I adore visiting Francis King Park. I don’t know who Francis (is?) was or why there is a park named after him but I am so thankful there is! Every visit fills me with a calmness one can only find when surrounded by the sounds and sights of nature. (And it’s a bonus that our dog gets to run freely to her heart’s content!)

Here’s an excerpt:
A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 980 times in 2013. If it were a cable car, it would take about 16 trips to carry that many people.
For the second night in a row, we’ve had cool clear weather. This amounts to frosty bits all over the place! This morning’s frost was heavier than yesterday’s and reached further into those slightly sheltered spots of the park.
Although we don’t have cold weather (I heard the wind chill in parts of Alberta was in the -40’s C) it was still cool enough to generate some frosty bits last night. Here’s what I found this morning at the park.
What better way to keep warm than chase a ball with a friend?! (Mine’s the black one out in front…the whippet in her makes her speedy!)
As it’s Halloween I tried to stay with the theme of the day in this post’s title. That being said, these drippy leaves were just too gorgeous to pass by, so I think it fits.
It’s Thanksgiving weekend here and we took advantage of the sunny Saturday afternoon to do a little hike at Francis King Park; one of our faves. Happy Thanksgiving to you!
I adore autumn. The leaves changing colours, the brisk mornings, the rushing winds! I especially love the dewy spiderweb mornings like today. Enjoy!
I found a few peacock feathers during my visit to the Victoria Lavender Farm near Sidney, BC. They made for some interesting shots.
Nothing recharges the soul like a walk on a foggy beach, with a puppy of course!
