Walk after a snowstorm

 




I climbed to the top of the hill at Crocker park 

of a morning after a snow.

Abbot Hall is on the highest peak in old town and from there it descends down to the sea.


The harbour is empty except for a few fishing boats.

A cold wind at my back I tromp back through the snow toward my little warm and cozy home. 



We stood on the edge of the Atlantic to view the plantetary alignment.

Because of the clouds I didn’t think we’d be able to see much and I left my camera at home...

Oh me of little faith. I did manage to get this picture with my phone before the clouds moved in though.

    Yep. I'm trying to get outside each day for a walk. It does the spirits and the body good!

    Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family ... I hope you can be together to celebrate.

    Beautiful photos of the scene with the snow. We got some snow, but all gone now in time for Christmas. :( Couldn't see the star here...way too cloudy. Have a nice week

    Awesome photos. I do like snowscapes. Your shot of the 'Star' is pretty cool for a phone shot.

    So glad you joined us at 'My Corner of the World' this week! Merry Christmas!

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
