I recently had the good fortune to attend a Tigers-Astros game. Although Jose Altuve – the best second baseman in the majors – went oh for four and the Astros lost 5-3, it was a decent, entertaining game and a very enjoyable evening.

I was in Sarnia Ontario recently to attend a two day First Aid class. The class was held two blocks from the waterfront, so during lunch one day I went for a stroll and came across this sidewalk between a parking lot and the waterfront.
I’m not sure what the city designer/planner and/or engineer had in mind, laying this sidewalk out with two 90 degree turns and a 45 degree turn. It would seem to make more sense (and cost less) to have a straight sidewalk between waterfront and parking lot.
I cut across the grass, as more than a few people seemed to have done.

Wheat harvest season is done. Bales of wheat straw await their turn.

Under a majestic early morning sky, tractors and grain bins await the days’ harvest.

I was too slow to capture this Blue Jay before it moved.

Morning fog softens a barns’ lines and angles.

A most marvellous sunrise.

We spend most of our relaxing time in the backyard on the deck. Sometimes, though, we settle in this spot, which provides a completely different perspective on our humble little garden.

Our good boy, our treasured companion, our Fitzi.

Back on Thursday.
Prospecting for pollen, a honeybee mines a coneflower.
