The change of season is more and more blatant up here. More clouds appear than sun at dawn ---- this cloudrise resembles a scene in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" where the UFO searches for intelligent life on Earth (insert punchline here...). On the shed roof, that old saying proves true ---- moss only grows on the north side. Ice is trying to gain a hold on the pond but don't lace up your skates just yet. Down at the barn The Digger is clearing the edges for some defensive ditching...
We had a bittersweet daytrip to our Beach 'hood in Toronto. Always warm and fuzzy to stroll the Boardwalk and have a Combo #6 at The Goof. But sad this time because we dropped in on a celebration of the life of the neighbour right across the street. Jim was a lifeguard, motorcycle racer, wisecracker, and devoted husband and father. I was surprised but honoured to find my picture among the hundreds of people who admired and respected him. Great guy, fun neighbour.
Driving home in the dark, we had missed the local Santa Parade but it had been pouring rain all day anyway. Do the reindeer wear reincoats?? But we had a chance to see the festive lights starting to appear. The harbour is lit to honour the town's maritime history. And next door the decorations get bigger/brighter/tech-ier every year. Hey Darryl ---- is that a rotating light beam or do you have red/blue/green fireflies dancing on your roof??
After 5 years and thousands of snaps, this is the last blog posting using pictures from the Panasonic point-and-shoot camera. There's a new canon to fire on this season's travels. Ready, aim, focus!!
