I found these beautiful red bushes glowing in their fall mantle. I don't know what kind of bushes they are, but like most things in life, they're just passing through, gifting us with their colour before they're gone. Happy Fall.

Too Gorgeous
We recently visited Twin Falls Gorge Territorial Park not far from Hay River, NWT. The river was very low from the dry summer but the falls were still very impressive. It was an invigorating visit - quite cool at only 6°C. Winter is approaching quickly and yes, it will be cold. Be we will also…

That sentiment is reflected in this appealing and charming set of sculptures. Great summer fun. In the northern hemisphere, summer is drawing to a close. British Columbia…
Wordless Wednesday Flowers

They produce a dry white that goes with many meals. It's very mild and damp in the winter and very hot and dry in the summer.…
Shadows
Sometimes we have shadows. They help us stay cool or they lead to the light. Sometimes we have shadows. They sit in our hearts or they lead to the night.
