Waking up, he checks the yard, Feels like snow that freezes, Not quite yet, but blowing hard, Come the northern breezes. News is written on the …

I hope you enjoy this lovely squirrel post from wordsfromanneli. please click on the link above to see the rest.
As we returned to British Columbia from our holiday, we had beautiful weather over the Rocky Mountains before arriving in the Okanagan Valley. It’s not often that such clear weather occurs in December over the mountains, so I felt lucky to see this fantastic sight.
Happy Thursday.
The sunset as we flew northwest was stunning.
The colder air together with the sun’s angle combine to provide spectacular colours.
Happy Wednesday.
And so we’re back in the little fisherman’s cottage in Sal Rei, back where our Cape Verde time began, to conclude not only this trip but also our …
Return To Boa Vista: Playing Crusoe, Eating Tuna And Exploring The Island
I hope you stop by The Hungry Travellers blog (click the link above) as they recount their exploration of Cape Verde; beautifully written and with gorgeous accompanying photos.
As we prepare to leave the Caribbean to return to a very rainy Okanagan Valley via an apparently also rainy Toronto, here are a few favourite photos.
Happy Tuesday. I’ll soon be posting from home.
The storm that passed a couple of days ago was quickly followed by another. I was awakened in the night to what sounded like a freight train outside my window, but turned out to be pounding rain and shrieking wind.
Earlier in the evening, I took a shot of an underlit tree with the rain pouring around it. With the addition of some soap an outside shower would have been completely possible!
On the beach, Poseidon and Triton were whipping up some oceanic discontent. We didn’t stay long and were happy to go inside before the worst came barrelling through!

A gorgeous photo of the Yorkshire chalk cliffs from Stuart Aken. Beautiful!
The storm that passed by us dropping a lot of rain and whipping up the wind has continued on out to sea. It has left a disturbed ocean, however.
This photo doesn’t really do them justice, but these waves were quite high.
The red do-not-swim warning flags were out everywhere, but lots of people were going in the water anyway. The waves coming up on the beach were definitely powerful enough to knock down children or anyone who’s a bit unsteady. We took a long walk on the beach but didn’t swim.
Happy Sunday.
A storm has passed through over the last 24 hours. It’s not a tropical storm per se, but the wind has been strong and it certainly has dumped a lot of rain.
The clouds suddenly rolled in and the wind picked up …
… the rain came down in torrents …
… but we will soon return to clear skies.
Happy Saturday.
We started with sun …
… but as the day went along …
… a most impressive downpour ensued.
We read, did puzzles, and enjoyed watching the bucketing rain.
Happy Friday.
