Since my slip & fall that resulted in my shoulder breaking a little over 3 weeks ago, I have hardly been outside. I made a return visit to the doctor, with the help of a nephew, who drove me there & back home 2 weeks later. He also cleaned my car off and got it… Continue reading Time to Get Out Walking Again

A Beautiful Morning in Birds Hill Provincial Park – part 3
Time to move onto my last trail of the morning. This is Cedar Bog, self-guiding trail. I have walked this trail before. The first time I didn’t look at the map at the start and when I came to a part where the trail divided, I turned around and went back. The second time (after… Continue reading A Beautiful Morning in Birds Hill Provincial Park – part 3
Setting Up an Aquarium
It has been a few years since I have had any pets and even more years since I’ve had an aquarium. For a few years I had several aquariums going at a time with different fish or critters in them. It is hard to find apartments that allow any pets around here unless you can… Continue reading Setting Up an Aquarium
The English Garden in Assiniboine Park
This morning I decided to head over to the English Garden in Assiniboine Park to see if I could find any Hummingbirds or Indigo Buntings. I did see one hummingbird, but it didn’t stay long enough for a photo – and I didn’t see an Indigo Bunting, but think I heard one. So – I… Continue reading The English Garden in Assiniboine Park

You have met these boys before, but I have (of course) taken a few more photos of our time together. Many of my facebook friends have seen… Continue reading Dogs/Cats/House Sitting
Winnipeg to Vancouver – Day 5
My daughter Angie has plans made for the days I will be here and everything sounds so great. Today’s excursion was out to Othello-Quintette Tunnels, which is in a Provincial Park. Here, the Coquihalla River has dug a deep canyon (Coquihalla Canyon) with its rushing waters. The tunnels go alongside the river and cross over… Continue reading Winnipeg to Vancouver – Day 5
Winnipeg to Vancouver – day 1, part 1
As if it isn’t far enough to go from Winnipeg to Vancouver, I decided to take a detour on day 1 and go to Riding Mountain National Park. It isn’t much good coming here just for a few hours, so I booked 2 nights here. 🙂 The drive here was uneventful. I drove the Trans… Continue reading Winnipeg to Vancouver – day 1, part 1
It is Time for Macy & Teddy

They are both adorable and I am having lots of fun hanging out with them. We go for 2 or 3 walks every day (even… Continue reading It is Time for Macy & Teddy
