We took an evening walk …

… and returned late enough to see the almost half-moon rising above the mountains. Since I used my cell to take the picture, the moon’s edges aren’t very defined, but I like the photo despite that drawback, especially the sky’s blue tint.

A recent hike on the KVR Trail above Okanagan Lake produced these autumnal sights.

This rain squall on the other side of the lake did reach us, but we were back in the car by then.

Happy Friday.
We had a heavy rainfall overnight – something that’s welcomed since we still have drought conditions – and the next morning the weather had left a beautiful flat calm as well as clearing views of Skaha Lake.

I love the gentle ripples that entirely covered the lake’s surface.
Happy Thursday.
