Sunny Skaha Lake

34 Comments

After 25 cm (9.8 inches) of rain recently fell on us, we had a beautifully sunny day.

For a change of scene I had a ramble at Skaha Lake, which is at the south end of the city.

It was 10C (50F) and windless, so walking conditions were pretty nice.

I encountered a group a students with their teacher who were happily enjoying a weenie roast on the beach after they had completed a hike. They were having a great time.

It was wonderful to have a break from the rain and I enjoyed every second.

Happy Saturday.

  4. I had 10C conditions yesterday that made it pleasant to walk in today. Today, is a very wet day.

    It looks lovely there where you walked. And perfect.

  9. What a lovely glimpse of sunshine after so much rain!
    Skaha Lake sounds like the perfect escape—calm, clear, refreshing.
    The scene of students roasting weenies feels so alive and joyful.
    Nature, warmth, laughter—pure moments worth holding onto.
    Wishing you many more golden days like this. Happy Saturday!

    1. Thank you very much for your lovely comments, Hary. It was a grand walk and so great to see lots of people out enjoying it. We’re heading into winter now so sunny days are going to be rarities until February. Cheers.

      1. Thank you so much — your words carry the warmth of that sunny walk even into winter’s doorstep.
        How lovely that the joy was shared by so many, like sunshine passed hand-to-hand.
        May the season ahead bring rare golden days that feel all the more precious for their scarcity.

  10. Sorry Lynette. A long 45 hour November 29 yesterday, most of it involving travel back to the real world. I missed seeing your post before we packed up. I love these subtle autumn lake shots, both war and cold at the same time. Have a great Sunday. Allan

    1. Oh Allan, no worries at all. Welcome Home! I knew you were in transit. I hope all went well along the way and you are recovering comfortably from that very long day.

      Thank you very much. Yes, it was both warm and chilly and so great to see the sun again after all that rain.

    1. Thank you, Tricia. I couldn’t believe how much was coming down. Ark weather! You can understand why the ski operators are thrilled. Yes, it was wonderful to experience some sun after all that overcast and rain!

    1. Thank you very much, Linda. It was a really great little weather break! Only lasted a day but I enjoyed it immensely. It seemed like everyone else was determined to do the same. Lovely to see so many people, dogs and children outside.
