the former patients of the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital that closed its doors in the late 1970s. They look more like sculptures but you can sit on them.
