When we are not accustomed to 14C weather with a breeze, it seems a lot cooler.  But the leaves have not turned as quickly as we expected, with the overnight temperatures remaining above freezing.  The weather forecast says we will get frost on Monday....

But, the sunshine prompted me to go explore in Old Strathcona to check out the fall colours anyway.  There were a few minor activities happening there, seemingly a lot less than advertised.

But, an outing is an outing, and I stopped by Cosmic Pizza to grab a 2-topping pizza and a pop to share with Dawn.  She goes to Calgary tomorrow for a few days...

Not much sports on TV today, disappointingly... so back to the books... 

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

Thursday and Friday I mostly worked on my photos.  I am honestly sleeping almost 12 hours every day now...

Today, my niece Dawn really made a very special meal to thank the people who made her grand-daughter, Piper's, first concert a memorable one..  The "Journey" concert was Thursday night and was truly exciting for young Piper, thanks to the help and generosity of Tracey and her friend Debbie.

 It was my first time meeting Debbie, who I thought was about 17 years old, but I was way off the mark there.  It turns out she is from Mexico (so we did talk a bit in Spanish), a new resident here, and taking University courses.  And,.... she is a photographer....

Even after too many glasses of wine, we all went out to catch the Harvest Moon, already high in the sky...

I let Debbie shoot with my D5600 while I shot the close-ups with the P1100.

Now, I feel like a fall pumpkin and am hitting the sack as soon as this is done.... 

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