My Doctor’s office is a couple of blocks from my favourite beach. Today he told me to go home and rest until Wednesday so I sneaked to the beach on the way home. Sebastian beach is never too busy and there’s always something happening there. Today, the sea lions were feeding on the herring that […]

A Tiny Creature With A Big Heart
When Joel and I first brought Ozzie home from the SPCA, I thought we had made a mistake. I had never owned a Siamese critter before and she meowed and paced and raced around all night. During her first week with us, she had two vet visits, one because she had sprained her front paw […]

Does anyone else feel like summer is going by far too quickly?
Popup Libraries Are A Thing
I have noticed, recently, that there are a few more popup Libraries in Nanaimo. I love it. We drop our used books there and pick up a few more every so often. It’s fun. And it makes a lot of sense. What’s wrong with giving something away? Why do we have to donate it to […]

Barnacles
I’ve never seen so many in one place. Certainly not on a ladder.
Making Planets
I made this little garden planet with the “Living Planet” app. It uses a complex formula to swirl a photo into a globe shape. In the most recent app update the creators added a lot of editing tools. I’ve been really enjoying the app. It takes a bit of time to learn how to compose […]
The Island Of Nanaimo
I’ve discovered the app called “Living Planet”. It’s amazing. A new surprise every time. It does take a while to discover the right composition formula for photos and then you’re off and running.
