The Aspects are Good!!!!

So far the aspects are good for the week of 11.11.11.  In fact I was just out walking on a beautiful sunny Sunday when I saw…God.  Well I saw his car, at least – look I have proof! I didn’t go up and knock on the door.  I just felt that I wasn’t really ready […]

11.11.11…..

So what are you doing for Friday 11.11.11?  Right now I don’t have any plans…but you know how fate has a way of creeping into your “best laid schemes” and turning them on their respective “ends.” Actually now that I think about it I was probably planning to take a little longer lunch and go

Cultures “happen”…..

There we were having a quiet Saturday night dinner, when all of a sudden there were “fireworks” – you know the ceremonial kind.  The ones that you do on Canada day – 24th of May and July 4th. Well, OK we knew it was Guy Fawkes – Nov 5; but did the rest of the

When everything old is new again…..

This picture is for the heading “old” in my photo scavenger hunt challenge.  It’s my mother’s doll. My mother died dancing, celebrating my father’s 90th birthday. She was wearing her sparkly dress, her silver dancing shoes and she looked like a “million bucks.” After the Anniversary Waltz and a fast jive number, she was just

Thou shalt not change thy name…..

I was scouting about for another picture in my photo scavenger hunt challenge, when I walked past the old Chicken Deli now re-named People’s Chicken. Now Chicken Deli was an institution on Mt. Pleasant for probably more than 30 years.  It used to host “The Climax Jazz Band” and a number of other iconic entertainers.

Yes, I can do this…:)

I am now in a scavenger hunt in my photography group.  We have a month to take 18 pictures under various headings.  This picture is for the heading “random.” OK it is not lace, or knitting and it maybe isn’t even pretty; but I spent over an hour with my tripod and even spent some

Hallowe’en…Hollowe’en…

I think that either term applies – Hollowe’en because we hollow out the pumpkins for the “weens” – the wee wains and that’s pretty exciting. It’s a lot of fun to see the children get dressed up and for many adults – it’s fun to be children again and get dressed up. I don’t actually go

Did you hear the one……

So, did you hear the one about the woman who went into the camera store and came out with a $300.00 lens cap?….Well, that really isn’t how it went…sure, we know…. Well actually I lost my lens cap….could be worse.  I know that it will surface one day, after all – A. who would steal a

Roses are red….

I finally found my red rose. It was hiding in the back of the garden, so I am sending it to you.  I know that you would probably want it on a Monday when things can be a little down.  I always feel that you can get through anything on a Friday, unless of course

A Cemetery without soul…..

I mean no disrespect.  I know that cemeteries have a lot of souls in them; but I was walking over to a cemetery that is close to me, to take pictures of their lovely rose gardens, only to find that they had cut back all the rose canes to the requisite 6″ – needless to say there
