All dressed up, nowhere to go –

So we went to some park that they named a cup after. Stanley Park. Named after Lord Stanley. As in Lord Stanley’s Cup. They have nice trees there –

 

Stanley Park

 

At which point, we went to the Vancouver Aquarium. Where we were greeted by this group of distinguished ladies and gents –

 

Suits

 

Talk about all dressed up, and nowhere to go….

More later.

Cold in Canada too

Smallish river type thing near Squamish –

 

Canada cold

 

Went looking for the Bald Eagles –

 

Being watched

 

They were watching us more than we were watching them –

 

Another watcher

 

 

Did I mention it was chilly? Beautiful once we got clear of the fog.

 

 

Sinking, slowly

 

 

All in good fun.

Goofing around

Got home tonight, it was cold-foggy-dark. Got the camera out of the car before the groceries and was just goofing around a bit –

 

Goofing around 1

Pitch black, no purple.

Goofing around 2

I love these LED lamps. NOT!

Goofing around 3

Self portrait

 

All in good fun as I explore the camera’s abilities. No messing about with software, just the way they were taken, so the quality may not be there. I’m still learning.

Warmed right up to 39 today with the fog holding all the heat in. I hear that next week we may even see Mr. Orange Ball in the sky???

Off to Vancouver for the motorcycle show tomorrow, plus a couple days R&R. Bryan is gonna gato sit for us. Stop by, as I’m sure the party will be raging.

Ladies and gentlemen!

The BRRRRR is still here –

 

Still brrrrr

 

Although we are now getting accustomed to the BRRRR, it would be nice if it went away.

Please?

I wasn’t kidding about the brrrrr!

This is just a sample –

 

No joke

 

This Summer, when it’s 118 degrees out for the 63rd day in a row, I’m gonna post all of the brrrrr photos I took this winter.

You’ll love it.

 

You’re welcome.

You think the cat was out of control?

There were at least 10 of these guys out at John’s house today –

 

nustcase

 

Thirty degrees where I was standing, probably closer to 10 where they were jumping from. Psycho fools. Beautiful though.

Not like she’s nutso or anything…

These are the eyes of a cat on WAY too much catnip –

 

Psycho

 

She’s lost it. Completely. It’s really kinda fun to watch.

It’s a Saturday, what else would I do?

Sleep like a champion. That’s what my cat did –

 

I got this

 

No, it’s not staged, he does this on his own. He burrows under the covers, lays his noggin on the pillows, and it’s off to never, never land –

 

Never never land

 

Now that is a talented cat. Does David Letterman still do the stupid pet tricks bit?

Cold snap victims

With the cold and lack of light, the shrubbery doesn’t stand a chance –

It'll come back

I think these will too

I think these will too

Give ’em four months or so, and check back with me.
