Sunday Morning Snow

Not only am I up early on the weekend but I wake up to this. It's not the greatest picture because I really should have grabbed the tripod but it was way too early for any of that nonsense. I haven't even had my morning fix of java yet.

I am so done with the snow already. Please Ol' Man Winter...just get the hell out of here already!

LG Dare Videos Take One



This is the first video I've taken with my cell phone.
Hard to believe I haven't played with this yet.



Black and White setting on the phone. Too many
settings to play around with tonight. Just wanted
to see how basic video's turned out on this thing.




Back inside to get a shot of Squeegy.
Not bad considering there were no lights on in the condo.
Check out Squeegy on YouTube to see the larger version.

Pretty crazy to get this kind of quality off a cell phone.

Possible meteor lights up the skies in northern Alberta

I was watching TV tonight and I saw the sky light up for quite some time. I was puzzled because it reminded me alot of what sheet lightning does. I knew though, that it was too cold for lightening but I wouldn't have thought it was a meteor! We'll have to wait and see where it touched down and if there's anything left of it. That would be interesting. Check out the article from the Edmonton Sun online.

View From The Crib

It's beginning to look at lot like Christmas. Can't you hear me singing that tune? Just taken this morning...our first real taste of what's to come? I suppose so...I mean it is the middle of November already!

Fall Colours


Had to snap a couple pics from the deck here. Too nice not to share. I just love the Fall colours this time of year. Just wish the weather would stay as nice as it has been the last few weeks. What wicked weather for this time of year!

The Morning Sun



I was up early this morning and got a chance to witness a breathtaking sunrise. Grabbed a few shots in my skivvies in the brisk morning air. Please don't picture that cause it really wasn't pretty. *s*

Pigeons Cause Chatter


I was sitting at my computer yesterday and all of a sudden I can here that all too familiar "machine gun" noise coming from Squeegy behind me. Cat chatter. Of course, I looked out on the deck as Squeegy was pinned to the window. A pigeon. Just flew in to check the deck out. Stayed for about 10 minutes and I'm sure it was just to torture my poor kitty. This is not the first time pigeons have made their way over for a visit. They come by often and it's always when the door is shut. I guess they don't chance it otherwise. Good thing too. Squeegy is not the most graceful cat. I'm sure she'd be overboard instantly. Yup...white splot many floors down.

View From The Crib





Just some random shots from the deck the last few days.

Smart Fit



This struck me funny last night as I was enjoying my view and keeping cool on the deck. This Smart Car apparently couldn't find a parking spot so they did the next best thing. I suppose they would get a ticket for this but really they shouldn't. It's ingenious and if more of us had smaller vehicles maybe there would be plenty of parking for everyone.

View From The Crib


Snapped these shots before work this morning. It's common to look out the window and see hot air balloons floating by but they sure got up early to get themselves up and running at that time. I would have preferred sleeping in myself. *s*

Sun Rays

I took this picture this morning. I happened to glance out the window and saw this shower of sun rays beaming through the clouds. It was visibly striking and of course...pictures never do Mother Nature true justice.

Early Sunday Morning




Took these shots from the deck this morning. It's only -4c and it sure has been a nice change from the -30c we were experiencing a few short weeks ago. I never get tired of the view and the sky is forever changing it's majestic landscape before me.
