An old friend of the family, Don Cousins from Saskatoon, passed away yesterday. RIP Don.

In the early afternoon, I drove to Sherwood Park to watch Dawn's granddaughter Piper play indoor soccer. That was a fun experience and I got to again meet Dawn's ex, Richard, the grandfather, whom I had not seen since 1992... He is a very nice guy and we got along really well.

Then I just watched sports until it was time to try to catch today's full moon. Miss Debbie had invited me to her downtown 13th floor apartment to maybe get better shots and it was worth the effort, although I could have gotten the same shots a block from home.

I gave Miss Debbie a spare camera and accessories that I has re-inherited, in much better shape than the exact same camera she was using... It is nice to have someone who shares the same hobby and needs some semi-expert instruction.

She baked some cute Hallowe'en figurines. Photo below.

I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.

Thursday, I ran over to Save-On in the car to grab a few groceries. I spotted both red and green cabbage for 99c /lb, so I grabbed 2 reds. When I got home and looked at the bill, I saw that they charged me $3.95/kg so I went roaring back on the Gio. They claimed it was an old sale and they had yet to remove the sale tag, but they refunded me almost $6 anyway... It has yet to be credited to my card though...

Friday, we were getting taste of cool fall weather, with single digit C readings, rain, and darn cold brisk winds! Really miserable!! Luckily, the chance of snow or sleet did not materalize here, although Okotoks, Calgary, and Wetaskiwin saw snow..

Today, I woke up like my nose was running for office and would not stop. Thank the Lord for NeoCitran to help me make it through the day. I need to get some more, and soon!

I picked up Miss Debbie to go meet Miss Tracey at a Capital Tattoo Halloween Bash on the south side. Tracey was getting a bat tattoo done above her favourite Ozzie, so we hung around for 2 hours until that was completed.

They had a much smaller crowd than they obviously expected and I had to kill the time taking photos of some of the neat items on the walls. Miss Debbie was dressed like the Addams Family spooky daughter and got the Best Costume trophy.

I then drove Miss Debbie to meet other friends where she was going to another party this evening.

As you will see, I had Artspace AI help out on a few shots and all of them came up right on the first try! I sure love the versatility of that program!

I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
