Friday Photo

Even if I’m horrible at posting during the week, at least I make an effort on Fridays…

Its fun to go through old photos now and again… this one goes back a whopping 27 years to a time when my cousin and I wore matching dresses and danced (? fought?) on the lawn of my grandparents house.

The reason for this memory lane is two fold: I have not taken any photos this week and I am hanging out with this cousin this week!

I’m in Ontario… I’m attending a conference in London next week and took the opportunity to come a few days early and spend time with my Aunt and Uncle in Sarnia and Godparents in London. After a ridiculous red-eye flight, I arrived yesterday morning. My computer and my watch are telling me different times and my body is rebelling against all of them.

My cousin in Quebec (the one above) is back for the week (and other cousin in Kitchener arrives sometime today), so I have been able to spend some time with everyone!

I went down to the beach yesterday, the beach second-closest to my house. There are a lot of steep stairs to get down to water level. When I got there, the waves were crashing against it (it faces south/south-east) and the tide was nearly all the way up. However, the weathered logs and smooth, rounded pebbles were partially exposed and it was fun to walk around for awhile.

Yesterday and today have, so far, been gorgeous. This quick switch kind of pushes to the background the fact that the rest of the last – oh lets say two or three weeks – has been miserable: grey, rainy, dark, damp miserable. These were taken on the phone earlier this week, just to give you an idea of things.

I haven’t taken too many photos this week, aside from ones with the phone. I did, however, download a new app for my phone that changes existing photos. Called “Tinyplanet” it takes a photo and wraps it around in a circle to make a, you guessed it, planet. I took a photo of the Pacific Grace that I took at sunset on Moorea, French Polynesia, and tinyplanet-ized it. The result is kind of fun!
