It took Me Not As Long This Time

To start off Danie it is the Chaleur Mall that is being torn down....

Well it only took me 10 days this time to get these photos up... not bad in my book... We had a little bit of snow today but nothing to talk about which is good because my older sister invited me up for dinner this evening and I always enjoy her cooking also it means that I don't have to figure out what I am going to make for myself tonight... that is a plus...

I noticed this one the way up to town and was surprised that I had not noticed it before because I have only been driving this road for the last 11 years more but that is how long I have been behind the wheel... this little place is behind a house along my road... and you all know how much I love old buildings... I wonder if someone actually lived in this one... I was tempted to stop and ask the lady that was outside watching me snap the photos I took of it but of course I didn't... but it actually looks like it has a little garage attached to it...

The men were in to put in a new electrical panel in the house so I took mom down to the house to help make some homemade chicken soup... then invited Pat to join us... we are sitting around waiting for slow poke to show up for lunch... that is Dad if you didn't know...

The bears came a calling this summer and really made a mess of my feeders so I had not put any feed out for the rest of the season... then I noticed some moose birds (gray jays as Carl calls them) hanging around and thought since there was plenty of seeds in the house I should fill the winter feeder up... and low and behold what came a calling and have been showing up in the morning and at dinner time are the blue Jays...

All the other trees have lost their beautiful colors and only the oak tree in the yard is still dressed showing off what it still has..

We have such a hard time to get photos of the woodpeckers through out the summer but on this day it was sitting in the middle of the seeds having a grand time throw out the seeds that had already been eating looking for some full ones... it sat there for about 10 minutes until a blue jay came looking for its turn.....

You can always tell when I didn't get a photo for the day when I drive into my yard... there is one of the plants, trees or the clouds.... today it is the clouds... but I was trying to get the sun rays coming through the thick clouds but it didn't come out really good on this picture... will have to try again...

And then there are those days that I walk out of the house leaving the camera sitting on the computer desk or in its case and come home to realize that I didn't take one photo that day... and that is usually when Miss Maggie and Mr. Kodak comes into play... Maggie spends a lot of time watching me as I click away at the computer while Kodak has this on never mind what she is doing attitude... after about 5 minutes or so they are both in la la land nothing caring what I do as long as I don't get off the chair... lol

I went back in the Dollar Store to get popcorn for the ducks so I can get some photos of them but instead I got more sea gulls then ducks... going to go get some cracked corn if I want just the ducks....

Well thought I would let everyone know that Mom and Dad decided to move... the house is getting to big for them, they are rarely upstairs and they really can't keep up with it especially when none of their children want to help out... so this is their new place....

just big enough for a bed LOL.... actually it is where the generator for power outs is going to be... thought I would do a funny.... he he

Well that is it for now... see you next time... and have a good one...
