Travel by foot

Posted on May 28, 2014 by cyetso

If you want to find those waterfalls in Canada, you gotta get your walking shoes on. Couple of shots from the hike to and from Nairn falls.

Did that make any noise?

Yes, that river was making some noise –

This rock wouldn’t fit in your living room –

And this little bugger wasn’t giving up. No way, no how –

All in good fun. Just bring those walking shoes.

OH Canada!

Posted on May 27, 2014 by cyetso

Canada. America’s hat. And exceptional purveyor of bears –

Good looking bear. Just hanging out having a salad. Watching her figure I’m sure.

And another thing they’re good at in Canada? Waterfalls! Such as Alexander Falls –

The 230 foot drop of Brandywine Falls –

And a couple of rumblin, stumblin, bumblin, Nairn Falls –

And that concludes our ‘What Canada’s good at’ nature tour for today. But not before one last bear shot. We think it’s the same bear, the following day. You be the judge –

More documentation of the field trip to Canada tomorrow.

Went golfing on Sunday

Posted on May 20, 2014 by cyetso

Only birdies that I had any shot at –

On the first tee at Druid’s Glen. Mom duck was there to make sure the troop was safe. Everyone safely navigated their tee shots, and that was the last, best shot at birdie I had all day.

Dunno what he is

Posted on May 14, 2014 by cyetso

But I like the purple in him –

Probably some sort of hybrid named after the local college team colors.

Or red pawed, as it were –

Just looks guilty, doesn’t he?

This almost never happens

Posted on May 8, 2014 by cyetso

Not to our rhododendron anyway. Despite it’s lack of sun and nutrients, it’s blooming –

Just a couple flowers on ours. Unlike this big bastard across the street from Señor Yatés –

Now that’s a rhodie!

And yes, it’s raining around here.
