Every day I clear small obstacles in my path. I must notice them and take extra measures to deal with them, but I manage, no problem. Am I allowing some bigger obstacle to block my path? How can I go around?
I have a purpose for which I am the perfect size, material, and shape. The hand that wields the hammer is with me. I’d better call us some friends.
I don’t always eat sweets, but when I do, it’s usually chocolate. Melt-in-the-mouth milk chocolate for me, although I understand if you want to be all healthful about it and eat dark chocolate.

No matter how you celebrate, Happy Canada Day!
In the early days of rail travel, steam locomotives could only travel forward. Trains required turntables to turn them around. While there, they received “servicing and light repairs.” Where do you go for servicing and light repairs?

Wintry designs on a canal – beyond beautiful, stunning!
I have such warm memories of skating on a neighbor’s pond during a PA winter. Sometimes there was hot cocoa. Thanks for these warm and toasty thoughts from Ottawa, Arlene!
I’ll bet our wintry weather is very different from what you are experiencing. There is a dusting of snow falling this morning, but it’s still not cold enough to freeze that canal! Soon, I hope.
Wow! I’ve never seen that on the canal before! What an amazing phenomenon.
I know, right? I thought I’d seen everything wonderful that the canal had to offer, but it was still full of surprises.
The Rideau Canal was pretty much my favourite physical feature in Ottawa. I miss skating on it every day!
It’s fabulous, isn’t it? It wasn’t open for long this year, and because of COVID we got there only one time, but it was a beauty. Perfect sunny day, -5 degrees C. We skated the whole length and back. There is nothing like it. Thanks for commenting!
Yep, it’s awesome, summer and winter!
