The rumble of thunder at dusk drew me away from Game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals. I grabbed my camera and tripod and set up with a finger on the shutter button to try to catch a lightning strike before the pending rain.
Got it!
The mosquitos were abundant and hungry in the calm air. Thankfully, I was reasonably well covered and held out for a few more shots before the wind and rain. Here are two more:
Oh, and the game went into overtime! Bonus.
Spring brings a spectrum of colour as flowers burst with life.
The skies around here display a spectrum as well. If you didn’t see my video on Ignace Outposts’ YouTube channel, FaceBook or on The Weather Network (they insert a commercial, sorry)…
just soak in the snapshot below (straight out of the camera).
Here’s my June desktop calendar. Feel free to use it, too.

The back roads are finally dry enough to travel by vehicle. We picked a sunny afternoon for a drive and enjoyed watching this yearling moose poke his nose out of the brush on the side of the road, trot along ahead of us then duck back into cover.
Winter has hung on far longer here than we like. But a splash of colour in my garden gives me hope for spring’s return. This sweet snow crocus bravely pushed through the earth but also a leaf of last years growth!
Just another hobby on the side…
