winter full moon
I was looking through my photo library and this was the pic that jumped out at me today considering we are a day or two away from a full moon….I took this on Boxing Day 2012 from my mom and dad’s bedroom window.

If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older -Tom Stoppard I don’t interpret this quote as we never grow up, it’s that we are lucky if we can carry within us those memories of childhood that were innocent, carefree, and full of wonder. I think it’s important to carry that with you…

flowers still in bloom
Back to my favourite subject… close-up flower photography. Really enjoying that my flowers are still blooming (especially when the leaves have fallen off the trees – it’s nice to still have some colour to look at).

Finlayson Island
October’s weather has been nothing short of spectacular throughout Saskatchewan. The petunias are still blooming on my balcony and my cherry tomato plant is still producing – and the number of days I’ve had to wear socks this month is in the single digits! I was in Battleford on the weekend and went to Finlayson…
