Here are the photos that popped up when I typed 180 into the search box.
…from the park at the end of my street
The city has decided to repair the sea wall at the edge of the park where I often start my walks. As a result a huge section has been fenced off and the dump trucks have started driving up and down our street delivering clean land fill and removing some of the old stuff.
The project could take up to a year to complete. The park over on Third Street is still partially fenced and that project is still ongoing after almost two years. The other park that I love to walk through, Col. Sam Smith Park has a similar project on the water’s edge and could take three years to complete.
I’ll keep you posted with the progress.

I love typing in the number into the search box on my photos page. I never know what’s going to come up. Try it, it’s a lot of fun.
It’s so cool when some of photos actually have the number 178 in them. Can you find it?
…still walkable
…after 6 wonderful days with Andrea and Olive
This is the first time in many years that I’ve experienced this much snow. Our cottage on Christian Island ( a mere 10 minutes from here to the ferry dock) is not winterized and the road up the north shore is not ploughed regularly, if at all.
While Andrea logs onto work today, I’ll be doing laundry and packing to go home. Once that is done I may do some more art or continue reading my book, Doppelgänger. Yesterday I prepped a couple of pages in my art journal and I might continue with one or both pages if I’m inspired.
Hopefully we’ll find some time after lunch to go for another walk. It’s considerably warmer today and it has finally stopped snowing.

…more snow
Since Sunday the snow has come down every day. There’s a good 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) on the ground and it just keeps coming. Andrea and I were going to go for a drive but thought better of it when we checked the forecast.
Olive loves the snow. The worst part for her and probably for her humans is getting dressed to go out.
Once outside you can see from the snow on the railings how much more snow had fallen.
…in the dead of winter
It was definitely colder than yesterday, partly due to the winds coming off the bay. I was grateful for the use of Andrea’s hand warmers that slipped into my gloves.
