Pretty Brittany - La belle Bretagne

Pictures say it all. I could try to praise some more Brittanies beauties but that would be endless. Plus, I already do it enough, I am probably getting annoying to those who know me.
Can I show you though? Enjoy the pictures...

And the fun Brittany

We certainly didn't have time to get bored. Meals only would of been enough to keep us entertained. We spent most of our spare time (read: not eating) walking along the sea, foot fishing clams, shrimps, oysters...collecting blackberries (and eating them too). We did enjoy some motionless moments laying in the sunshine on the beach, on the rocks, along coastal trails.
Two weeks is not long but we did get to see a few friends and family, if only we had had just a bit more time.

Visit from England

Good weather and good company made it for a good weekend. Marianne and Colins two day visit to South Mountain has for sure been a highlight of our summer. I'm still amazed how an English man made my Canadian home feel so much like a little bit of France for a couple days. Wine, petancle and expressive story telling, he does it perfectly. Now just look at pictures of this man, I am certain he spends hours on front of a mirror practicing every single movement and expressions enriching his daily activities.

I have a new camera.....and happy new year...hollydays are over

We went down to Scott and Karen's home in Whitby on Friday to spend a couple days with them. On the drive down Mark mentioned I should go with Scott to Henry's (camera store) over the weekend and take a look. I confess...I a have been looking at reviews and specifications, comparing the best of compact digital cameras for the past few weeks...couldn't help it. Mark didn't really mean only looking he must of meant that by the end of Saturday I would have a new toy. I'm so exited, I just love it....I mean him. Anyway, I love both, the camera and Mark.

Oh seems Like I started playing with pictures...

Ok the rest of the weekend with Scott and Karen was just as great, we had a good time. Fun drinks, fun food and fun fun.

After Christmas comes new year. Emily came to our house for new years eve and we had some more fun with the camera...well, I did. So... photos, food, drinks, it was a quiet evening. We went to bed as soon it can be decent for a December 31 with guests, quickly after midnight.
January first turned out to be a nice day, Emily stuck around for the day, actually she didn't leave before the afternoon of Wednesday. We woke up to snowy weather, one of those days that screams "Winter". It was perfect for a snow shoe threw Terry Spratts woods, down the road. The rest of the day we hung around, had hot chocolate, soup, chatted and took more fancy pictures with the new camera.
