Fall Walks

The mornings are getting frosty but you can still see water (in its liquid form) in puddles beside the road. This photo was taken from the deck of a listing we have in Springbank. $2,249,000. What a place, check out B's Blog link for details.


High winds around our town lately. This old tree in the Weasel Head was snapped off. The wind has come barreling down the fairway pushing our breath back down our throats. The leaves has hung onto the trees for the most part but the horizontal winds will strip them naked by this time next week. I don't think we have ever had a Thanksgiving with leaves on the trees in Calgary.


Intrepid hikers...Bryan and Erin.

Always travel with your coffee...that is the Glenmore reservoir in the background.


Refreshing, I guess, But Ginger would do this in the depths of winter too.

Tempting to go in for a silty swim.

The creek itself is low but the colours of fall are lingering. I havent seen the colours in the east but there is a softness to the muted greens and yellows here in the west.


This swamp might look familiar to anyone who has wandered through Fish Creek Park at Voitier Flats.

Evening on the Bow. Soon enough the chill winds are bringing snow. We can smell it in the air, but for now, the fishers on the water and the ducks and geese are lingering on the edge. Often, we can get lucky and see a deer on the island.
