January Light – Day 1
…thanks to Becky B for hosting this month’s #January Squares
All month the challenge is to post square photos of objects or scenes that have the word ‘light’ in them. My first entry is sunlight. Sometimes sunlight is a rare occurrence in January so when it comes out I’m outside with my trust camera or iPhone.
Monday Windows – Exploring the Older Neighbourhood
…do you have any windows to share for Monday Windows
Today I wandered into some parts of my neighbourhood that I’ve never explored before. I’ve lived here for over 41 years but there are streets further east towards Mimico that have eluded me. Today the conditions were perfect for walking.
Many of the homes that I saw today are close to a hundred years old and are need of some TLC but the charm and original beauty came through the blistered paint and rusty eaves. Others were in great shape and some were replaced with new and more modern structures.
Some of the newer places were meant to look old but many were very modern with large windows and simple lines.

Christmas Lights After Dark
….I’m guilty of not putting up my Christmas lights this year….yet
Thank goodness that my neighbours had the energy to put out their decorations and string lights in front of their homes. So far I’ve only managed a wreath on my door and I purchased an outdoor arrangement that I placed on my new post by the front stairs. Unfortunately the winds have been so strong that it’s been blown over three times and the last fall completely shattered the container.
Here are a few homes that I managed to photograph a few days ago. I would have posted sooner but I was having issues with adding photographs taken with my new iPhone. Fortunately that’s been settled.

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas
….the trees on the street are in place and the store owners have started to decorate them 
The Lakeshore Santa Claus Parade is this Saturday so I’m sure there will a lot more decorations. Stay tuned.
