An Evening Walk

…today was a beautifully warm day and before dinner I needed to make up some steps to reach my goal

No wind, the setting sun and temperatures hovering around 10 degrees Celsius were ideal conditions for an evening walk through the neighbourhood. I headed west and entered Col. Sam Smith Park where I opted to walk through the naturalized area and over to the marina. Here are a few of the sites I encountered along the way.

Can you guess what that lump in the pond is?

When I returned home I prepared a simple supper of eggs, avocado and tomatoes.

Cee’s Which Way Photo Challenge – A Gift at the End of the Road

……thanks to Cee for hosting the Which Way Photo Challenge

Now that spring is finally here, I’m back out for my walks. I headed towards the parks west of my house to see what kind of damage the recent wind storm had caused. Fortunately most of the debris and downed trees had already been cleared away.

As I continued toward the pond I was treated to a wonderful gift.

Sunday Morning Walk

….an exceptionally beautiful day

I knew that I would be indoors for most of the day trying to clean-up the two rooms upstairs so I went out for my walk early today. Frances and I headed out towards Col. Sam Smith Park. It was a glorious morning and the runners, dog walkers, nature photographers and cyclists were out early as well. With my iPhone in hand I took as many photos as Frances would allow.

Seven Day Nature Challenge – Day 1

….thank you Becca for inviting me to this challenge

Becca Givens from On Dragonfly Wings With Buttercup Tea has invited me to join the Seven Day Nature Challenge. I was first drawn to Becca’s blog when I saw her beautiful Sunday Trees and I’ve posted pictures of trees every Sunday since that day. For the next seven days I will post a photo taken from nature and ask a different person each day to join the challenge.

I’m hoping that Jodi from Life in Between will accept the challenge. She a lady of many talents, including art, cooking, poetry and photography.
