  • Erin's Senior recital at Con Hall

     

    Attended an evening recital on Saturday of a young cousin, Erin

    who is graduating from Dept of Music, U of A.

    A strong mezzo-soprano voice, with pieces from Straus, Rossi and Schubert, much expression and being graded by her prof in the audience, I thought one of the best moments was congrats from a proud papa!

  • Changing weather scenes...

About me...

An Albertan & Canadian, definitely a northern gal. Social worker by profession, this blog has included some of my work over 10 years in Nunavut from 2002 on. Passionate about slowing down & taking time to appreciate the beauty of the outdoors or kindness in relationships as gifts & blessings; injustices against children in situations beyond their control; my faith; Nature, experiencing the outdoors whether cycling, walking. x-c skiing or gardening, my dogs, capturing on film God's beauty, experiencing life intensely & with the senses, richness of late afternoon light, wind in my hair cycling with my dog on a beach road, couching inches from an arctic flower or alpine lichen to capture it with my camera, insight of a student's new learning, a good conversation over a coffee.
