Coffee Break
I worked the weekend, so I’m off today and thought I would tackle some spring cleaning projects (ie. organizing my storage closet where everything I didn’t know what to do with this winter ended up). My reward for my efforts was enjoying afternoon coffee on my balcony where I get full afternoon sun. (I took…

fun with KitCam
It was a beautiful, sunny, cold day here and I had the day off. As much as I’m tired and uninspired by the snow, I thought I should actually take some pictures as it is now officially being reported that we’ve had the most amount of snow ever in this city – 196 cm (or…

Clouds
I love my balcony because it’s a great vantage point to take pictures of the sky at any time of the day. I was going through my photo library and re-discovered this one that I took in September. I never get tired of taking pictures of the sky and now that its getting warmer and…

blue skies
As I write this, we are in the middle of another snowstorm. I’ve lost count at how many snowstorms we’ve had this winter. It’s getting to be a bit much… I took these cloud/blue sky pictures on Saturday which was a much nicer day! This is what it looked like downtown this afternoon…ugh… I will…

through the clouds
I’ve been on some pretty cool drives in North America – Maui’s Road to Hana, the Beartooth Highway outside Yellowstone, and Port Alberni to Tofino on Vancouver Island. They all are amazing in their own way and the drive between Banff and Lake Louise is no exception. Banff will always be one of my favourite…

Sulphur Mountain
Pretty drive up Sulphur Mountain to see if the Banff Upper Hot Springs were re-opened (they weren’t). I really like the way the clouds and the trees look in this picture. As a travel tip, there is a nice hotel called the Rimrock Resort Hotel across from the Hot Springs. I got a really good…

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…

Mammatus Clouds
A continuation of my last post – I’m still fascinated by these clouds that appeared after the brief storm last night. I’ve never seen anything like it! It was such an eerie, awe-inspiring feeling to look up at the sky.

like a little kid
I feel like a little kid tonight. My new camera arrived – a Nikon Coolpix p510 – I was so excited to open the box! I really enjoy taking pictures, but I’m not ready (nor can I really afford) to spend big money on a camera. This one was highly recommended, and is in my…

Clouds
Watching clouds roll by on a sunny day… Who needs church? Nature is divine. -Carrie Latet Many years ago when I was a summer student working at TransCanada Pipelines, I was part of a crew doing a corrosion survey of the pipeline in southwest Saskatchewan. Basically, we were walking along the pipeline, a mile at…
