Two lovely photos from Stuart. 🙂
They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.
from For the Fallen

Beautiful photos from Stuart. Be sure to take a look at the second one – a tree growing from a boulder! 🙂
Many of us are covered in snow right now, so a pretty remembrance of summer seems in order. It will be coming back around.

Such beautiful autumn colours from Stuart!
This post was first published in early December, 2017. I love these photos and thought it was time to show them again. Have a good weekend. 🙂
Here on the edge of Great Slave Lake, where I am north of 60 degrees N latitude, I feel like I am living inside a winter post card.
The light here is diffused by the sun’s angle.
We are only getting about six – seven hours of daylight now but the landscape that comes into view is spectacular.
The sun peeking through a layer of cirrus cloud.
At night, there is also a light show.
The Aurora Borealis.
At two in the afternoon, the sun is getting ready to go down.
Frosty trees, warm light.
The light and colours are here are almost monochromatic, and very restful.
What does your winter look like?
Say hi to Annie, probably one of the most adorable bear cubs ever.
Annie decided she wanted to come to Canada, so she waited her turn at the border crossing at Stewart, British Columbia – Hyder, Alaska, and then lined up to be processed by Canada Border Services.
However, poor little Annie didn’t have her papers so she was apprehended for the winter by Northern Lights Wildlife Services.
And a good thing, too. At 10 kilos (21 lbs) Little Orphan Annie is much too small for her age. She was born this spring, somehow lost her mother, and has been trying to find enough to eat ever since. Normally, bear cubs stay with their mothers until they are about 18 months old.
At the wildlife centre, she is apparently doing well with the other rescued bear cubs, and is eating lots and gaining weight.
The full article on this sweet little bear is here.
Welcome to Canada, Annie. 🙂
