Our Pasque Flower

Blooming early this spring

Surprise at Cobourg home show.

Went to the Cobourg home show Sunday April 29 and ran into Gary and Mary-Anne, our former camp owners. Really nice to see them! They are running quite a successful business building custom decks and structures along with rubber surfacing.

A pleasant surprise! First time to see my cousin Julian's band.

It pays to have a little car when parking is hard to find!

Encountered at the Fallsview Casino parking garage Saturday Feb.25/12

Always a special time when the orchid starts to bloom.

Waiting for spring.

Tree eats sign.

It must be at least 6" into the tree.  Been there awhile.  Can't quite make out what it says.

Dragonfly hangs on

It was a breezy day as we walked through a field on our hike. I noticed this dragonfly hanging onto a dried plant. Managed to grab a photo before it took flight. This is one of my favourite pictures because it always reminds of of those beautiful sunny, hot and breezy summer days.
