dragon

tick one more item off my bucket list. meet my forever dragon.

I have been a lifetime living with a mystical dragon who roamed the galaxy .. coming home from time to time to tell of his adventures or to lend support. Yesterday the wonderful tat artist from Brisbane, Australia was back in Ottawa (Samantha Read).. I was one of the fortunate ones able to book with her for this visit. Thank you Sam, I have waited a long time for my dragon to appear. You can see Sam’s work on Instagram,https://www.instagram.com/samreadtattoos/ she travels the globe, who knows you may be lucky and she will be headed your way at some time. Tats are not for everyone, you remember when I got my bee those many years ago. It was a big step for me… but I took it… and with that first step, came many “adventures”. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and found a whole new world of possibilities.

If you’re going to do it, do it joyfully.

If you have to do something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm. By doing so, you will experience a deeper sense of beauty. (PL.2014.23)

Happy start to a new week, make it a happy one!

the setting up for the big Canada Day celebrations

on parliament hill, were in full swing

streets were already being blocked off

hardly a car on streets that are usually very busy

I did look,  I even stood on tippy toes

not a beaver was to be seen

it was early when we landed downtown

on Bank street,not far from Gladstone

I couldn’t resist taking a picture

of these great old buildings

those of you who know Ottawa

know that we are just an oldie but goodie

with history and interesting

architecture to create the ambience that is

lurking behind one of those windows

but.. somehow I doubt it.
