I found some very pretty hydrangeas still blooming away in a protected corner.
I love how their colours graduate from pink to pinky white. So lovely and very different from all the Halloween pumpkins that are beginning to pop up everywhere!
Happy Saturday.
During a walk today I stopped to admire the gum trees along Okanagan Lake. They are suddenly turning, but they are turning both red and yellow.
I love how interesting and lovely these trees are in their variegated autumn dress, but they won’t last long and have to be appreciated now.
Happy Friday.
Some recent sights from my walks.
Happy Thursday.
While walking last week, I passed some underbrush that was full of little quail. But because they are so quick and blend in so well, it’s hard to get photos of them.
I was only able to get this shot, although I stood watching their busy busyness for about 15 minutes. They’re very adorable, if somewhat elusive!
Happy mid-week.
I enjoy stopping here to watch the ducks or to see if I can spot any fish.
No fish to see this time but it’s always a very tranquil spot.
Happy Tuesday.
… both human-made and natural.
Happy Thanksgiving weekend. 🦃
… or is that coated tree? Not sure, but some of the artists at the nearby arts centre enjoy clothing a tree in lots of colourful winter attire.
Greeting’s from Penticton’s fashionable (and warm!) trees.
… with a stop to admire the view.
Happy Thursday.
It was a bit hazy (at least not from wildfire smoke!) but there was still a great view down through the southern Okanagan Valley to Lake Osoyoos and the U.S. border from a winery we like to visit.
Although somewhat overcast, the weather was nice, quite comfortable and the view fantastic.
Happy Friday; happy weekend.
I love how warm, calm and clear the weather can be during autumn.
A walk along the east side of Okanagan Lake was lovely. People were swimming and enjoying the perfect temperature.
We saw signs of seasonal closures – ice cream and snack stands; people winterising their boats – but there were lots of other examples of people enjoying the weather, too.
Wherever you are, I hope you are having good weather too.
Happy Wednesday.
