"What are you stopping to photograph now? It's just more trees." Yep, just another tree. #Photography

There was a time I'd go out at 9 or 10 to party on a Saturday night and be out all night. I just had a glass of wine with dinner. Goodnight. ๐ฅฑ

I've shared that at one time I had lost everything, and had literally nothing but the clothes on my back. And impossible debt. I eventually got a job and an apartment, but couldn't afford furniture, dishes, often food. Anyone meeting me got none of the material camouflage we often hide behind, which can be revealing for both sides. That was the point in my journey I met her. Over 30 years ago. She still catches me staring at her occasionally and asks what I'm thinking about. All...

Sometimes people are surprised that I am very happy with my very modest existence, if they learn that it was once one of relative abundance. They perceive it as a loss that should have broken me, not realizing that after the abundance, I was also lost everything and had nothing but the clothes on my back, before reaching this new modest level of enough. There's a lot of lessons in such a journey.

Arrived home, opened the door and was immediately hit by the blaring music of my wife's impromptu ABBA song and dance party. There was only one way to deal with this.. ๐บ ๐

It's been far too long since I got out early enough to enjoy the beauty of the morning light breaking through the trees. Technically it's still Summer, but the 9ยฐC morning air during this morning's bike ride was more like Autumn, and cooler than the warm sunlight suggested. #Photography

Something to keep in mind when listening to Donald's rhetoric about the failed trade deal with Canada is that nothing he has ever said in office has been factual.

A small young girl walking in the park with her mother stopped to admire colourful flowers along the side of the path. Excited, she commented on how beautiful one flower was in particular. The mother interrupted her and basically said to ignore it as it was just a weed. What? I'm sorry, but if the child says that it's a beautiful flower, then it is. Anyway, beauty comes in many forms.

A surreal intersection of multidimensional existence, at once jarring, yet somehow familiar, when we catch up to a moment and place in linear time that we have inexplicably already experienced before. "That's dรฉjร vu." Sounds familiar. ๐ค

If we don't post anything for a while, people may assume that we're out there doing important things and enjoying life. Of course it's not true, but why ruin the mystique.

Hey Donnie, Wildfires ๐ฅ in Washington state are filling Calgary Alberta Canada with smoke and current air quality is beyond high risk level on the health index. Can we trust that you will be paying for the damage? ๐ค

A few days ago a neighbour at our condo complex said that they saw a coyote in our yard carrying away what appeared to be an orange cat. This evening I saw someone putting poster of what appeared to be a missing cat notice on a pole in our neighbourhood, so I took a closer look. Oh no.. my buddy Simba.

People with implanted cardio devices must be aware of everyday equipment sound, electrical and magnetic frequencies that can impact the functionality of the device and even be deadly. Common things like cell phones, or green electrical junction boxes in the yard.. And a whole list of others that people don't give a second thought about. All dangerous, l requiring serious precautions or outright avoidance. Now image a massive data center in the area.. ๐ค

Time travel is indeed real; Our consciousness does it effortlessly; It's really only our body that sucks at non-linear time.

Thanks for calling me a friend. Okay, I acknowledge that it was a general toot to everyone, but still. ๐ ๐งก
