Still Blooming

When we arrived home September 17, some flowers were still blooming, so next day I went out and picked this bouquet.

Right now we still have a few in the house, but we had a hard frost September 30th. So that is the end of everything.

Today I picked corn and froze it and gave some away.

Oct 3 we plan to go to Chuck and Michelle's for an early Thanksgiving. Then they will come here Oct 17th for a late Thanksgiving.

Beacon Hill Park, Victoria BC

Sandy and I saw this beautiful bright blue flower in Beacon Hill Park Victoria. We took pictures of flowers there and at Ellen and Peter's near Elk Lake.

A Unique Flower

This unusual flower we encountered when we visited my friend from school days; Ellen and her husband Peter. This was in one of two greenhouses.

They have a yard that is like a mini Butcharts Gardens. Beautiful and a lot of work.

Sandy, Judy and Ginet

We visited my friend, Ginet in Sidney, BC

We spent a few hours in the new and used shops, and we stayed for supper. On our way home we visited my brother, Dave and wife, and their Brazil exchange student, G. to say goodbye to them. Vases are a lot less costly in Sidney in the used stores than they are in Edmonton. I got a really nice green one with grapes on it.

Ginet also gave me a beautiful tea cup I had been looking for. Thanks, Ginet.

Fishermen's Wharf

At Fishermen's Wharf, James Bay, Victoria, BC we saw this seal puppy. We could stand and photograph him from the dock.

Trip to Victoria

Here is a picture of me with my friend, Lynne.

They live out of Victoria in the Langford-Millstream area.

We had a great day--it was very warm that day.

Sandy took this picture.

I forgot part of my information and could not get on my blogspot yesterday
