Window day

Yes i have new windows.

3 in fact, they have been sitting in the garage for a while but now they are in the windows. they went in really fast, Mathew was great , he and his friend Carl and my room mate Wes put all three in in 4 ours flat.

The were easy too take out. Next weekend Matt will do all the trim, inside and out as well as the trim on the old windows they didn't get trim 2 years ago. i 'll have matching windows.

Then we had a BBQ well i had to feed them all. so we had some salmon. I wrapped it in tinfoil with lemon juice and fresh parsley and a little Italian seasoning , and stuck it on the BBQ. It was wonderful, along with a glass of wine

and life was good.

Just arround my street.

Balane hill road, just for a comparison from what 5 days ago. The weather has turned, no more sunny skies, cloudy and a thought of rain. My street looks great right now. full colours are probably today 13Th September. Some trees have their leaves departing already

the New Morris Thompson Visitors center, and the view across the river.We have this little pond. I am not sure what it will do come freeze up

Now i was thinking of doing another series of freeze up but it might be boring , its only about a week and i can take photos of the river from work

My Long lost Garden

These were taken on august 24 , I know along time ago. I have had the most wonderful tomatoes crop i have ever grown. ( last year it was 4 tomato plants and 4 tomatoes) My parsley the tall stuff is going to see and i have so much of it dried and mint well i have been giving it away to everyone at work till they are sick of it. rosemary was OK, enough, but i only gave a little away

the cucumbers must have got cold some were along along the line but i had a wonderful crop , i lost count at 25. i have 2 pepper plants ( on the right beside the mint)and this week they seem to have fruit , not sure if they are going to be large enough to eat, there maybe more photos next week on that. as of today we still haven't had a frost.

Summers' done

I am done waiting tables, summer is over. yeah !!! this doesn't mean to say that i am done with being busy. leaves are falling everywhere and the greenhouse needs closing down, let alone picking tomatoes. i have some baby peppers that i need to photograph for you.
and tomorrow is window day. I have a friend coming to install my new windows i bought earlier in the summer. the will be photos tomorrow. and a BBQ to organize as well.

September 5

Got invited out for dinner last night. Just had to take the camera the colours are just great, there is quite a difference in 5 days as well
the trees in my yard a somehwat slugish at turning , but that is ok

Schmaps York

well the exciting news for today is that the Guys at SCHmaps from England , welll York , decided that that did like me and i now fall into the famous catogory of a published photographer.
yes my "york city walls" made the grade. I have a published photo , and yes i am going to brag about it. http://www.schmap.com/york/sights_panorama/p=156551/i=156551_24.jpg

I realy ought to get my s... together and book my tickets for vacation back in that direction. i am sure there will be more of that coming up. i have a but one week left of the waiting tables at the wedgewood , and then i will have lots more free time. booking tickets to London / Greece will be on my list.

Earlier this week i thought i was going to get sick. wednesday i was all blocked up and sneezing , then thursday was even worse. so i gave the boss warning and today i actually had a sick day. the first day i have had off work sick in 8 years. I slept till noon and took a nap this afternoon as well. Sleep is a wonderfull thing. and lots of vitamin C to go as well. I'm much better this eveing.

Farmers Loop rd colours

I went fora drive up Farmers loop today going to a freinds place , it was a lovely day again. i even remebered to take my camera. so for your vewing pleasure of the fall colours.

the under growth colours are equally good, the fireweed is dieing off and turns a wonderfull red.

Fall/ autumn is not yet at it full colours we sahould have a week or 9 days to go. more next weekend.

The trees arround my house are alot slower at turning so there will go more quickly at the end of the week maybe.

But i still have 10 days of work at the second job and it s dark at 9 30. Taking photos during the week is tough.

these ones I thought came out really nicely.
