  • December snow storm

      Most of Alberta today has been caught in its first early December snow storm in which roads were a mess, travel slow or hazardous..... so walking much safer for chores to both the credit union and posting mail.  This city view from Mill creek ravine is fairly typical. The dogs of course loved it and pulled me all the way until we hit the leash free area. Sniffing trees and running on paths were great adventures.  Fluffy snow on spruce and grasses made interesting patterns . Walking in ravine with dogs noted some x-c ski tracks

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.
