I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

Busy days continue...

September 17, 2025

This stretch of warm sunny days we are experiencing, is perfect for getting on with winter preparation. We did have a touch of frost one early morning. 

Apple-ing:


 
 
Canning:
Picking:


 
Finding: 

lots of acorns...


 and loaded down apple trees.
There shouldn't be any hungry bears this fall!

Another trip to Ottawa. 

Golden Lake, a bank of mist rising, on a cool September morning.

Visiting the Arboretum at the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa. 

What an amazing collection of trees have been grown here. This large oak tree was at the bottom of a somewhat steep slope, but above and behind the photographer is a very large grove of many, many different trees, many unfamiliar. 


Within the area dedicated to maple species was the largest Sugar Maple I've ever seen.
This amazing looking tree was in the W.T. Macoun memorial gardens.

A beautiful place to visit, well worth a trip in every season of the year.


Here are some visitors to our place.
