Photo Challenge Day #27 - After Dark

This is what our house looks like after dark. This was taken about 8:30. Sad to say, less than an hour later the whole house was completely dark. I was the last one to bed and shut the lights off at 9:20. It's not always that early but not unusual either.

Photo Challenge Day #26 - Something Old

I don't really know how old this cow bell is. It came from the H******n farm in Liminga. My father-in-law would be 103 if he was alive today. I don't know if this bell is older or younger than him. I'm not sure when the ringer was replaced with a nut.

Photo Challenge Day #25 - Sunflare(?)

I don't really know what a sunflare is so I just took a picture of the sun this afternoon.

Photo Challenge #24 - A Smile

This is Danny waiting for Molly and Paul to come pick him up for kyds. He was so pumped to be going. He had so fun even though I picked him up too early at 11:30.

That smile is completely gone tonight. The kyds are going to Brighton and he had to skip. I told him to just be happy that he was able to go last night. And be happy that Gretchen said she'd bring you next weekend when she is home. It didn't work. We got home from a wedding at 7:00 and I think he went straight up to bed.

Photo Challenge #23 - Sunset

This was taken back in 2005 at Agawa Bay, Ontario. I just spent way to long on this computer looking for a sunset picture. It's hard to see the sunset from our house with the trees so I cheated.

Photo Challenge #22 - Trees

Trees. When we bought this property 30+ years ago there were three trees on it. It was basically a farmers field. Two of the three trees had rocks piled around them from the farmer clearing the field years ago. The other was a very small oak that is now a very LARGE oak. We lived with those three trees for almost five years until we got our first neighbors. Unfortunately, they were the neighbors from the Black Lagoon. We (Fred) very quickly planted lots of trees along the lot line. Small saplings. Now they are very mature trees and are a very nice privacy block. Those original neighbors moved many years ago and we now have very quiet ones whom we never see.
