Which Way Photo Challenge – My Longest Walk This Year

….thanks to San from Alive and Trekking for hosting the Which Way Photo Challenge https://aliveandtrekking.com/2023/04/21/which-way-photo-challenge-april-21/

My daily goal is to walk at least 10 000 but some days I fall a bit short. Last Sunday I managed over 13 000 steps because I headed out to the point over at Col. Sam Smith Park. This was the first time in quite awhile that I walked that far but it felt good. Along the way I took some of the less travelled paths, looking for interesting subjects to photograph.

I’m a Fan of…..Seagulls

except when they go after my food

Seagulls are typically known as ‘scavengers of the beach’ and can be quite a nuisance at take-out restaurants and food trucks that are close to the water. The seagulls that I love are the ones close to home where there are no lunches to steal. Sometimes people like to feed them and they can create quite a scene as they dive for food.

Pull Up a Seat – Week 15

thanks to Xingfu Mama for hosting Pull Up a Seat https://xingfumama.blog/2023/04/14/pull-up-a-seat-photo-challenge-2023-week-15/

I’ve never seen people actually sit in these chairs but I can imagine on a nice day it would be lovely to look over the lake and the city.

I’m a Fan of …..Waves

thanks to Jez for hosting I’m a Fan of….https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2023/04/10/breakfast-in-princes-street-gardens-fan-of-201/

I love the waves on Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay where our cottage is. I won’t be going to the cottage for at least another month but the lake by our house never fails to provide some magnificent waves.
