Powder Day

Weatherman suggested a dismal day. He got it wrong :)

Top the Alpine T-Bar at Big White


Decent towards Ridge Rocket


Look back up where I've come from


And a view to the east


Next run down, a little towards the Powder Bowl

Big White

A ski holiday with Al & Colleen. What a beautiful place British Columbia is!

Random view from the Bullet chair lift

The clouds were so close. So soft. So delicate.

Icicle hanging from the Christmas lights.

The Black Forest glades.

Colleen was good at pacing. She never gets tired. 

Al has style coming out the ying-yang. He was exhausted and still looked great!

I was just keeping up :)

Easter Dinner

I was invited to dinner at the house with Maggie and the kids. We had a lot of fun. I took a few pictures. Not nearly so many as I'd have liked. These are more of the "snapshot" kind of photographs. But I like them anyway :)

Maggie, Emma & Tessa working on some silly kid's puzzle in the paper

Emma has something on her mind. I think she's planning Joel's demise :)

Emma...

Joel has enjoyed the joke. What ever it was!

Tessa is running about collecting chocolate Easter eggs



Emma is demonstrating a joke after dinner

I love Tessa's choice of container for her Easter egg hunt

Elora in March

A favourite town. I've visited many times. Used to live here a long time ago. I have some pretty important memories rooted in this town, in this view...
A favourite view of Elora from the North side of the river



An old furniture factory that has, clearly, fallen into disrepair






The Elora Gorge is somewhat famous in these parts. It is very dangerous at this time of year. My hike was probably a little foolish given no one knew I was there.
