enjoyed a lovely walk in two parks this afternoon…

haven’t walked through Truro Park for ages…  


looking up the creek as I started my walk…

 
this is the spot where we scattered George’s ashes… 

  

spent some time taking pictures of the water along my walk… this was my favourite… took it in Bruce Park… 

just love the sound of running water… makes me happy…

haven’t been this way in a while… last time I walked here regularly was when I was recovering from my surgery and talking daily short walks…

the final treat was spotting these two ducks on my way back…

  

a gorgeous wood duck and his partner…

will have to walk through that area on a regular basis so I might get to see some babies…

looking forward to getting the pond working soon so that I can hear the running water right here…

  
  

beautiful…

beautiful, big girl pants, creek, errands, mallards, wood duck

well, today was more like it… second day of my .9 time and a beautiful one…

slept in a bit and had a leisurely breakfast… headed out and got a few errands done… even booked an oil change for the car…

new shoes, bra, swimsuit and groceries…

  
nice haul… once I got home I took a walk around the creek…

saw a wood duck couple and got a few pictures…

  
very exciting because we’ve only seen mallards in the creek… the mallards have been nesting here for the last thirty years…

  
here’s the fella… beautiful…

later, spent a bit of time weeding the front flower bed… the rubber mulch isn’t doing quite what I was hoping for… grass is still coming through, sigh…

  
beautiful day… looking forward to many more like it:-)…
