Thought for the day ….

Good Morning and Welcome to Monday the 26th day of September, 2016.

Today is the Birthday of my son-in-law “S” …

Alvin and I would like to wish you the most wonderful day.

See you guys tomorrow night for supper and birthday cake.

The chocolate cake was baked yesterday.

*******************************************************

Forecast for this Monday is 23 degrees celsius.

Yesterday was amazing.

Alvin and I left our house at 11: 45 a.m. and walked past our immediate neighbourhood, past the neighbouring area and into the next one.

It was the most glorious day hovering somewhere around the 22 degree mark.

Just a guess.

It was perfect.

I made certain to take two important items with us.

One being water for my boy.

The other my camera.

I just knew that the leaves would be beautiful.

Never knew about the geese, they were a pleasant surprise.

Water fountains galore.

Trees and grasses.

Alvin taking in the sights as his Momma snaps some more photos. We took several water breaks along the way.

The reds and yellows.

Alvin saw the bronze deer from a distance and began to growl.  I explained to him that it was just ornamental.

He walked up to it as if to say “I got this” and then he was over it. He sniffed and checked out every spot we passed.

We have many of these bronze deer of all sizes in every park in the area.

The one of my shoulder – an odd one.  I believe it happened when I accidentally turned my camera the wrong way.

Really not meant to be a selfie….. laughing aloud.

That is what happens when you are holding a leash, a certain someone’s water bottle and trying to take photos.

So pretty.  I love this path.  The trees are right up beside the path making one feel like you are walking through a forest.

Coming home.  The stop sign is across the street from the park closest to our home.

The flowers in the planters and the wild roses are still blooming like crazy.

Well it was so much fun.  I hope that you enjoy our photos.

I am so glad that we decided to go on this adventure.

We had the best two hours.

Alvin is pooped this evening.

Happy Monday.

Have a great day.

Special Hello to: my friends near and far.

Always, Carol and Alvin
