Watery Wednesday

Dressing leaves in Waterdrops is like dressing in a beautiful gown and going out on the town!

It's the bling that brings the whole outfit together!

Not much fun to go out in the pouring rain, but it pays after the rain stops!

You can get the best drops!

Raindrops are like little microcosms each on thier own. I love them all!

Watery Wednesday

Hello and welcome to Watery Wednesday. We have had all forms of precipitation falling in the past few days, but it is the rain I am  looking forward to. The snow has mostly melted, the hail didn't break my skylight, although it sure sounded like it would. The freezing rain made the roads extra slick and could not see the Black Ice until the car started to slide a bit. Now the weather is warming up overnight and the rain is coming tomorrow. I can handle the rain!

These whimsical statues are located outside of the Vancouver Conservatory. In the rain!

The statues depict three tourists posing against the backdrop of Vancouver.

The male tourist with the bushy mustache!

The third of the tourists. It was a rainy, gloomy day but still a good day for a photograph!

The photographer getting set up to take the shot.

He sets up his photo, his settings are right, and he snaps his photo.

Hey wait, how did I get in there??

The Weekend in Black and White

About five weeks ago, my daughter made the decision to move from here out to Eastern Alberta. It seems like only a few days ago she told me of her move, and now the move day is here.

Just like the mirror, things are really closer than they appear. This date just arrived so soon.

It's like a bridge she is crossing over to a new chapter in her life, the path leads to a new life and its hard to see on the other side where that is going to take her.

I am driving with her in her car out to Alberta and will help her move in to her new place, see where she is going to live and get a feel for the area. We have never done a road trip before, just the two of us so this should be fun. Bittersweet, because when I catch the plane back home in a week and a half and leave her at her new home, I know I am going to be sad to leave her and am going to miss her a lot. That will be the bittersweet of it all. It is a great opportunity for her out there, I could never stand in her way of that.

So the next few entries to my blog will be of our trip. Stay tuned.....

Watery Wednesday

Watery it is today, it has been pouring rain most of the day.

I am not too unhappy about it either because it is washing away all the snow that fell last weekend. I would much rather deal with the rain than with the snow. I am all for green Christmas!!!

If you enlarge this photo you can see the trees behind captured in this waterdrop! This was taken on the back of one of the park benches in the park behind our house.

Skywatch Friday

Our home area and surrounding countryside has been hit lately with lots of snow, more than is common for this neck of the woods. After a month of constant snow and record snowfalls, the temp warmed up and it started to rain. Now we are all under flood watch so I thought because my hubby and I went out searching for floodwaters I would post some of those with the sky today here for you all to see. Some areas still have a lot of snow that needs to melt.

It is a rainy gray sky day today as you can see. This field is not hit too bad with flood water.

This looks more like a lake than a field.

Heck, it even has waves!!

Another side of the road picture of a field today.

Rain!!! Goodbye Snow!

Rain Rain,
Come and Stay,
Make all the snow
Go away!!!

It is pouring out finally just like the weatherman promised. I've been waiting days for it!! I am so done with this snow and ice it can all go down the drain!!
Just have to pray it does not flood.

Man, I have to get out my camera and dust it off. I miss it!

New Year here.

Why shouldn't the new year start with a fresh white coat of new snow?? Even if the weatherman has not predicted it.
So glad I did not have to drive to work today. So glad I made a mistake about my schedule yesterday and discovered upon going to work that in reality I actually had the day off today. I got to sleep in until 11am. Hard to believe but I think my white knuckle 90 minute drive home on a sheet of black ice took a lot of energy out of me. I am tired of the white stuff. I have not seen the grass in a month and that is very unusual here for the monsoon rain forest (Okay I exaggerate) I live in. This white stuff does not belong here.
I am counting the days until it warms up and starts to rain and rain and rain here again. I promise I won't complain about the rain. I promise!!
