You almost got a twofer last night, but I got sidetracked then I got tired!
Thank Goodness you say!?
There's not a crafty thing in sight, so you can quit reading now if you're so inclined!
The title makes me want to use a stamp I have that says "Whatever you are be a good one."
It's been hectic for some reason this week, maybe cause 2 of my 3 bosses have gone on holidays!?
Here's the sunrise one day this week!
I know it's Spring because the geese, crows & swans are back.
If only the snow knew, and disappeared!
These swans are pretty hard pressed to find some open water!
Earlier this week they refused to co-operate for the photo shoot!
Yesterday they got their stuff together!
This is how we rednecks in Northern Alberta take a walk in Spring!
This is the driveway at the beginning of the week.......
This is the main road......North.
Main road.......South.
These are my boots at the side of the road.....I changed into my shoes!
The road's dry, the driveway's not, and my new walking shoes are suedey leathery things, that probably won't like the mud and water!
Ray had to fire up the tractor last night to clean some of the snow at the top of the driveway, cause I'm having trouble getting in and out!
6" of slush plays havoc with my van!
I saw this moose trying to hide one evening on my way home!
There are 2 hanging around in the hood!
One has ticks really bad, and one looks pretty good!
I'm off to the movies tonight.
Tomorrow night is a fundraiser for one of the churches in town.
Dessert & Silent auction!
Pretty sure there'll be something there I can't live without!
Next week is a crystal party at one of the gf's!
Again, I'm sure there will be something I can't live without!
Yes, I'm at work.
Yes, they've gone & left me alone!
And YES. it's coffee time!
I started this in the middle of the night, and uploaded the photos!
Better go, have some stuff to finish before I go to town!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Such a great bunch of photos. The swans are gorgeous. Can I steal "borrow" the pic for a card?
Since when are moose shy? Poor guy with the ticks. How can you tell? Is the coat all patchy or what? Sunrise is lovely; roads not so much.
Doing good here.

Wow Gail these photos are stunning and also is your card x
Alrighty, you CAN tell when a moose has ticks, and sometimes they're so bad, they'll die.
Here's an article on that from Alberta Sustainable & Resource Development/ now that's a mouthful!

Always great to see photos of what is happening in the Great White North! That poor moose ... wish they could immunize them for ticks and fleas. Poor guys must really suffer. The swans look like they are besties.
FABulous photo's Gail..
I'm one of those gals who LOve to take a peek...
Would have loved to see you 'staging' your boots lol..
I've enjoyed them....Thank You x

Sadly Chrissy, I didn't 'stage' my boots!
That's exactly where I took them off to put my shoes on!
Shadow had issues about leaving them there on the side of the road, and I fleetingly thought about someone driving by and picking them up; but we don't have a lot of traffic on our road!
Please, never stop posting your pictures. I love seeing them all. Happily, we have no snow left and I am in gardening mode.
I have not made a card since November and my stash is getting very low. I really have to get my crafting space organized so I can get busy with that when the weather gets aweful again, and it will :-).
Today was lovely but I was stuck doing security duty at our Spring Craft Fair. My little granddaughter is in gymnastics and the club provides security for this event. Thought I would help out since my daughter is away for the weekend taking a course for work. It turned out to be fun because I visited with a lot of people I don't see very often. As soon as I finish my supper, I will be back out in the yard. There are a lot of dandelions here that I am pulling, one by one. Good exercise lol.
Myrna popped the question that was on my mind, too: I was thinking I might need to come see you NOW if you get close enough to the moose to tell whether they have ticks or not! I'll read that article as soon as I'm near a reliable internet conneciton again... We were supposedly going to have 25° CELSIUS and summer today but guess what: it's as grey as ever out there and maybe 10°. I know... you wish...
Really beautiful photo's, I love the sunset and the swans and it's fabulous to see pictures of a moose (we don't have any here) thanks for sharing them with us
Lindsay xx
How did you like the movie?? I'm looking forward to seeing it myself. Gorgeous shots of the swans - they look confused with the snow, lol!! It must be so cold still for you guys. Brrr!! Stay warm and dry!
