Typically ice leaves the lake in front of our place some time between late April and early May. We eagerly await this change.

I {heart} hearts
This fall just as the lake was beginning to freeze over, a couple of branches collected frozen bubbles and formed a heart!
Last spring, I almost stepped on to this frosty heart just outside the door to our garage.
And I noticed this heart in a birch tree late last summer.
To me these are little messages of love from my Heavenly Father.
Happy Valentine’s Day.

Wasn’t the John Scott/NHL All Star story inspiring and entertaining?
That emotionally satisfying event combined with the heartfelt comments from so many of you regarding the absence of desktop calendars (and the need to have something on my own desktop), motivated me to whip up a desktop calendar for February.
For simplicity sake this is an image I have used before and I did not set a specific screen resolutions. If you find the size doesn’t work well for you, please let me know. I will gladly make adjustments if they are requested.
Your input is important and very much appreciated.
The Creek
Agimak Creek is my ‘go to’ place when I need a pretty shot. The birches that line the trail along the flowing water never fail to look good. It is one of my favourite places and thankfully, only a short walk away from my home.
Happy March.

Not your typical blue sky
A late day combination of rain, snow, sun and cloud make for unusual hues of blue. The yellow of fall birch is enhanced by low sun on the moist leaves.
Feb 2014
I can hardly wait to turn the page on the calendar hoping the conditions in my environment ease up. I can hardly remember a colder, windier winter. Am I getting soft in ‘my old age’? Whatever. It’s been COLD!
I’ve mentioned before how wind is not my camera’s friend. It’s challenging enough to get still subjects in crisp focus! I realize there is potential for artistic shots with movement and all but sub-zero wind chill is not anything I wish to endure for that opportunity. So, having not been out with my camera all but one day this past month (see previous post), I looked back into my digital library for an image to serve as backdrop for this month’s calendar. Happy February. ❤
