ABC WEDNESDAY--"A" is for (not an) ACCIDENT

Not an accident. Just chillin', since he must be 'all done in'....  Tired from the lines to go up the Space Needle!

See other As on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY.

This is why.....

Several of you have written to ask why I haven't begun to post again since my last post in (May!).

The above photo is partly why. There are two missing grandhildren and my whole family is here in Seattle until Aug. 7th.....then back to Belgrade where I really will begin to post again shortly after my arrival.

Thanks for your concern, and check back!

Taking a break....

Taking to the skies again.....won't be posting for two weeks or so!

SKYWATCH--sunset in Montreal

A tiny flashback from my trip to Montreal last week.

See other skies on SKYWATCH.

The Stumbling Monk

Always intrigued by names of pubs....  This is in Seattle, but such names abound worldwide.

ABC WEDNESDAY--R is for Recreation

Originally I planned R for 'rowing,' but he's paddling his board here on Green Lake in Seattle. So Recreation it is.

See other R's on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY.

Blue in Seattle

Looks blue and has hair to go with her mood....

La Poutine

The hearty dish many Quebecois love to it is poutine (poo-TEEN).  The classic version (in the photo closest to you) is with fries, nicely seasoned gravy, and cheese curds (sometimes some sort of cheddar, but often a mozzarella-type cheese).

I couldn't very well leave Montreal without trying one, and as you might guess, that's the only big meal I had that day.  In the background you can see my friend chose a more elaborate one, and she ate it all.....

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--the apple

This apple ('une pomme' where I am in Montreal) served as a model for me one morning.

See other shadows on SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--the photographer

This shot could almost be anywhere where there's a body of water, but I snapped this photographer in Montreal.

SKYWATCH--The Jacques Cartier Bridge

Quite impressive, this Jacques Cartier Bridge that I've crossed over several times in Montreal. It was opened to traffic on May 14th, 1930.
