…winter beauty by the lake
Sunset Over the Lake on a Chilly Night
…after a long distance video call with our son
….I took his advice and went for a long walk along the water’s edge of Lake Ontario TV in the neighbourhood. It was above freezing but with the wind chill factor it felt much colder.
All in all it was a beautiful night and I’m now closer to my daily walking goal.
Day 25 – Walking by the Marina

The boats have all been put away for the winter. There are only the empty docks and abandoned slips while the boats sit on dry land, wrapped in white vacuumed sealed wraps. The walk, nonetheless is still pleasant and I am reminded that colder days are yet to come.
A Different View of the Lake – November 23, 2022

In the summer this beach is busy with sunbathers, stone skippers and dog walkers. Yesterday most walkers stayed on the walkway.
Walking Through Col. Sam Smith Park
….thanks to Becky B for hosting Walking Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2022/11/22/walking-squares-22/
I love this park but I realized recently that I haven’t ventured out this far in awhile. Today I decided it was time to get back here and explore some of my favourite places. As I got closer to the pond I was actually shocked at how low the water level was. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it like this.
A Windy Walk – November 21, 2022

Today’s walk required a scarf, hat and gloves. The wind off the lake was very strong and there were lots of whitecaps today.
Snow Clouds over Buffalo – November 19, 2022
…thanks to Becky B. for hosting Walking Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2022/11/19/walking-squares-19/
On the north west shore of Lake Ontario, where we live we can see across the lake on a very clear day and see the skyline of some New York cities and towns. As you may have heard, Buffalo is having record setting amounts of snow which is crippling the folks that live there and it’s still snowing. Last evening I took a walk to the shoreline and captured these shots of snow clouds hovering over the lake. Luckily for us the winds are pushing the clouds clear of Toronto.
A friend of ours posted photos from Fort Erie which is directly across from Buffalo on the north side of Lake Erie and there was literally a wall of snow coming down over the city.
An Evening Walk by the Lake – Day 8
…thanks to Becky B for hosting Walking Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2022/11/08/walking-squares-8/
Now that the time change occurred it’s getting darker sooner in the evenings. I headed out towards the lake which is only 100 m from my house and quickly took some shots of the city skyline of Toronto and then turned around and I got shots of the sunset. Some of you may remember that less than a week ago you couldn’t see the city because of the fog.
It wasn’t even 5:30 when I started back home and it was already dark.
Walking Squares for November – November 4, 2022
….thanks to Becky B for starting up the square challenge againhttps://beckybofwinchester.com/2022/11/04/walking-squares-4/
The theme for November is square photos taken while walking. Seeing that I try to walk every day this should be fun. The last few days have been very foggy.
