This shot is a little dark for my liking, but I wanted to post it because I like the perspective, and because it's one of those memories that will be frozen in time once I put it on the Internet. It may not be anything special to the average person browsing pictures on Flickr, but this place means a lot to my extended family.

Had a good day today...Went to work, went to a post-group interview at the hospital, lost some Kroff Dinnah down the drain (not so good), and then caught up with Naomii. I have another busy day ahead tomorrow...work, buying stuff, making brownies for Treat Friday, and then jamming...and hopefully my new phone will arrive by then! I've been waiting long enough and I'm refusing to top up my pay-as-you-go because of the imminent arrival of my new phone.
Anyway, bedtime!

Last July, I went to the cottage in Nova Scotia for five days. It was a much-needed break for me, because I had just moved in to my apartment two weeks before, and was in the middle of a war with the new landlord over this, that, and the other thing.
I don't have a lot to say now, because I need to go to bed, but this is my dad and cousin walking back toward the cottage, on the first day we arrived. I don't know why my dad was carrying rocks. The lighting wasn't ideal for pictures that day, but I did get some great shots in the following days...one of which ranks as probably the most rewarding picture I've ever taken! So stay tuned!

I got up one morning at the beach and wandered out to the deck, where my dad was making omelettes on the barbeque...I think that's what he was making. These are some of the ingredients.

I've been trying to renew my Pro account, but the system keeps screwing up. On top of that, my new phone hasn't arrived yet, and I burned a chunk of the ingredients for my brownies, so I tossed them before putting it into the oven, and now I have less brownies.
But, overall today wasn't too bad. Hopefully tomorrow will be warmer!

This edit made the scene darker than I'd like, but I do like what it does to the smoke, and to the buoys. I took this in Pictou on a morning trip with my grandmother. She had to go do some errands, and I wanted to take some pictures. I've known Pictou in small detail all my life, but I had never really taken pictures there until the day I took this one. I figured that now was the time, since I had a great camera and I was confident enough in my skills that I'd come back with some great shots.

I'm pretty annoyed that my phone's order didn't go through until today, even though I ordered it a week ago...so that would explain why I haven't received it yet! With this postal strike, who knows when I'll get it now :(
At least my brownies were a success at work today!

I've been itching to go planespotting recently...it's been over 2 months...so I think I'mma go tomorrow or Sunday.

I got my new phone today! :D I'll probably elaborate more tomorrow, but now I need to go to bed.

I took this picture for a story my dad and brother were working on, for the annual News Reading on the day of the Toney River Olympics. I'm very happy with this picture!
