Last day at work...YAY! and Booooo!

Today is my last day of work. I live in a small tourist town, which means we rely on tourists to line our pockets with gold. ( yah...right! ) This shortage of work, will have me on the dreaded Employment Insurance for a few months until all the travelers start traveling again. ( goooo travelers! )

What shall I be doing?

Will I be thinking of new adventures?


Will I be running and playing?


Or will I be...


Maybe I will be lazing on the couch?


Maybe I'll go to the river and hunt for heart rocks!


Go for walks....


Warming myself by the fire?


Someone will be along any second to play ball...I know that!


Will I walk through fields?


Will I be able to shake things off that bother me?


Will I be melancholy?


Or serious?


All of the above! But mostly, I'll be looking at the world in a whole new light...


All these photos are of Jack, my bestest friend in the world. ( edited to add that Jack passed away this past February )

I'll be doing all of the above! As well as less important things. Like painting my bedroom, cleaning the wall areas where wet and dirty dogs have muddied them up, buying brackets to put shelves on walls for my books....all sorts of less important stuff.

I'll definitely be getting back into beading, I missed that during the past few months.

But most of all, my daughter-in-law Sumeet and I are wanting to start our own business which we need to get to work on. ( I'll fill you in on that later! )

K, I'm off to make myself beautiful for my last day of work! Ha!

BAHAHAHA!!

Japanese Friendship Garden - Hope, B.C.

This Japanese Friendship Garden, is in my home town of Hope B.C. and was built in 1991. It is dedicated to all the Japanese-Canadians who were sentenced to internment camps during World War 2.

Internment camps prove ( IMHO ) what public hysteria and racism can do.











Lovely, but sad all the same.

Fall colors

Fall is my second favorite season. I love the colors, the crisp smells, the putting to bed of nature for winter, by Mother Nature.

The Lily in my garden is flowering!! With these chilly nights, I am astounded.....


Click on the photo below, and if you look closely you will see a tiny drop of dew falling from the white in center. Cool!

Next years peas!


And beans!

This morning I went to the garden, and, well, I am sad. Shriveled up cucumber leaves...

But a couple of brave cuke soldiers are fighting the cold....



SNOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

OMG....I LOVE winter. Now that is my favorite season! Oh wow, I get all excited when I think about winter walking and how utterly gorgeous and peaceful it is in my small corner of the world...* grin *
