It's Our Birthday

It's Canada Day, and we celebrate our 159th Birthday. We aren't perfect, but we do pretty well, eh?

Come late June, Sue festoons the garden with all sorts of mini flags.



On one of my night snacks and reset saunters, this is how one of the pots, looked to the camera.


This gif turns Sue's arranging into a dance. Can you learn that step: right foot back and forward again, left foot slightly to the side and raised just a bit.


Happy Birthday to us.

As a bonus this morning at 6, I looked across to my monitor. It was showing a streak of sunlight and also the sun. I’ve never seen that before. I shot from my chair.

    Happy Canada Day you-all! So much color in that second shot! Wowser! The dance of Sue shall become the next two step, if it makes it down south enough. Loved your sunrise shot, very unique!

      I should never trust Alexa. She gives me the wrong weather forecast too!
