Here

From the balcony I saw -

It is amazing what one sees here - look at the end of the dock:

Tomorrow I hope to show you what I saw next - photos reduced already! Please write

The Day after the Night before

Minus 15C it was but now it is much hotter:

Snow on the balcony:

That is, inside and out.

The terrace is white - the view around 10am.

(Tudhope Park to the East)

And time to begin my dream of "white water" canoeing:

And the geese are getting fat - they aren't the only beings doing so, unfortunately.

So what does a young man think about after such an event?

I am feeling warmer already.

On a diet

Too many superlatives, Thought I would continue with a little local colour before returning to the wild west, and more mountains, aurora, birds and dinosaurs - not to mention bison, beaver and banding about.

Do any of you want to see my splint? Ok, thought not.

So these images are from the balcony on Monday and Tuesday, local colour as it were.

Lets begin at dawn on Tue.:

The Canada geese have stayed around:

There has been gunfire in the morning. Maybe time to stay off the water and make that long portage to Spring:

Kajak Part II. Ducklings and Goslings

Vicki and I met these ducklings on Tue when we were out canoeing. They seemed to be following me around yesterday. Shots with them heading right were taken on my way out; with them heading left on my way back.

There were enough of them. But I think there were more goslings. Now where they were hiding on my way out I do not know - perhaps they were over at Tudhope. (These photos were all taken within 500m of Panic Point on Thursday.)

Below you can see P-Point:

A few minutes earlier I heard the honking from 51 Canada geese flying north. The "V" was jagged.

I have noticed this in other years but have no explanation - wob
