A charity rally yesterday, bikers ready for the start of the tour. It began in Plantagenet Ontario, and was going to end with a spaghetti dinner in Alfred later in the day. The weather was awesome for the ride, good showing, and hopefully a successful event for the fund raisers.
A cheerful smile and expression makes everyone around you happy.
When you do everything with a smile, not only you but the people around you will feel good. Always remember to put on a happy face. (PL2014.15)
There is a sense of freedom when you ride a bike that I’ve been unable to replicate over the years. I’ve toured before, years ago now, but the feelings that I acquired from the rides has never gone away, I still smile when I see another rider on a touring bike go by. Noted yesterday although there were a lot of couples who rode together on the same bike. Many of the ladies had their own ride. THAT was a pleasure all on its own. I was given riding lessons MANY years ago for my birthday… but I was never brave enough to follow through. I liked being a passenger. =^_^= Spent many happy hours on a Honda Gold Wing.. and a Tiger (Triumph)
Cheers everyone.. make today a day of SMILES…

Many of the riders were from the Hawkesbury Harley Davidson club… sorry there were too many bikers to get a full picture of all participants and the various clubs that participated. If anyone knows or has information, please let me know. There were all makes and models of bikes there.
Saturday
It’s in the air… I even have the urge to do another autumn junk journal or wicked multi media piece. Doesn’t that hint of October that is tainting the air… send a delightful chill up your spine. I see the Halloween stores have already begun to set up. Gotta dust off my broom today….. find my hat, especially now I live with a cat!
Flexibly adapt to changes. The world around you changes, and so do you. Enjoy the transformations and deal with them flexibly. (PL2015.31)

Stop Hesitating
It is more natural for you to be direct and say what is on your mind. Holding back or hesitating is unnecessary (PL2017.27)
The other day on my drive home I saw more than one tree starting to already display fall colours. A sign of what is to come. Fall in this part of Canada is a cornucopia of colour, weather turns a brisk fresh air, with early morning snaps of very cool air that warms to a balmy energizing sun filled day leading into enjoyable star filled nights. Each day is a work of art.

“Now” is always the start of something new. Leave the past in the past. What is important is “what you are going to do now” Using the present as a starting point, move forward on a path towards improvement and progress. (PL2014.24)

Value your intuition – Change your mind thinking “it will be alright” Do the best you can without being overly attached. (PL2021/20)
Temperatures have dipped here the last few days, a touch of days to come. The animals react to the change, their chatter is more insistent, the chipmunks have renewed their determination to gather all the goodies they can find. They don’t come out in the dead of winter, but the squirrels who stay active most of the time, are just as active. The floor of the area where I feed is alive with their movements .. I have to be careful, they are focused.
Even the Blue Jays are being demanding, not waiting, but dive bombing the minute the peanuts hit the ground.
What are your plans for today? Whatever you do… do so with the intent of enjoying every moment of your day!

jeudi -Doors
Beautiful friendships, so appreciated that Thursday Doors has opened up the joy of sharing. Marie Claude is sharing some of her pictures with us taken from her travels in the Province of Quebec…. Look at the bear! What has he discovered? I loved the flowers flowing out from this barn…. and look at the beautiful presentation of the flowers along the barn walls. You can feel the love and the artistry the creators of these views had… they laboured to create a view for everyone to enjoy!
This world is full of beauty and people who share their passion for nature- Let’s appreciate the positives!
Respect the existence of each other.
The world consists of people with different circumstances sand different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other. (PL2023.14)

Don’t ask, I have no idea. It was in one of my folders. I have a rusted tin man in my backyard, I’ve had him for years, I picked him up somewhere in my travels… I don’t know where this one came from, but he is a beauty. Someone, somewhere had a lot of fun putting him together.. Creativity what joy it is to behold!
“Use any results, good or bad, as a stepping stone. All outcomes, whether positive or negative, are important experiences. Let’s use them wisely for our future progress.” (PL2012.10)
Life is what we make it. Always has been, always will be. (Grandma Moses)
This morning I was awakened by “noise” Quincy was being active, then I heard his food being scattered all over the kitchen floor…I tried to tune it all out, but wasn’t successful. When I got up to see what all the fuss was about, he was sitting innocently enough but was intent on one of his toys.. On closer inspection, it didn’t look like something I’d gotten him.. then it hit.. it was a teeny tiny little mouse. Aggghhhhh, no time for eeks and such… I froze in place myself. I’m 5ft.3 maybe, wear size 7.5 narrow shoe… this wee thing was maybe the size of cotton ball.
Quincy was toying with it. I had to act… I raced out to the back veranda and the recycle bin, grabbed an empty cottage cheese container and its lid and came back, Quincy was now batting at the poor thing. I used the empty container to capture the mouse, and took it outside .. it will have to fend for itself in the wet world outside. What a way to start the day.. it wasn’t even 5:30 a.m. yet.
How is your day?
