Public gardens
One of the downfalls of working in a distributed company is not getting to hang out with the cool people you work with nearly enough. So when a close co-worker ends up in our area for a long weekend I was glad we were able to spend some time together. I hadn’t seen her in…

Canadian winter stereotype
Maybe it’s fading memory but I feel like I don’t see this scene as much as I did when I was younger. It felt like if there was a frozen over body of water people were skating on it. Likely climate change is playing a part. Winters don’t seem to have sustained cold like we…

Smart trainer
For Christmas this year I received a new smart bike trainer. I ran into some issues with it so wasn’t able to use it. Thankfully the company was great and I ended up with a new one just a couple of days ago. For the last two days I’ve been able to get some short…

Wreath through the window
It’s a freezing blustery day. We’ve broken recorded windchill temperatures so it’s been quick trips out with the dog and that’s it. Despite that they have been a few moments where it has looked pretty bright out. During one of these bright periods the light coming in around the snow covered wreath, with the pattern…

Frosty leaf on salty road
Seems like it wasn’t long that I got over the last bout of what ever, now I’m waking up again coming down with something new. The cold air actually felt good on the walk, but even on the short loop I lost my energy quickly. On the route was this frosty leaf lying in the…

Cold but bright
Last night we got some snow and cold temperatures. Enough that some has stuck on the ground. Even though it’s cold today the sun is out and bright, it makes it pretty nice especially if you find a break from the wind. This is a cool little place that I found because I would see…

Neighbours
My 13 year old is doing an interval running program, still early into it. My role is timer basically. I’ll go out and help keep him on track while he’s running. This afternoon we were out and I looked over and saw the sun going down behind a neighbours house. We just had our first…

Corner lamp
I missed taking a picture yesterday. I made it to bed when I realized there was nothing I could post. It was getting pretty close tonight to the same thing. As I was getting ready to go to bed I saw the lamp in the corner and the way the light was shining off the…

Hometown center court
This town logo must be a relatively new addition to the outdoor basketball court. It’s been a little bit since I’ve been down to it, but I don’t remember it being there last time. My 13 year old and I took the three year old down to the playground while the older played around here…

Swish
Basketball is a big part of our lives. My son plays and I help coach his teams. We also like watching basketball when we can. We had practice tonight and this was one of his warm up shots. I tried my hand at some phot editing from my phone. Not super happy with how it…
