Dripping, drops, and splashes

The interesting thing is that sometimes we call these “drips” and they annoy us like crazy – like when they’re dripping from a leaky faucet. Sometimes thought, the last drop is exactly what we need – like the last drop in the bottom of a water bottle on a hot summer day. Or sometimes we throw a few splashes on our faces to freshen up or wake up when we’re dozy.

Water’s a pretty versatile element when it comes right down to it.

And Stones

This is a trip down memory lane for me. I took this photo on Pelee Island in early summer, when I was there doing research for an oral history project.

I wish I had more time to spend on Pelee. I’d live there in a heartbeat if I could organize my life to make it possible. It’s definitely on my someday maybe list.

Not sure what to do with your piles of old National Geographic magazines? In Windsor, Ontario we use them to wallpaper the bathroom.

I think it’s awesome.

Daytripping in Leamington

Take a daytrip to Leamington, Ontario. If you’re coming from Windsor, just hop on Huron Church Rd and follow it after it becomes Highway 3. In about 40 minutes you’ll see signs to turn south into Leamington’s downtown. Stock up on local produce before turning around and heading home. One of my favourite shops is Lakeside Bakery on Erie Street near Seacliff Drive.

Misty Moisty Morning

It’s been misty the past few mornings and I’m starting to notice the nights are longer and the sun rising later. This is my favourite time of year. Now if I can just guard against catching the nasty colds that are going around.

Leeloo

I’m getting to know Windsor photographers and their subjects! I saw this one in a random search for windsor + ontario + bird and I recognized Leelo right off the bat!

Enjoy this last weekend of the summer. The weather’s getting cool but it’s not too late to go for a stroll by the riverfront or in your own backyard. It’s worth it.

In the Trees

Windsor still has a bit of green space left. On the far west side, bordering Lasalle, Ojibway Park is home for this deer. If you’re quiet (and lucky) you could see it too. For anyone interested in bringing home some green, Ojibway is having their annual native tree and plant sale this Saturday. Contact the centre for more details.

Getting Out

Candace — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 12:13:08 +0000

It’s getting cool but there’s still time to get outside for a walk, jog, or run. Dress in layers then you can peel them off as you warm up. It’s worth it for the fresh-ish air before winter comes and we’re shut in.
