A nice walk

Well we were in Esquimalt today for a meeting and took advantage of the nice day and went for a nice walk before the meeting. We ended up at Fleming Beach and ate our lunches right at the last picture. It was such a lovely day and enjoyed the nice calm sea. When was the last time you were at Fleming beach? tell me below in the comments section. I'm still trying to get you to comment here

Time changes a lot

At first this seems like an odd pic. But this is taken just one house away from ours. You see we have been in our house for just over 25 yrs. So this pic is the old street and the new street.

I was walking by this today and thought when we moved in here it was all just like the top part of the pic. No sidewalks, Only one street light on the whole block and no it wasn't this one or at this point. And you notice the bus stop. Yes we have bus service now too. So when the kids were walking to school there was no sidewalk for them and when they adventured farther there was no bus close they had to walk for a good 20 min to catch a bus.

And we even have a garbage can now on the street. I wonder what is next?

But the deer are still here in record numbers.

Ok till next time

Just in the neighbourhood

Well just out and about the neighbourhood today doing errands in the local shopping area Goldstream Village. Remind me to send some pics of the new additions to Goldstream Village.

Anyway there crossing the street were two ladies walking two Llamas .
Hope you enjoy the pics. I know it was interesting to see sights like these when you least expect them.





Well till next time

ERROR

Well I haven't seen it yet. But the new statue in town, The one at Belleview and Government streets, has a typo in it. It is of Emily Carr plaque. Can you see the error? Look at the picture of it here and see if you can find it. And then follow the link to the article in the Times Colonist and read if you were right or not. Ok all you editors lets see if you can spot it.

Happy Thanksgiving not what you expect

Well this Thanksgiving weekend didn't really happen the way you think. First of all on the Saturday we went for our shots for our upcoming trip to Mexico. And I thought no prob. But on Sunday I didn't feel that well and my shoulder was really sore. and on Monday it continued but then felt better at the end of Monday.
Then we invited my brother over for dinner on Sunday for Thanksgiving and we didn't have the usual Turkey dinner. Instead we BBQ some nice steaks. Yes we were thankful for all the things and people that God places in our lives and we celebrated that.

On Monday we headed up to Nanaimo and meet up with my cousins and we went to a special beach we spent a lot of time at when we were young and I planted the tree that I had from Prince George. I got it at the BC Horseshoe pitching Championships which I won , so I wanted to plant it somewhere special. And this was the first place I ever played horseshoes. So that was the spot. Hope it survives.


But while we were having our lunch at the beach there. I bit into a candy and broke loose a big filling that I just had put in about a month ago. Sharp edges , have to see the dentist tomorrow.


So we headed home on the Highway and guess what. 20 mins. away from home on the Malahat the traffic stopped. There was some kind of accident and traffic not moving. Well when this happens it can be for hours. So we turned around and drove to my sister in laws place in Shawnigan lake and spent a hour or so and had coffee and tea. Then when we headed home the traffic was all gone.


Well How was your weekend? Did it happen as you planned or anything different or new?
