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.

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.

Happy Tuesday.

A smoke imbued sunset above Lake Okanagan from fires to the south of us in Idaho and Washington settles over the valley. If you look at the back of the photo in the centre, you can see yet another smoke plume. I hope that one was extinguished quickly.
Wherever you are, I hope you’re having a smoke-free Friday.

The wind came up and the lake had quite a bit of wave action.
Happy Thursday.
