Farm Fence

 

I think this fence needs fixing...

Sunshine

 

Late afternoon skies,

 ....sunshine after a dark day.

Wilderness

 

Some say that the wilderness is anything more than

20 minutes from a Tim Hortons. 

Here we have a view of both worlds.

Country Road

 

Country road... take me home.....

Mowing

 

At the Sod farm - mowing the "lawn" on

a beautiful November day.

Mountain Range

 

We never tire of these views of the Four Sisters.

Blue Skies Ahead

 

Heading home on a beautiful November day. 

 Mt. Baker gives us a beautiful backdrop.

Country Dreams

 

The area of Ryder Lake lies above the valley

and the surrounding views allow you to believe that you are far away from the busy city life. 

 However the busy valley is just a few miles away.

Fall Scene

 

Another angle of Mt Cheam

Wowing Factor

 

Mt. Cheam gives an impressive backdrop to any view. 

 It's almost November and still no snow on it's peak

My Garden - A shade of Pink

 

A cheery clump of pink mums

brightens the fall garden

Stellar View

 

Outstanding view of Mt. Baker,

highlighted by the late afternoon sun.

My Garden - Chrysanthemums in BLue

 

Chyrsanthemums in blue. 

The flowers are vibrant and full of blooms this year

because of all our lovely sunshine.

Colourful Blueberry Fields

 

 

Colourful blueberry bushes enhance the mountain view.

My Garden - A Splash of Red

 

An exciting splash of fall colour....

 

...dark red Chrysanthemum.

 

 

Abandoned

 

An abandoned barn has it's own charm.

Towards the Light...

 

Close to Mt. Robson

we see a glimmer of brightness.....

 and fresh snow

on the mountain tops.

 

...and then I had fun with the photo.  :  )

Rainy View

 

Approaching Jasper in the rain has it's own beauty...

On Top of the World

Seeing for miles....

Autumn....

 

Enjoying the autumn colours.....

Yellow

 

Different shades of yellow add a pop of fall colour

to the trees

 on the Alberta prairie.

Beautiful

 

Mt. Robson

Evening Glow

 

After a warm, muggy, May day....

 

...and a rare thunderstorm..

 

...we were able to enjoy

the glowing evening reflection...

 

...of the setting sun.

A Visitor

 

Look who visited this morning...

(so glad I wasn't working in my garden)

 

...a blur running in our back yard..

 

...while I took a photo from the safety of my back deck...

 

...and the deer watched from the neighbour's hill.

Heli-logging

(It's hard to take a good photo in the early morning haze)

 

The view from our front door....

...we could watch this helicopter carry logs

from the steep hillside down to the logging truck below.

 

 

If you look carefully you can see the line from the helicopter

 attached to the log far below....

 

...and he quickly flew another log...

 

...and one more log....

(He resembles a little mosquito)

 

....and another ....

 

.....and one more log.

I think you get the picture now  : )

Cloudy Skies

 

The partly cloudy sky dominates this photo

of the level fields...

 

...which lie between the forested mountains.

(It's sure was handy to have

my little point and shoot camera with me)  :  )

Farmer's On the Go

 

The farmers are busy emptying their manure pits...

 

...and fertilizing their fields....

 

...a sure sign spring is here.

Yellow Cheer

 

Our Leopard's Bane has been blooming it's heart out

for weeks now

with it's cheerful little yellow daisy like flowers...

 

...a wonderful reminder of my mother's flower garden.

 

...and the Pansies love the spring weather as well.

 

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Living Gardens

 

My hubby was hard at work today.  : )

 

The fresh bark mulch in the gardens

make all the plants  seem to pop...

 

Yes, spring is here...

 

..and all the gardens are coming alive.
