Late One Night, last summer

Just thought you wanted to see this little guy. He/she's crawling along an edge of our camper. Taken with flash. 

Sr. Helen Prejean

I like this lady; we had a blast when she visited and met with a bunch of us during the last week of September. She's the author of "Deadman Walking" among other books.

Tall Trials

On a recent flight to Winnipeg; a self-portrait demonstrating that the washroom on that flight was economy sized.

And there were Two

A good party was had by all, though we could used more of the stuff Josh and friends had! 

The Key to Life

Micah insisted on inserting the yellow key into our creation. 

Opa's Birthday Party

 

First Snow Fall - Nov 18, 2005

There was just enough snow on the deck for Micah and me to make the season's first snow person 

From the "Dream Home Series"

While Jean & I were in Winnipeg we walked the alley ways near where we were staying and spied this stunning little house. Wow, some kids start young.

Home work, home work.

Wow! This is precision work!

"Best Toy"

Micah says, "Say, Cheese...click" This is one toy to which Micah returns consistently.

The Driver on the Bus

Singing: "The Wheels on the Bus"
The neat part of this game was when Micah would stop and say, "I'll get another hat [or something] .. I'll be right back!" Off he would go, only to be back in a moment with something else for the bus ride. Of course, Micah, who loves repetition, would do this over and over. All in all, it was great fun!!!

Colouring Fest

Colouring really is FUN!

Micah was with Oma & Opa for the Weekend

The Weekend Begins by dragging out some toys

The Aviator

Watched "The Aviator" twice. Stories about such people, their lives and accomplishments are fascinating. If you're interested, especially if you've seen the movie, here's a good site that covers a fair bit about Howard Hughes, some of his words, with lots of pics. Here's another mostly about the "Spruce Goose".

My Digital Cameras

I take all my photos with Canon's G5 and the little SD110 - both good cameras.

Seen at Charleston Lake Prov. Park

Dual wings - amazing!

Bothered by mosquitoes or bugs? Get close to a dragonfly, and you'll be safe.

Just right 

Interesting Mushrooms. About 3cm high. Found summer of 2004

Well Rooted

Shopping Ends Here

There's more in the Cataraqui River than we want to know

Short Night

Took this shot with my tiny Canon SD110 at 1 a.m. this morning. 10 seconds shutter.

Dream Home Series

Certainly I could never afford this one. Nor any of the previous ones, I'm sure.

Dream Home Series

I'd also take this one! There are a whole string of building/additions off the back.

"22 LAKESHORE DRIVE (north side) This fine example of Second Empire architecture was built in 1879 by Mr. William Broder, village merchant. Note the conspicuous mansard roof line, rounded dormers, and heavy brackets at the eaves. The deep Classical window and door mouldings encasing large panes of glass all emphasize the vertical. The slate roof and original iron cresting crown this 22 room brick mansion. This magnificent building was also a tourist home "The Ship's Mate"." http://www.glen-net.ca/morrisburghistoricalsociety/walkingtour.html

Here's a style of house I really like. Yes, it's in need of work -- lots of it. But I'd like to have it. Found in Morrisburg.

"19 ST. LAWRENCE STREET (east side) This classic Italianate house with its wrought iron fence was built in 1876 by Dr. Sherman. The corner tower with its tall, four-sided lantern containing four pairs of Italianate round-headed windows is still an area landmark. Note also the classic Italianate porch and front door. Walk east along First Street. With one very obvious exception, this walk down to Ottawa Street is lined by buildings, which date back to before the turn of the twentieth century." http://www.glen-net.ca/morrisburghistoricalsociety/walkingtour.html
