JUNE 6TH TO JUNE 23RD

We've had some busy weeks since the last blog
A trip to the pond
A trip to Windsor
A trip to Connecticut
A wedding
The Pow Wow
Two birthdays


Joe brought home 5 wine barrels from Penticton
He is going to make Adirondack chairs

I find it fascinating that one of the baby swans is gray in colour

Such an elegant neck


As I was driving down highway 40 
I spotted this turtle walking by the side of the road
I turned the car around and went back to get a better and closer look!

Oh boy
What a face


I was in Windsor for a few days
My friend Mugan who you all know asked if I would take some photos of her grandbabies




Little feet
Little hand
Little kisses for Mommy


While in Windsor 'the girls' went to 
St. Clair College 
We had facials pedicures and manicures
It was heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Louise Sue Mugan 


Stopped by the pond on my way home

A muscrat pulling a branch


Mr. Frog was there again


It was a gray day
Seems to all blend together


A group of Canada Geese walked across the highway near Sombra
I pulled into a parking lot to get a better shot of them as they headed to the river
This goose was not with the group and as it walked away it was limping
The pad of his foot was turned inward


While waiting for the ferry I watched a 
couple of fishermen 
Instead of the normal fishing boat they opted to fish   from their kayaks


We are now in Connecticut
Walking through Alice's garden


A beautiful beautiful garden


Meet Mr. Boots
The neighbour's cat


David Joe and I went for a walk in the woods


It was soooo green


These vines wrap themselves around trunks of trees
Not a good thing


Ah......the babbling brook


Bing sitting in the window
It's funny......
When we arrive at the Schroeder home the cats know where they are
We drop them off at the kitchen door and they head right upstairs to their room!!!!!








The Denison family plot
Mystic Seaport





We had hoped to take of tour of this home in Mystic Seaport
however
it was closed


If doors could talk eh
Imagine the people who walked through these doors
Women with long flowing dresses
The Captain coming home from the being out on the whaling ship



Palmer flowers


Fishing boat coming in




Flounder

Bass

Baby shark

Off they go!


 Avery Point for lunch

Just about to bloom
