overcast & rain

It’s okay! God is watching over you. Things turn out for the best. Don’t be captured by momentary troubles but continue doing everything with sincerity.

A note. I have been walking now with an app for about 3 weeks, today I achieved the 100K “medal”.. That felt rather good to read that on the app. I try to do about 2 miles a day. Why it is giving me the medal in K. I don’t know. But.. it sounds good.. It will give me the incentive to keep going.

Even though it was raining, I kept a steady pace, and actually incorporated arm movements, and high knee stepping into the walk. I wasn’t distracted by “picture taking” or using my walking stick(s). There are benefits to walking in the rain! =^_^=

I found out today, the little cut out there along the side, is where the baby turtles can leave the shelter when they are ready to embark on their journey of life. Seems the mother turtle, once she finds a place to drop her eggs, simply moves on with her life. ( see previous blog)

Tuesday

Many of us have had a lot of time alone this past year an a half, not that we are or were lonely, simply life changed. Now there is another change, school is out no more on and off switch there, restaurants have started to reopen, mostly patios are ramped up, I see many restaurants have now got patios where there was only a nod to one before, a few have actually built decks the length of their restaurant (where they could do so) Others have roped off a section of the parking lot.

Everyone is trying to recapture what was lost. (When and even IF they can) Reality check, we can’t go back to relive what was. Even if our physical surroundings change .. Our friends, neighbours, co-workers, ALL have been affected in some way by the adjustments we ALL have had to make over the many months, weeks and days. We ourselves if we look objectively at what our lives have been like and our thoughts over the past months. Many of us … have discovered or rediscovered a part of us (our inner most thoughts) – Once you’ve gone through a door, what was behind that door, it is no longer a mystery.

Perceiving equals doing. Each time you notice something, it is a gift from God. Don’t miss this opportunity to act.

pretty textures

I managed a few pictures of the sun and shadows that played amongst the ground cover on the forest floor. I confess to giving in to the hoard of biting mosquitos that swarmed all around me. This is the first time they have managed to get up my sleeves, and /or bite through the flannel shirt I was wearing. My arms are covered in bites/welts, I will be taking allergy pills for the rest of the day.

I have a video that I somehow took while capturing the pictures I got this morning. Try as I might I don’t know how to size it so it will show up here. You can actually see all the activity of the mosquitos flying back and forth around the lens of the camera. If someone out there also on WP can offer a suggestion I’d appreciate your comments. What I have is 1:48 minutes long. In the past I just insert and it has copied, but not today.

Tell yourself “Things happen” Even if something is inconvenient once you accept it you will be able to move onto the next step.

oops

Too many subjects, and no one wanted to just sit still. It was hot, I didn’t make it before 8, but I did get there around 8:30 maybe.. already the birds were getting ready for their siestas.. they were lazily drifting, sunning, winding down, there was a breeze but not much to speak of. The squirrels and chipmunks were like bandits coming out of the greenery at every corner to see if you had anything for them. Some were very bold, actually thought one or two would step on my toes.

I left the area, and was not 10 minutes away when the sky opened up and it began to pour. Not just drizzle, it rained hard and furious. Lasted maybe 15 – 20 minutes and then it stopped. I wondered what the residents of Mud Lake would have done .. when the rain began. If they are drifting along with the current, basking in the sun, and it begins to rain… do they care???

Enjoy the moment while you wait. Things come about when they are meant to happen. Think of what you can do for the time being, and don’t rush the outcome.

Black Rapids -Parks Canada

What a treat. I last visited here, a LONG time ago, I remember my Dad bringing me here so he could take pictures. Back then it was a whole day’s journey to get out to this location. People came with picnic baskets and to fish. while they watched leisure boats come through the locks. Now from downtown, 15 minutes maybe.

When I heard that today was going to be a scorcher with a very high humidity factor, going into the woods was not going to be an option I was going to consider. Along the water I thought would be my best location for pictures and my walk. I’ve reached my next level of accomplishment on my health tracker app. =^_^= so far today I’ve done 1.5 miles. it’s just after the noon hour.

Energy springs from your smile. A smile makes you and others cheerful and energetic.

Note. Parking is not free, it is $1.00 and hour, maximum $4.00

What I saw was a lot of cleared area for picnics and family gatherings.. Tables are spaced well apart. There must be good fishing, several guests arrived after I arrived for fishing. The people I saw, had picnic hampers with them, and folding chairs, they were there for a good spot of leisure fishing.

Easy to find, drive out Prince of Wales, keep going, past Hunt Club, and before Fallowfield. It is on the left, you will see the sign near the road.

From the highway looking down the laneway you take, you will see the old gate keepers house. Staff are friendly and there are facilities there for when and if they are needed.

walking in the rain

Textures come alive in the rain. I thought should I bring my camera, its pouring, I’m glad I did.. I hung the camera inside my vest pulled it out only to get the pictures, and then dropped it back inside under cover. I imagined a quilt of different shades of green using the textures of the plants, leaves, branches.

It was my first time to consciously take a walk in the woods in the rain. I put on my Bogs (wet boots) wore long sleeves, sprayed my hat, scarf, and sleeves with heavy duty insect repellent. yes did my socks and jeans, put on a kind of wet spring type jacket over me and took off. Even brought my walking stick.

I wish there was a way for you to hear the singing of the birds, they were so happy, there was another car that came along so there were other humans about.. but.. none on the boardwalk.. it was glorious. The air was alive with the singing and calling out of the birds… I didn’t see any near or around the water, but I certainly could hear the chatter. With the steady drizzle there were no snakes trying to sun themselves on the boards either.

I know you can’t see the wet drops, but I hope the pictures give you the feeling of how peaceful it was.

I feel so blessed to have been given the gift of good health, a way for me to get to these wonderful places, and the incentive to follow the inspirations that come my way.

Morning stroll

meet my little hairy woodpecker Photos by Bjoern Rost

Silly how one bird can make your day. One photographer Bjoern Rost, can make it even better. By the time I got to the bog, I was running late, I’d already walked at P23…time was limited, I asked Bjoern who had just arrived, IF he was able to get a picture of my little “princess” could he send it along to me.. Et voila, I got more than one, you can see the little woodpecker in all her beauty. yes, to me, she gets my attention more than the blue jay who has also been hanging around. Ok yes there are other birds.. but this little one is the one I spoil. Thank YOU Bjoern!

Tomorrow 31st (calendar)

Don’t think overly about people. Instead of being excessively concerned about others, focus on what you should do.

Misc. Sunday

Do things joyfully instead of taking it easy. enthusiastically engage with what’s in front of you. You’ll enjoy it more.
Perfect Liberty 2021.30

Good morning everyone, I wanted to repost a blog from a fellow blogger in Japan. I loved his blog this morning, it talks about Shinto in Japan, and how in building and in ancient tradition, there is a belief about the supernatural beings who live in the forests, woods, and on the lands. I grew up with similar teachings in the Taoist tradition. The reblog didn’t work this morning, please if you would like to know more, follow this link..https://covingtonandsons.com/2021/05/30/salt-rice-sake-and-prayer/#like-47483

It is a long week-end for you in the States, please enjoy the day whatever you are planning.

For us here in Canada, we are starting a new week- please stay safe, be well..

Reminder, June 1. we will have a 10 a.m. service at church (1st of each month, Day of Peace ceremony)

This morning I will take my cell so I can clock my steps/mileage for my walk prior to morning service.

a familiar friend

just couldn’t get him to turn around, delighted to see him tho’ conned me out of sunflower seeds

I had seen that there was a clearing up off the trail I usually walk, when I climbed the incline to the clearing I found anther of these wood “tents” and two other possibilities.

Wholeheartedly do what you notice, when and how you notice it.

I didn’t think about it, I saw it and decided to check it out. Had I simply noticed and moved on, I would have missed the other possibilities that I now will have when next I visit this location.

Be present, live in the Now!

Some days, when the skies are the clearest of blues, the feathered clouds wisps of angel white, the trees and surrounding vegetation are an array of, every shade of blue/green/yellow, AND the air is filled with the fresh lavender like scent of new growth -it is nothing short of perfection. Today I walked through the most heavenly scents – I looked for lavender, lily of the valley/ lilacs….. saw only the bog and the plants growing there, but ohhhh the intoxicating aromas were “mind blowing” I would have loved to have had someone with me who could identify what it was that I was enjoying so much. (one plant did look like lavender??)
