Smoke on the water
My thirteen year old had a basketball clinic away from home today so we had to get in the road fairly early. It was frosty this morning with lots of fog. On the drive in whenever we past water it was covered with a foggy smoke. If we weren’t on a time crunch I would…

Up around the bend
A few of us in the house went out for an evening walk tonight. I guess I delayed things a bit too much as it gets dark so early now. We didn’t go as far as I’d have liked as the trail was darker then I imagined. As you’re coming out of the trail there…

Shadow
Today was my first day back to work after an extended leave. I’m going to have to be more deliberate about ensuring I have opportunities to do the things I want in the run of the day. From exercise to taking a good picture. Today I didn’t do so great at it. While getting some…

Lake at dusk
Someday I would love to have a cottage on either the ocean or on a lake. There is something so peaceful about it. Even just standing at the side of this lake tonight was a great way to start winding down the day. But if I had my own place that I could sit back…

Old trees
This tree is one of a few big old trees on the first property in our sub division. Before they divided up their land there was a long driveway which had these trees lining it. Most of them are gone now to make way for the new homes which have gone up. I’m glad there…

Retaining wall
This wall holds back a hill from falling into a parking lot that was likely carved out of it. I’ve parked in this lot often and never really noticed the wall in the back corner before. Maybe it was the colourful leaves all around that drew me to it today.

Before the rain
After school drop off my three year old son and I decided to go for a little walk. It’s calling for rain for most of the day so we thought we’d avoid it. The rain held off, but there was already puddles along the trail and they were too tempting for little feet. So we…

A bit of calm
Today was a stressful day. It felt busy, hectic, and things just didn’t go right. Even my run where I took this picture. It took me a long time to find a good time to fit in a run but I really needed one. Finally got ready to go out and it started pouring rain…

Cattails
This pond is just a short distance from home just off a trail, but on private property. The water level is pretty low but it still nice. This isn’t the best picture but it’s the best one I got today. There is just this small patch of cattails at one end and live always liked…

Changing leaf
This was a quick photo taken earlier today. It’s a leaf from the tree in our front yard. When you look at the tree as a whole the colours look beautiful. But when you look at one leaf it looks like or sad.
