I love Art Nouveau and all things Dutch. Proud Canadian. I’m a new sailor, have a woodworking shop & make fine pens. I’m interested in many crafts, too.

Not a great picture, but it was magical to go kayaking with friends under the full moon.

Foggy twilight at the bluffs. Honestly, at times it looked like dawn instead.

Fog lies over still waters, with the green hills above.

We were at the sail club & stumbled upon this! It’s an annual day of amateur ham radio clubs checking their systems for 24 hrs. It’s dressed as a contest, but is an emergency- preparedness drill. These folks are with the Toronto Amateur Radio Club. They worked with Morse code, voice & digital data.

Checking out the tent holding some of the Toronto Amateur Radio Club members. They were set up on a grassy berm near Lake Ontario, in the distance.

I love the Rosetta McClain Garden.

Light filters through tree branches onto a garden path.

Looking up at the tree branches, light from the side in the afternoon light.

Sunny late afternoon at Lake Ontario.

Looking out on a sunny day towards Lake Ontario. Grasses in the front, light reflecting off the water in the basin, looking towards the opening of the channel to the lake in the background.

I just wrote a scathing view of the possible Billy Bishop airport expansion. What a phenomenally stupid, evil idea. Please go fill out the survey at Transport Canada!

Yesterday was a great day to go wake up the boat. We took off the tarps, then dismantled the wooden frame.

View of the deck of a sailboat still on the hard in early spring, with water and the bluffs behind. It was a sunny warm day.

The club is slowly waking up. Blue sky, puffy clouds & turquoise water. Bluffs behind the water.

Here’s our delightful Etta. She’s difficult to photograph but she’s a real sweetie.

Our ragdoll cat named Etta. She’s reclining in a caret-lined spot on the cat tree.

The willows are waking up!

View of the bluffs over the docks. The willow tree is a light yellow against the darker trees.

The docks are now almost snow- free, with just a patch of ice on the water between the docks.

Foggy day at the club- but it’s much warmer & I think the birds are happier.

Winter view of boat docks with snow & mist.

View of fog & snow on the docks with the bluffs half-hidden in the distance.

A view out the channel to Lake Ontario. The trees on the left kept drifting in & out of the fog.

It’s pretty intense out there right now..

Fun times at Union Station today..

Regional train derailed, looking from above on a snowy day.

Less snow here than I expected, really. But the docks are frozen in😕.Volunteers are working hard in shifts to clear the ice from the pylons in the water.
