saw the most interesting seeds on the ground as I was walking home tonight…

I think they were seeds… looking up the street portions of the sidewalk were green and I couldn’t figure out why…

when I got to those spots the cement was covered in what looked like tiny green leaves… I’ve never seen this before…

clearly it had to do with a particular type of tree, not sure what kind… did a little research but no particular tree jumped out at me…

I did read something about a response to stress causing a huge drop of seeds;-(…

today I had an eye appointment… good news is that my eyes are looking great… not so good news is that I probably need to consider new glasses… had to wait for a while to see my eye doctor…

spent a few minutes waiting by Sargent Sundae…

then met a friend and we went for lunch at the Park Café and a walk around the English Garden… it was overcast and a bit windy, but it was nice to be outdoors…

one of my favourite photos from our time in the Garden… I’m always looking for flowers and frogs in the ponds, lol…

first water lily of the season…

early this morning watered all the plants in the garden with a bucket… it meant that I got lots of steps in and did a bit of weight training, lol…

summer is nearly upon us…

so enjoy the time to wander around the space and enjoy the beauty…

morning is my best time… by the end of the day I am often just interested in vegging out in front of the tv…

got up early and went for a walk to the Park… temperature was going to 34° and will feel like 39° Celsius…

so an early walk seemed like a good plan, lol..

by the time I got home just before 10, it was already hot…

as I was walking down the next street, two bunnies froze in place as I was coming down the sidewalk… the yard they were in was filled with dandelions which they love…

they really think if they freeze the person walking along won’t see them, lol…

as soon as I passed them, they both hopped away…

as I was walking home last night I stopped by the creek and watched the mallard couple for quite a while…

they were swimming up and down the creek calmly…

was so busy enjoying the moment that I didn’t take any photos…

but I have this one from last week, when a mallard popped out of the water at the Duck Pond…

cute, eh…

toys…

busy day as I researched and decided on which version of iPhone X I would upgrade to…

walked up and down Polo Park a few times as I checked out the various options…

one of the things I was most interested in was the quality of the camera, as I take many photos…

also, size of the phone was important… I didn’t want something too large for my hand and that would feel uncomfortable…

and then there was the issue of the case… I have the most wonderful case now, but it isn’t available for an iPhone X…

I want something that doesn’t cover the front of the phone as I do take so many photos…

in the end I chose the iPhone X and purchased it from The Source… picked up a Huawei tablet and a Kate Spade cover…

I also found a case that holds a few credit cards… not sure yet which case I will use most, lol…

then I came home and figured out how to move my data from the old to the new…

even got the tablet working with all the apps I use… it will be fun to learn the android system…

looking forward to playing with these new toys;-)…

grass…

took these photos Sunday, on my walk in the Park…

clearly some geese were setting up their nest on the roof of the skating shelter by the Duck Pond…

sort of funny when you think that the roof on the Qualico Family Center, just a few steps away, is made of grass, lol…

couples…

as I walked up the street tonight I saw a few couples…

the mallard couple have been coming to this creek for many years… these might be the children or even grandchildren now…

a few steps further along I came across the bunny couple… they weren’t sitting quite as close together, lol…

nice walk…
