My Morning Tuesday Walk
Good Monday Morning – May 16, 2022
….waking up to grey skies
When I woke up the day didn’t look too promising, especially for getting out for a long walk. I quickly got dressed and headed out the door to get a few steps in before the rain started. I managed to complete a few chores in the backyard as well, like putting away the yard waste bags so they wouldn’t get drenched before garbage day, and cleaning out the wasp trap and filling the bird feeder. Here are a few photos I took on my short walk.





About mid-morning the rain started and I drove my husband to the clinic for his bi-monthly shot. On the way back we stopped at the store to replenish our milk, egg, fruit and cheese supplies. Once we got back home we made our first meal of the day.
The rain hasn’t amounted to much so far and it looks like it may have stopped for the day. I might be able to get out for another walk after all but in the meantime I have some paintings to finish. I’m starting to feel better about getting ready for my solo art show at the end of June.

Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge – March Spring
….it may be spring according to the calendar but winter isn’t done with us just yet
The beginning of March brought so much hope for an early spring but the last few days of March had other ideas. Here are a few of the things I’ve witnessed in the last four weeks.
These photos appear in the order that they were taken.








Good Morning Shot
…it’s not often that I get to see this
It happens every day but I’m usually still in bed. Yesterday I had to get up early to drive my daughter and her family to the airport. It was still partially dark when we left but on my drive back home the glare from the rising sun was almost blinding. I stopped at the bottom of our street to get this shot.


Water, Water Everywhere – #119 – What a Difference a Week Can Make
…thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2022/03/28/canal-reflections-water-water-everywhere-119/
Last week, the rain cleared away the last bits of snow, the sun warmed up the air and the ground and I even sat on a log by the beach and enjoyed watching the ducks on the lake and the Great Blue Heron on the pond.




…..and then the temperature dropped and we woke up to this on Sunday morning.


It’s still icy cold and this morning more snow fell after I dropped my daughter and her family off at the airport. When they arrived in Moncton, N.B. they were greeted with hail. Ahhhh, winter in Canada. Luckily, we know that spring is just around the corner but we can’t put the boots away just yet.
