Sunday Trees – 337
….thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees
Birds by the Lake
….most stay all year
Even though many birds migrate south in the fall, here in Toronto many of these migrating birds stay here all winter long. Now that the weather is starting to warm up and the sun has reappeared (although today is grey and raining) the swans, Canada geese and gulls happily go about their day and don’t seem to mind the close proximity of people, in fact some love the extra attention.
Cee’s Odd Ball Photo – April 22, 2018
….thanks Cee for hosting the Odd Ball Photo Challenge
I’m a little late this week and I could have saved these shots for tomorrow but I’m hoping I’ll have new ones by then.

Thursday Doors – April 26, 2018
…..despite the tragedy that this city experienced this week my post will remain positive
Toronto is still one of the best cities in the world to live. We were all shocked by Monday’s senseless act where a lone disturbed man ran down innocent pedestrians on the sidewalk with a van.
Toronto the Good is now being replaced with Toronto Strong. Today I walked about my west end neighbourhood and photographed some colourful and interesting doors.
Thanks to Norm for hosting Thursday Doors.

365 Days of Art – More One-liners Transformed
…day 82
I keep adding more colour, collage, line detail and background marks to my one-liner birds. I also added two new characters that I borrowed from Eva Ucgatwork. I love expressions and how they appear to be in awe of these strange looking birds.
Share Your World – April 23, 2018
…..thanks to Cee for coming up with great questions each and every week for Share Your World
If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?
My answer is pretty close to Cee’s . I love cheese and dark chocolate and then a nice red wine to go with it.
List at least five movies or books that cheer you up.
The Wizard of Oz, Forrest Gump, Life of Pi, Up, Bridget Jone’s Diary, Mama Mia
If you were a mouse in your house in the evening, what would you see your family doing?
After dinner a mouse (me) would see us sitting in the living room watching TV. After a couple of hours my husband would go to his meditation room and meditate and do yoga and then get ready for bed. I, on the other hand, would sit in front of my computer and read some emails , read a book and/or work at my art table and produce some art. This seems to be the time when I’m most productive and often stay up till 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning.
What did you appreciate or what made you smile this past week? Feel free to use a quote, a photo, a story, or even a combination.
Last week I saw my father off to the airport. He flew to Germany to visit his brother. When he called on the weekend I was so happy for him because I could tell that he was having a wonderful time.
On Thursday I drove to Hamilton to spend the day with my daughter and granddaughter. We did a little shopping but mostly we played in the playroom. On Friday I printed Snoopy designs onto the front of six t-shirts that the family wore to our family lunch on Saturday.
The lunch on Saturday was a lovely casual affair and because the weather was so nice we went for a long walk to the park down the street and followed the Heritage Trail. The trail meanders through the park and past numerous marinas. We ended up at a cute little playground where Winnie wandered around and tried out the various pieces of playground equipment.
