sk8 or die

This is a project that I had in mind for a while and finally got around to taking the photos. Then it took a while to edit the photo together. I think it turned out pretty cool.

and here is another photo that I think turned out okay.

Family Photo

They just painted the rainbow bridge, which was tagged (rather poorly I might add) soon afterward. Then it was painted again. So, before it was tagged again we decided to walk down and have a look. While we were out it seemed like a good time to get a quick family photo.

Here it is.

Underpass Park

 They just opened up a new park downtown. There are a lot of condos going up, and they needed to build some more parks. Luckily the stop just under the underpass was not being used. It's actually a pretty cool park. On one side of the street is a jungle gym and swings and the other side is a skate park.

This is Max on a twisty thing that if you aren't careful will throw you off.

I think we will go back again.

Forks of the Credit

I heard great things about this place, and the many waterfalls there. Well I'm not sure where these great falls were cause I didn't see any "great" falls. The drive up there was almost worth it though because of the super twisty portion of one of the roads. 

We picked a very hot day to do this walk and it was much longer then I had expected. Also of course the kids got tired and said "can you pick me up". Which of course we did.

This first pic is at the half way point on the walk back. Trying to cool down in the shade by the water.

At the start of the walk, tons of frogs in the water behind them.

The "not so great" water fall.

A quick picnic lunch near the unimpressive falls.

Spring Time Photos

With the arrival of Autumn, I figured this is the perfect time to post pics of last spring.

This is a combo of different walks around the city.

This first batch is from Sunnybrook Park

and these are from Edwards Gardens, which happens to be part of the same green space.

these are from the "duck pond" aka Terraview Park

and this last one is from beside the playground at our place.
