Glow

33 Comments

We recently had a very sunny day that started becoming overcast by mid-afternoon with clouds swiftly moving in from the south.

I was fortunate enough to leave for my evening ramble in time to see the sunset before it became completely obscured.

I very much enjoyed the counterpoint between grey and orange as the clouds began to envelop the evening sky.

Now that we’re heading into December the sunsets don’t last long – or may be shrouded by gloom – so I took the time to savour this one before it disappeared and the clouds had their way with the skyscape.

Happy Sunday.

Clearing Skies

36 Comments

We’ve had a lot of rain – and wind, especially – lately, so it was fantastic when the wind started to die off and the skies began to clear.

Our autumn weather has been definitely interesting; most of September was hot and windy with daily temperatures around 35 or so (95F) but then it suddenly turned and became rainy and windy!

Although we’ve had the odd day or two of good weather, the wind and rain have really dominated … did I mention the wind? 😉

However, we are supposed to be entering a stretch of sunny, windless days with temperatures around 13 or 14 (55-57F); very comfortable for November!

I was very happy to go out for my ramble to see the sky clearing … and joy of joys! No wind!

Happy weekend.

Two Lakes, Two Days

24 Comments

A couple of days ago we enjoyed a beautiful autumn afternoon stop at Vaseux Lake which is 27 km (17 mi) to the south of us. It really was nice enough to have dawdled on the beach.

A couple of days later we experienced a different kind of beauty. It was cooler in a very familiar autumnal way and also a bit blustery, but the sky was so arresting with its layered cloud formations.

Happy Monday.
