  • Summers Are for Road Trips

    I love summer road trips.  My next one will be a camping trip to Jasper National Park in a couple of weeks.  Over the next week or so, my plan is to post pictures from a road trip to Ontario and Quebec in June, 2010. These are pictures from the Women are Persons! Monument in…

  • Maui – Land of Living Skies Part 2

    This week’s theme seems to be pictures of the sky (other than a brief interlude with a post about dogs and Mr. Dressup), so I thought I’d end the week with photos from Maui in March 2011. “Land of Living Skies” is the slogan on license plates here and people say there is nothing like…

  • Land of Living Skies

    It was really hot here today and the weather is supposed to be unsettled for the next day or so.  There is even the possibility of tornadoes around the province.  The timing is uncanny. June 30 is the 100th anniversary of the Regina Cyclone that devastated the city. This is some information about it, I…

  • happy place

    I didn’t plan to post anything today.  My plan was to be at the Roughriders pre-season game enjoying this beautiful evening, but I woke up at 6am with a terrible headache that has managed to last all day.  I toughed it out at work just in case I felt well enough to go the game…

  • Valley of Fire

    These pictures were taken at Valley of Fire State Park near Las Vegas.  I would love to go back someday and take more pictures because the rock formations are so interesting – I love the faces in the formations.  The first picture is my favourite.

  • three photos and a poem

    I’m not a morning person. I don’t jump out of bed, raring to go.  I gain momentum as the day goes on and tend to get more done at night.  However, I was in Maui last winter and found it really easy to get up early in the morning and go to bed earlier than…

  • Green

    Today’s theme is the colour green. I promised myself I wasn’t going to get carried away with the artistic effect, but the first picture was originally somewhat out of focus, and I like how it looks with the effect. Somewhere in Pacific Rim National Park trying to find a hiking trail, Vancouver Island. Underneath the…

  • fun with editing

    So, I discovered editing with the iPhoto app and am now obsessed with the artistic effect.  Here are a few pics I edited using it : New York, New York Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, April 2010 Wascana Park, Regina, Sk, Tuesday night Algonquin Park, Ontario, June 2010 Grand Tetons, near Jackson Hole, Wyoming, July…

  • Rainbow

    One of the prettiest rainbows I’ve seen in a long time…

  • a trio of sunsets

    A trio of sunsets from a trip to Puerto Vallarta in March… The view from the Vista Grill in the Alta Vista neighbourhood of Puerto Vallarta with a spectacular view of Banderas Bay. Sunset sail around Banderas Bay (this was the highlight of the trip for me). View from a restaurant on the Malecon

  • Beach Finds

    A continuation of photos from my Vancouver Island road trip last June.  These pictures were taken at Mackenzie Beach.

  • city shots

    I have to admit sometimes I don’t think my city is the prettiest city.  But, in the summer, it can be quite beautiful and there really is nothing like a Saskatchewan sky. Trying to out-walk a thunderstorm Favourite fountain in Regina Walking around Wascana Lake with a view of the Legislative Building Albert Street Bridge…
