Lahaina Public Library
Since my brother and sister-in-law are off to Hawaii this week, I’ve been going through my Maui pictures and dreaming of a tropical paradise. Maybe I should apply for a job here. I’m very well qualified. And the Pacific Ocean… just around the corner? I don’t think I could get used to to that at…

a good book
A good book is a good book, wherever you are reading it, but a good book enjoyed while sitting outside is one of my favourite things. These are pics taken during a trip to Cypress Hills this past summer when I was taking a break from reading at our campsite. The book I was reading…

Battleford, SK
A few photos I took on my Christmas vacation…. Now on to one of my favourite months – January! Really, I do like January. Calling it one of my favourite months might be pushing it a bit, but I don’t hate it! (This is a relatively new thing, I used to hate it). Yes, it’s…

My Favourite Places – Mackenzie Beach

My Favourite Places – Banff
Since frigid temperatures are negatively impacting my photography hobby lately, my next few posts are going to be about some of my favourite places. A couple of days ago I was looking at pictures from a trip to Banff in October 2012 so I’ll start there. I could easily place Banff in my top three…

Taking A Chance
This is one of my favourite pictures I’ve taken this year… (but it almost didn’t happen)… My birthday this year was a significant one. I wanted to mark the occasion by doing something I’d never done before and by going somewhere I’d never been before. But, once I booked the trip with Ocean Adventures to…
