"I best shower so I can take you out to lunch!"

March 5th 

" best shower so I can take you out to lunch!" He liked that idea. I had just done a workout in the basement and looked terrible! Off we went. Typical conversation:
"Where do you want to go?"
"Where do you want to go?"

We took a drive to Westport and lunch at The Cove. On the way home I spotted an eagle – not this one (archival photo)!


Mailboxes – a daily ritual in rural Ontario! Since ours keeps getting whacked, we're looking for ideas to brace it.
 

Rivers, lakes and rocks: frozen and unfrozen


I love the view from The Cove!


Ice Storm damage is terrible to the White Pines, from the February storm. They make me so sad, like they have broken arms, lying in the cold, wet snow.



Frosted Shredded Wheat and lots of trees!


Old barns. The tree, in the 4th photo, is growing out of the old silo!

Tripping around the region

This is an archive photo 
–from our backyard!

March 3rd

It was a rather less than stellar wildlife trip. It is impossible walking in the forest. I noticed few tracks on the fields, except for the foxes who trip the light fantastic on the top of the snow.
Terrible walking. What the heck - lets go for a drive!
I spotted a few turkeys sitting in a forest in the sun, but didn't get a drive-by photo.
 It's a good day to hunker down with your friends.

A beautiful, sunny day!
Whoops. Dead end! "Not maintained by the county!"

"Playfairville!"  The Mississippi River, Ontario! Hubby sat in the car, whilst I leapt out to photograph the dark, dark blues and blacks of the river!
