finally made it all the way to the English and Leo Mol Gardens…

it was a beautiful day and there were lots of people out and about enjoying the amazing fall day…

as I walked along the path through the trees, I came upon a birder, (he had a camera with a very long lens hanging around his neck) who was feeding chickadees and nuthatches from his hand… he had shelled and unshelled sunflower seeds so they could have a treat right away, but also something to take away and stash, lol…

I stood and watched for a few moments;-)…

here are a few other things that caught my eye;-)…

the gardens look lovely with all the fall blooms and colours…

while I was there, I did collect some Poké balls, lol…

what a delightful walk;-).

went for another walk around the neighbourhood… it was a bit cool and windy, but the sun was shining so it was enjoyable… hoping to get back into a regular routine, lol…

took another book to drop off at the Little Library and while I was there I picked up two to bring home to read…

good exercise carrying them as I walked;-)…

finally went for a walk a week ago…

took a few books and dropped them off at a Little Library…

on my walk I got a few nice photos…

this flower bed had purple in it and on the planter and behind is a purple picnic table;-)…

didn’t go all the way to the Park, but want to get back into the habit, so decided to start small…

felt good;-)…

Tuesday, a friend picked me up and we had a wander through the Diversity Gardens…

it was her first time there and I enjoyed being the tour guide, lol…

we were so busy catching up that I barely took any photos…

I did take some of a few grasses we thought might work in the garden between the cedars which might cover it a bit more of the chain link now that the neighbours have removed their planters…

from there, we drove over and walked through the English sand Leo Mol Gardens…

we spent some time relaxing on a bench by the pond and learning about Pokémon as I have just started playing again and now have my own account;-)…

it was a beautiful evening, so we walked over to Sam’s on Sunday night… we’ve been wanting to go, but hadn’t made it until then…

the menu was basically schnitzel and burgers with a few appetizers, salads and desserts…

we had burgers and curly fries… I had a schnitzel burger…

the patty was twice the size of the pretzel bun, so I cut it in half and brought the leftovers home for lunch…

everything was tasty and Sam, the owner, was very cute and attentive… it was fun to see how the regulars waited to say goodbye to him before leaving;-)…

may go again…

cupcakes…

enjoyed the sun in the garden on Saturday and had a visitor who brought cupcakes from High Tea Bakery…

we shared two of them and they were very tasty…

really, there is nothing better than spending time in the garden with a good friend;-)…

on this Summer Solstice, the day began just after 5:30 am… watched a fisher, and many, many pelicans, bringing in their nets as the sky lightened…

then celebrated the Solstice with water, rocks, fire, and a few thoughts on this auspicious day…

went for a walk in the heat of the day and found a few beach options…

ended the day watching a gorgeous sunset;-)…

I am blessed to be able to spend this day with this delightful young woman…

met up with a friend and went for a walk at the Park… great to visit and catch-up;-)… and get some exercise at the same time…

need to get back to a regular routine of walking over and around the Gardens…

I may have gone just a bit further than I should have… one of my feet was just a touch irritated with me… but so wonderful to enjoy the Gardens…

glove-free…

on Thursday we walked instead of going to aquasize…

we had breakfast at the Park Cafe where we waited a few moments before getting our table…

I had falafel eggs Benedict without the English muffin and it was very tasty…

after that, we drove over and walked around the outside of the Diversity Gardens on the road which was clear of snow and ice… we went through the Gardens as well where most of the paths were snow free… it was cold, but basically the only frozen things were our fingers, lol… particularly when I was glove-free taking photos…


we enjoyed our half hour walk and are looking forward to more such walks as the weather improves;-)…
