Fall scenes

Fuzzy and foggy landscapes are all part and parcel of the transition between fall and winter.

Going, going

Fall is not for everyone but it does provide a chance to look at different colours, eh?

Salut, summer

Summer departed while the computer was fried, so this would be a good time to wrap up some warm weather memories now that we have new and improved connectivity.

Of course, we saw fire in the sky often as we basked in hot mid-summer nights. We had to get ready for winter, so we did some splitting.

And we learned about the literal meaning of the "fog of war" during a War of 1812 battle re-enactment.

Light rail

It is amazing how the sun can seem to illuminate even the most mundane subjects, eh?

Refreshing dip

Ah, Thanksgiving: A time for turkey, sweet potato pie and waterskiing?

Every square tells a story

A quilt display is one of the attractions of the International Plowing Match and Rural Expo that will be held just down the road, in East Hawkesbury, in September.

Quilts can tell a story, such as the one about the Underground Railway, herald accomplishments, such as the ribbons won by the Kirby family, and they burst into a fabulous display of colours.

Jungle cat

Millie takes her job seriously, venturing into her jungle even on long weekends.

July Colours

All creatures, including horses, enjoyed a bit of a romp in the midsummer landscape, where peas were hanging on and wheat was peaking.

Shades of green

Everywhere you look, everything seems to be green at this time of year, eh?

Team work

The strong and quiet types, Tiny and Rose work as a team at a recent plowing demonstration, one of the many events promoting the International Plowing Match in East Hawkesbury in September. This team shows why so many horsemen believe that horse-power on the hoof is the real attraction of plowing contests.

What is it?

One of the best things about this newspaper racket is that you get to do stories on specialty industries.

This is the key to a Hawkesbury company that has a connection with everyone.

Can you guess what this object is?

Honk for geese!

OK, so you expect to see geese in the middle of a field, but in the middle of the road?

Some feathers were ruffled but nobody was injured in this close encounter with a flock.

Standing out

Political turf

Well, it is nice to see political rivals sharing turf, even though the Liberal is leaning to the right and the blue candidate is a bit of a blur.

Down the road, trees have taken a stand, on a wagon.
