I found this weird cloud (photos 1 & 3) in my neighbourhood the other day. I stopped to take a couple photos but they didn't turn out well. I've never seen such a cloud before. Does anyone know what it's called?

Autumnal Equinox ~ Tuesday 4
Monday, September 22 is the Autumnal Equinox, the first day of the Autumn season.
Autumn is the name of the season and fall is the term for the time of Autumn when leaves begin to fall from the trees. Let's discuss it.....
1. Are there pumpkins or chrysanthemums on your porch or are you planning on putting some out?
No. Most of us in Canada do not decorate for the seasons. We generally only decorate for the major holidays.
2. Are stores around you showing Autumn clothing and decor now? Here in New Jersey, leaves on some trees are changing slowly and temperatures are way down. What is it like in your neck of the woods?
I haven't been in the stores for a long time other than grocery stores and pharmacies. A few days ago, I noticed that the pharmacy has their Hallowe'en items out on the shelves. It means that clothing stores and other retail shops likely have their autumn items out now. The leaves have only just started to turn colour but not much yet.
3. Do you have plans for Thanksgiving yet?
I have thought about the Thanksgiving meal. We'll probably have chicken with stuffing and all the sides instead of a big turkey.
4 . If we can arrange an autumn trip or get away for you, where will you choose to go and why?
I don't much feel like travelling with all the turmoil in the world. DH has been away in Kenya for some business related matters and to see family. I hope he'll get home before long. He didn't want to be away so long but dealing with the government business can sometimes take awhile.
If I did take a journey I would only want to go up country a bit. It's fantastic weather and scenery at this time of year. We call the area the Thompson Okanagan, around Kamloops, Chase, Kelowna. I would also like to go even much farther north to Prince George and beyond into northern British Columbia around Dawson Creek and Alberta around Grande Prairie and Edmonton. Autumn is the best season to see the beauty of the area.
Also, if you click here you can see some posts and photos of the area I've made in previous postings. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

Sky in Mid- September - Skywatch Friday
I took these photos on a sunny day.
The air is now cooler during the day and especially at night despite the sunshine. Sometimes our hot weather can last well into Fall but it's a bit too early to see how things will play out this year.
Rain was expected for a day or two shortly after I took these photos.
Thank you for visiting my Skywatch Friday post.

A Beautiful Day at English Bay
Hi folks,
Today's post is photo heavy but at least there's not much to read, ha ha.
We've been having hot and humid weather this week after a few days of smoke filled, grey skies.
My cousin came to visit. I planned for us to visit the Museum of Anthropology and Granville Island Market but ultimately we decided to go to the public market on Granville Island and to the waterfront in the city's West End by taking an aqua bus from the market across to the West End.
These photos are from the ride on the small ferry boat, called an aqua bus. The ride probably takes 5 minutes or less and has gone up a dollar since the last time I used the service. It's still a fun little thing to do but I always the end wishing it was longer, lol.
