Waiting for Santa

In anticipation that Santa Claus will drop off some new water toys this Christmas, Jim prepares to make his chimney opening just a little bit larger. I just hope Jim put up some non skid as well so that the reindeer don't slide off the roof.

Don't forget about the final Columbia Ridge Christmas Craft fair this Saturday from 10 till 2 at the community hall. You might find that something special that you couldn't find anywhere else. Tom and I have been busy in the pottery studio and plan to show our wares at the fair so come on out and check it out.

Sunshine in the Valley

Today was an incredibly stunning day. A sneak snowstorm had laid a blanket of snow down overnight turning the valley into a postcard moment by morning. Only 2 cm fell but it was enough to turn the greys and browns into crisp blues and whites. I tried to get out in the morning and capture it on film but wasn't too successful. What I was successful at was just getting out period. I enjoyed watching the sun come up over the mountain as I pedaled around the neighbourhood.
