"I have often walked down this street before"


Dewbourne Crs .....
The pavement (road) is in sad need of repair, or better still - replacing.
Unlike the lyrics, the surface is so loose it will not stay beneath your feet.

Burlington parasol ....

Burlington promenade ......
It seems a pity to hide from the sun, when you've been waiting all winter for it to return its warmth and comfort to you.

Ski season remnants .....


Looking towards Glen Eden ski slopes from Kelso .....

On Glen Eden slopes - must be easier to go down than go up :-)

Kelso Conservation Area .....

The lake at Kelso is actually a reservoir. The dam is out of shot to the right.


The old farmhouse and pond ......


The Halton Region Museum. We'll have to go inside it one day!
None of the park facilities were open (too early in the season) so it was nice and quiet.
Thankfully the washrooms were open :-))

Preparations .....

When the lake's surf is up you gotta act quick - either ride it or photograph it - I'll do the latter one thanks very much.

Ruffage .....

Bit of a blow on today. The change from a normally placid lake is quite remarkable ......

Canal .....

Around 6-45 this morning I was on my way into work and saw the glow in the eastern sky.
Instead of taking the Skyway bridge with the usual hundreds of others, I went via the old lift bridge - slower maybe - but a lot more picturesque, and much more relaxing.
You can actually stop too :-)

Flight .....

Around this time of the year, the sea gulls start gathering here for the breeding season. Strong south-westerly winds off the lake allow them to use the updraft off the lake wall to lift-off and soar without effort.

Some of the birds don't make it. The winds blow them into nearby traffic on the road running alongside the wall.
