A beautiful scene from Stuart’s Forest of Dean collection. Thanks for sharing, Stuart.
Autumn Chillax
As my son used to say when he was a teenager, sometimes you just need to chillax (especially if it’s a beautiful September day). 🙂
Happy Sunday.
A Mystery Plant and a View
When I first saw this plant I thought it was a fake, but then I touched it and discovered that it’s some sort of succulent.
Nevertheless, speaking of plants, here’s a vineyard view from the southern Okanagan’s Black Sage Bench. The grapes are plump and nearing harvesting.
Happy Saturday.
Autumn Day
We had a gorgeous autumn day walking along Lake Okanagan from the village of Naramata.
There were so few signs of the seasonal change that it really almost felt like summer!
Happy Friday.
Japanese Garden Stroll
We took a walk through Penticton’s Japanese Garden.
The water level in the pond had dropped a lot; not surprising considering how dry August was.
We stopped to take a look at the many colourful koi. They expected us to feed them and swam eagerly to the pond’s edge.
Some of them are quite large!
This is a very tranquil garden on the edge of Lake Okanagan; such a beautiful spot.
Happy Thursday.

One of Stuart’s beautiful photos taken near Upwey, a village in Dorset, England.
Decorative Grasses
These ornamental grasses have turned a golden colour that is contrasting beautifully with the blue sky and green bushes.
We’re coming to that time of year when the contrasts will become more and more prevalent.
Happy Monday.
Evening on the Lake
After a mostly sunny day, the weather became overcast, but it was still about 20C (68F) and very comfortable for an evening walk.
We saw this sailboat heading into the Penticton marina for the night, which seemed a good idea to me as the wind was coming up quite strongly. It seems we are getting some residual effects from the typhoon that just crossed the Pacific and bumped into the coast. That interaction is much farther north in Alaska, but apparently, this is leading to significant weather impacts in the south, wind included.
Happy Sunday.
