Each year, I have a complete break from the internet. It recharges my batteries and gives me time to reflect on the world as it was before we all …

An Autumn Whisper
I took a very enjoyable walk near Great Slave Lake and realised that it’s now autumn.
I can’t put my finger on what is different, but the sun is different, the air is different, the clouds are different and the tone is different.
Warm, windless and lovely, the day seemed to be taking one of its last deep breaths of summer before its sound and heavy rest; I felt as if it was holding off winter with one hand while gifting us with these few remaining hours of perfection.
Carpe diem. 🙂
Lake Walks
I took a lovely walk along this arm of Great Slave Lake.
There is some outflow into it, but it really is a sort of minor fjord.
It was a pretty day, but Great Slave Lake is large enough to create its own weather, a fact that came home to roost today with a deluge that lasted more than an hour. Unfortunately, there was no walking.
Happy mid-week greetings from Canada’s (now) sunny north. 😎
A Great Big Lake
More views of one of the world’s largest lakes …
… with old logs that are slowly disintegrating. Off to the right, out of the camera view, is a lovely sand beach; many people were picnicking or sunbathing. The day was a perfect temperature with enough wind to give the lake a little wave action.
Right now I am in quarantine, but I am allowed to go outside for walks as long as I am distancing. I think I might spend a lot of my walking time along this lakefront!
Have a good week; stay safe and well. 🙂
And a special shout-out to Kenny: some sunny Great Slave Lake photos for you. 🙂
A Lingering Lake View
This morning I am leaving the south and heading back to …
… the north. Because of my work requirements and the safety precautions around covid, I’m not sure when I’ll be back.
Due to the travel, my WP visits may be sporadic for the next couple of days, but in the meantime, have a good weekend and enjoy this lingering summer view. 🙂
August 5’s Wordless Wednesday (Almost)
Happy mid-week. 🙂
Okanagan Lake
A few days ago we took a ramble high above Okanagan Lake.
On small land benches overlooking the lake, wine grapes have been planted. It’s perilous to reach some of them but the combination of sun, heat and humidity often produces rather rare varieties such as carménère.
I don’t know what grapes are growing there, but I hope they do well.
Greetings from the beautiful Okanagan Lake and its luscious wine grapes. 🙂
Monday Marvellous: Chute Lake
We recently took a little trip to Chute Lake, which is on the east side of Okanagan Mountain in British Columbia.
We took a lovely walk and crossed a bridge where Chute Creek joins Chute Lake.
Cheers from pretty Chute Lake, everyone. 🙂
