Visitors

There was frost on the pumpkin last night! This morning the roof tops are white and it is a sign of the 'white' that will soon be coming. It isn't even Oct 31 yet! They say it will be a long, cold, winter with lots of snow. I am not sure where 'they' get all their information! Don't really mind the snow, especially since City Council have agreed to plow to the pavement this year and keep the side streets clean. That will likely increase our taxes again - but we will be happy - at least during the snow months!! Current temperature is 1 C.

We had John's brother, Fred and his wife, Faith, from Ottawa, here overnight. They were up to visit his mom and we were fortunate to have a quick visit with them also. Since they were so already so close, their daughter  encouraged them to go Vancouver and visit so their plans changed. It was a last minute decision but those are usually the most adventurous and fun! They return to Ottawa on Sunday.

All of us
This time of the year really brings on the beauty of sunrises and sunsets. I have not been running around with my car capturing them but here is one out my front window of a beautiful sunrise two Sundays ago.


Unusual yellow brightness before sun popped out

Beautiful pink and purple sky
They say a picture is worth a thousand words so I guess I have used up my portion for this morning!
