…..thanks to Travelling at Wits End for hosting 31 Inspirations for November
Today’s theme is interesting advertisements. My selection comes from my trips to the cottage, signs on bus shelters and my recent trip to London, England.

This will probably be the last of the autumn foliage phots until next year.

A Photo a Week Challenge – Reflection
….since there is no new challenge this week I decided to go back to Nancy Merrill’s blog and check out which challenge I’d missed
The challenge that I missed was Reflection
View From My Window
….on Tuesday there were still quite a few leaves left on the trees
Since Tuesday we’ve had high winds and a fair bit of rain. I was sure that most of the leaves would be gone within a day or two but there are surprisingly some very stubborn trees in the neighbourhood that are still showing off some beautiful colours.
Today was another windy, cold and wet day. From my window I could see that there are definitely fewer leaves and there were some serious white caps on the lake.

New Flower (November 8, 2018) – Before the Garden was Put to Bed
….yesterday when I was working a Montgomery’s Inn I walked around the grounds while the bread was in the oven and I took a few shots before the gardens were put to bed for the winter
New Flower (November 6, 2018) – Hardy Rose
….I thought I’d seen the last of the roses for the season but the outside gardens at Centennial Park had bits of colour throughout the rose garden
Signs That Autumn is Definitely Here
….for weeks I’ve been complaining that the colours aren’t changing
Well I finally got my wish but the cold and rain are starting to get me down. I guess without the cooler temperatures we wouldn’t get these beautiful colours. Enjoy!
Thursday Doors – Sept.27, 2018
….thanks to Jolene for hosting Thursday Doors this week
After dropping my father off at Union Station this morning I went outside the train station to snap a few shots. The doors are from Union Station and the Royal York Hotel which is right across the street (first place where my Dad took a job when he first arrived in Canada in 1954).
My dad loves to tell the story of how he got off the train at Union Station and asked someone where he could get a job as a waiter. It was his first day in Canada. They pointed across the street and told him that the Royal York Hotel was the largest hotel in Toronto. He walked over, introduced himself and they hired him on the spot.
