New Beginnings

We are in the throws of A New Beginning 

 Just recently Lorraine and I (Randal) have change provinces, cities, and home. We moved with the help of relatives and their vehicles. The route was fairly direct by sticking to the main highways. After a lunch stop and a gas fill up we were on the road for 6 hours.    

  The first few days were rainy and wet.

 

 

 

 

 

Then the sun came out to lift our spirits. 

  

 The landscape crew were able to get the front perennials in with a water drip system. 

 

The days seem to start early enough to see sunrises.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So watch for new updates about our New Beginnings.

Photos From The Forest

Wasa Forest can be harvested for multiple uses. 

One of those uses is fire wood.

But as a photographer the forest is an endless supple of images.

So until next time ... 

 Living in Wasa

    We are really enjoying our new home in a small community of Wasa, BC. We arrived in July of 2023 and have seen the summer, fall and winter seasons. All were just beautiful.    

I will try to show you a few images that were special to this feeling of awe.

 

 With winter comes snow and snow removal and snow sculptures.   

Winter also changes the look of the surrounding mountains with snow caps.

Sunset are a fascinating end to each day.

In the yard are many flowers and wildlife to capture on a camera.

All in all we are looking forward to another inspiring four seasons. Please join us.

 

 

 

Until next time remember "Discover It and Live It".

2022 Update

    This blog has been neglected. Here it is November and I have not said anything since January. So I think it's about time I did. One image from the months missed should do it.

February - Winter was still with us.

March - The skies were blue and the sun was warm.

April - Cherry blossoms came out in a delightful display.

May - We had a most spring with clouds moving in on a regular schedule.

June - Summer started to get hot and dry.

July - With the warmer and hot weather came the summer tourists.

August - Brought us beautiful landscapes and family.

September - We say lots of birds and the od snake.

October - We had very nice warm days with fantastic cloud formations and still lots of bugs and birds.

and November - And now with half the month left the weather is turning cooler and the days are getting shorter.

Remember to take the road less traveled. Until next we meet.

 

 

First Major Snow Dump

 Today was a snowy adventure. We had a couple of places to go.  

The first thing was to get out the shovel and clean a path to the car.

The golf cart has had it's cover on for a while now

The Big Red Dually is shown the amount of snow with more to come.

 

So off we went through the deep snow. The highway had been cleaned but not the side walks.

Most of the road traffic was four-wheel drives. So I had to keep my wits about me where I could go and not go.

The first destination was Saffron and the owner had his walk all clean for your arrival.  

Checking that the coast was clear over the snow bank we went. 

The destination took us across the street to fill our lauder for the long winter ahead.

So until next time keep your shovel on the ice and your head up high. Have a good 2022.

A Macro World

 From Chaos to Order Nature offers so much for the soul.

Zeroing in on the details.

In every season, every root, every leave, every seed, there are actions waiting to be had for the next season.

Appreciation for details as seen by a camera brings reality to who we are and to what the abundance of nature has to offer.

What Energy, Space, Consciousness and Choice does my body and I need to have total clarity and ease. 

All this is in nature for all of eternity?

Until next time Remember to "Discover It and Live It".
