afternoon dreaming

How I love to watch the clouds
Peacefully, peacefully drifting by
Silently upon the breeze
They ease across the clear blue sky

E is for electricity

I know how electricity works, but I still do not completely understand how it works.

...and wireless has me totally baffled.

D is for danger

With all the wind that came with last week's "snowmageddon" the shoreline was full of snowballs and the promenade and railings covered completely in ice!

Ottawa in summer

following a dream

Far away there in the sunshine are my brightest aspirations. I may not reach them all but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them and follow them where ever they may lead.

C is for canoes and condos

This large, oversized, Douglas Coupland designed red canoe sits atop a knoll surrounded by many new condo buildings with an outlook straight out onto Lake Ontario at (what used to be) Garrison Creek.

My world this week includes a bit of falling water and lots of ice.

And another storm is brewing...

B is for black and white

I’ve never had a ‘black & white cookie’ and have only heard of them from Seinfeld, and this small cookie cafe on Market St in Corning was closed when I stumbled on it. So I still have no idea how good this delicacy may taste.

time to travel

My world is only a 4 hour drive from the best museum I have ever been to. And as a bonus, Corning includes an historical Market Street that has been meticulously preserved.
