Writing under a Montreal sky

Still fall

and doggies eating patiently for their walker to get it together at the entrance to my local park. One big black fellow ( just out of sight) wanted so much to get acquainted but his business-like walker soon put a stop to that . “ He jumps up and I can’t be responsible for any injury.” She was right I suppose but doggie and I exchanged a mournful glance and off I went.

A breezy day

that brought down many leaves but the temperature was still mild. We’ve been enjoying a sort of enchanted fall this year with lovely colours and mild temperatures.

It won’t last
Soon to take cover

I awoke to a temperature of 4 degrees this morning. Even the geraniums must come in now.

Was it only a few months ago that I saw an elderly gentleman standing , half-dressed in this pond on an infernally hot and humid day?

Canadians have the reputation of being moderate and reasonable people. Perhaps we cultivate these qualities in the face of a climate that is anything but.

Ah, found them!

    There is something melancholy about the last days of Fall. It is so beautiful and at the same time a bit sad. The passage of time moves forward relentlessly. And we must join this journey come what may!
