I’m intrigued with Travel Tuesday on Dutch Goes the Photo. Jensen posts different photos each Tuesday and asks his followers to identify where they come from. Here is my first entry for this challenge.

Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge – Treasure

thanks to Sue W and GC for hosting the Weekly Prompts https://weeklyprompts.com/2023/02/18/weekly-prompts-weekend-challenge-treasure/

Treasure for me is not my jewellery or furnishing or even my house. I learned a long time ago that ‘things’ don’t bring happiness, certainly not for a sustained period of time. My treasures are more life experiences that I’ve had and the memories that they evoke. My wedding day, giving birth and watching my children grow up are my greatest treasures. Now I can also add my grandchildren to that list.

If I started to post all my favourite memories I would be posting dozens of pictures. Instead I’ve decided to post some of my favourite ‘treasured’ photos from the past. I love these old photos.

A Great Day to Pull Up a Seat and Enjoy the Sun

….thanks to Xingfu Mama for Hosting Pull Up a Seat https://xingfumama.blog/2023/02/10/pull-up-a-seat-photo-challenge-2023-week-6/

It doesn’t matter where you sit or what you sit on, these people were determined to enjoy the mild temperatures and sunny day this past weekend. Quite incredible when you think that it’s still winter in Toronto and barely the middle of February.
