The Last Friday of June - Skywatch Friday

The sky is very gray and dull today. But there appears to be a lot going on.

All week workers have been replacing the siding of this apartment building in the photo below. I believe the building sustained some water damage and rot as is the case with so many buildings in this city.




The work is progressing quickly and the job looks very nice!

As I walked about running my errands, I saw that another movie is being shot in the neighborhood.

A lot of people were relaxing in these tents.

I've just noticed the wolf ? or maybe it's a coyote? on the banners.

There's some filming going on inside one of the restaurants near the bright lights.


There's always something interesting to look at when you look up.

Enjoying the Moody Sky During Weekly Produce Shopping ~ Skywatch Friday

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

Welcome to my Skywatch Friday post.  I hope you are having a great week and wish you all a fabulous weekend.

I took these photos on a recent run to buy vegetables up the street (a short bus ride away).

In the first photo I was trying to capture the wind because the trees were blowing around a lot and they were leaning to the left of the photo. My photo doesn't capture it well.

 

I love the cloud formations in the next two photos.


I took this photo before I left my home. This is how the day started. I really love how the mist envelops part of the mountains and the seagull flying near the church steeple.



I always appreciate the gardens other people plant. This beautiful flower captured my attention close to where I went shopping for vegetables and fruits.


Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your visit.

Spring has Sprung - Skywatch Friday

We've had some beautiful spring days this past week. I spent some time gazing at the sky through the blossoming branches.








How is the weather where you are?

The Trees Are Blooming

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

I've been super busy this week so I haven't had time to get out and about. These have photos were taken from my balcony in early evening.

This week nature gifted us with tree blossoms. It hasn't been too warm but still the blossoms came out almost overnight



These macro photos were taken the day after when I went out for errands.







It's still chilly especially during the evening.  During such weather I always love to see the twinkling night lights of the ski slope in the distance. They look so pretty.


Thank you for stopping by to see what I've posted for Skywatch Friday this week.

A Gorgeous Day


Hello friends and fellow bloggers,


Here in my part of the world we will soon transition to Spring and planting season or growing season.  While I'm not so much into planning, I absolutely do love all the new growth, greenery and colour that will be in abundance.





I took these photos on Thursday for Skywatch Friday.  

It was a glorious, sunny day and a harbinger of better days to come though we're going to get a lot of rain, maybe even some snow this weekend.  We need it for our water table.



Happy Friday to each of you. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Skywatch Friday - February 21, 2025

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

Thank you for joining my submission to this week's Skywatch Friday

We've returned to rain which has melted all the snow and warmed temperatures considerably. I couldn't be happier.

You can see from the photos that the clouds look pretty dramatic this week so a lot more rain is on the way. 





Take care and stay safe.

Baby It's Cold Outside - Skywatch Friday

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

We're at the tail end of our winter snow and very cold temperatures if we can believe the weather forecast.

I had to go out yesterday and today to deal with a malfunctioning cell phone. I bundled up as if I was in minus 40 degree weather with long johns and double layers on top, winter books, a neck scarf and gloves. My upper legs and toes were still very cold. I'll chalk it up to poor circulation because I'm usually always cold some people aren't bothered by the weather at all. 

In fact, I saw 3 people out yesterday with bare legs and improper footwear. One person didn't even have a winter jacket on. Today I saw 2 more people who weren't adequately dressed but today felt much warmer than yesterday.

I'm looking forward to rain this weekend because it will bring warmer temperatures.  Right now, the temperature is 1 Celsius and the day's high was 3 Celsius. Last night someone told me we broke a weather record for the day at - 6 Celsius. I tell you it felt much, much colder. Probably because we have damp air.






The above photos were all taken on a walk to the cellular service provider.

Today I took one photo on West Broadway Street looking north towards downtown. You can see some towers in the background.  These are part of a massive rental development project led by the local area First Nations. Once completed there will be new homes for 6000 people and they are sorely needed.
