A Stroll down the street
Yesterday we could not have asked for a more beautiful day – clear skies, and the temp went up to 11c/54f after another frosty foggy early morning. It was time for me to go outside with my camera and see what would catch my eye for a change. I also wanted to take some pics of a new construction going on behind our home in the next street over.
The first thing I came across was the cutest kitten. She hid besides the bushes but was still enough then for me to get her pic.
One of the children from this home had left their toy truck out, and I did my best to get it too.
Here is what is going on – it is huge! This cannot begin to do justice to the massive project they are working on – this foundation is actually almost all going to be underground as there is an enrmous hole here where they are working in. I looked everywhere for some kind of sign as to what it will be when completed but could not see one. As it is on the ground besides the Menno Home I will assume for now that it will be similar to the apartments for assited living they built a couple of years ago which would be beside it and behind me in this pic.
Parked on the side of the street going to the project I noticed this little Smart Car – could not resist taking it’s pic. Not too many around but so cute for a run about in town.
This abandoned child’s barrow caught my eye as I started to return home – shades of the fun children have with snow. Only the piles left from clearing the driveways are still around to give credence to all the snow we had these last few weeks.

Those little smart cars ARE adorable! I don’t think I have ever seen one around here.
Hi France–thanks for the visit–I appreciate that. I am an old guy of 75, married 53 years to the same woman and retired 13. Our 95 and 93 year old MIL and Auntie live with us–both with strokes. My wife is a very busy woman. Today I did lunch for her so she could visit a girlfriend and do some fun shopping.
I see you like photo, and I think metaphysical. Hope that’s right.
I discovered Xanga over a year ago and I have met so many wonderful people around the world. Isn’t the Internet wonderful????
Anyway, you have a nice day.
Blessings

Wow, that is a big place. Will be interesting to see just what it is. What a cute little car. Don’t have any of them around here.
Thanks for taking me along on your walk. I enjoyed it.
