Lansdowne Park
July 19, 2024. Looking at the back of the stands at Lansdowne Park in Ottawa. We were there for the RedBlacks game (which we won!). I worked from home today, and after work set up the bicycle for my trip starting tomorrow. Here's the set-up video and ... -
Office Farming
July 17, 2024. This is the latest photo of my self-starting potato in my office. I've given it some dirt and lots of water. I'll be away for a couple of weeks so who knows whether it will make it. But I'm giving it the best chance. https://flic.kr/p/2... -
Rideau Street
July 14, 2024. This is Rideau Street at the Bay. It was so hot we went mall walking instead of hiking, bought some essential stuff, and stayed cool. https://flic.kr/p/2q5bEnk -
St. Lawrence
July 13, 2024. This is the St. Lawrence River near the Long Sault parkway. It was a bright brilliant and very hot day today, and because people were driving so badly I decided to stick to off-road bicycle trails, so I went from the Lost Villages memor... -
Fenceline
July 12, 2024. We drove home from Tremblant today, sadly. But we were back early enough that I could get out for a short ride. This is a fenceline I see every time I do the St. Albert loop. https://flic.kr/p/2q41mQh -
Riviere Rouge
July 11, 2024. This is the Riviere Rouge at Brebuf, which I finally visited by bicycle. That wan't my plan, but there was a lot of construction on the P'tit Train du Nord trail between Tremblant and Labelle, so I took an alternate - and much longer, a... -
A Little Patch of Paradise
July 9, 2024. A small pond reflects this dense forest along the P'tit Train du Nord trail near Mont Blanc. Woke up not feeling well, so I stayed in for a bit while Andrea started up the mountain. Felt well enough to do 40 km down the trail and back ea... -
Butterfly
July 8, 2024. A butterfy in the grass, maybe a cabbage white. Today was spent getting ready and then travelling to Mont Tremblant. This photo was taken as we waited for the ferry at the Ottawa River. https://flic.kr/p/2q3ikR6 -
Pine Grove South
July 7, 2024. Pine Grove Forest south, in Ottawa's greenbelt (trail 45). Lots of bugs. Medium dense forest, in lush green with blue sky showing through the leaves. A large tree trunk to the left, and white and orange flowers in the foreground. Forest ... -
Curry
July 6, 2024. Over the last few weeks I've been making curries. I'll make a few day's worth and then have it with salmon. Today we got scallions in the Odd Bunch veggie shipment, so I added those on top. Pictured here is a cauliflower and eggplant cur... -
Paper Lantern
July 5, 2024. This is a paper lantern ina tree along the fenceline at the Starbucks on Ogilvie Road near where I worked. I stopped there for coffee after lunch. Worked in the city all day - more progress on CList (and learning a lot about Javascript) ... -
Robin
July 4, 2024. This is a robin on the gazebo in the back yard, in low light in the evening. I working in the city today, mostly on CList, but I also had to go downtown for dental imaging. While there I popped into the camera store and bought a 2x exten... -
Lily
July 2, 2024. Like the title says; it's a lily. Rest day today, worked from the home office working on CList and doing some reading. https://flic.kr/p/2q2zU1B -
Bird Antics
June 30, 2024. Some birds frolicking in a tree not far from the walkway in Warwick Forest. We went for a nice walk, my heel hurt again, but we still went to the football game in the evening. https://flic.kr/p/2q2jCJc -
Ottawa River
June 26, 2024. The Ottawa River east of the airport. Another day in the office working on CList, and I took a quick lunch hour ride along the river. There was a whole set of aircraft flying over, from WWII vintage to modern fighters, so it was hard to... -
Arte
June 25, 2024. This is some artwork on display here in Casselman. There's a whole slew of these painted mannequins as part of a community art project (you're supposed to vote for your favourite but I think picking a winner cheapens it). https://flic.k... -
Forest Green
June 23, 2024. No biking yesterday because of the weather. This photo is from our walk through the Mer Bleue forest. My left foot is still hurting quite a lot. https://flic.kr/p/2q1gLDt -
Pond
June 21, 2024. Another day working in the office, working on a project called 'CList'. Over lunch I cycled downtown to get some Hungarian paprika paste. This is from the little forested area just alongside the NRC campus; I notice that there's a bit o... -
Local Farm
June 17, 2024. Worked from home on a nice Monday and then did a quick loop to St. Albert after. This is a farm just north of St. Albert. https://flic.kr/p/2q1eqUU -
Pathway
June 15, 2024. I took a couple days to recover after my trip (by working in the office) and then we went out for a Saturday walk in Mer Bleue forest (I fdorgot the battery for my camera so this is just a phone pic). https://flic.kr/p/2q1fYnj -
Shrimp Laksa
June 12, 2024. Flew back from Ireland today, landing in Toronto, where I had this shrimp laksa at the airport hotel. It was absolutely delicious. It was so much nicer to just hit the hotel on landing than to make my way from Toronto home. https://flic...
