Maple Red

There is no more brilliant red than that of a red maple leaf.

They are a bland green all summer and then “WHAM!”, along comes fall – a chance to show off.

But like all fireworks the show is over too soon.

More Sunshine

It’s not as big as a sunflower but it is a relative and a bunch of them are just as sunny.

Getting ready for the long dark days of November.

Autumn is Creeping

The fall colours are showing more and more as the days go by.  Yesterday morning on One Mile Bay they were evident.

It’s only going to get better!

Pearls

North Bay’s Main Street has developed a little section of elegant, neatly designed storefronts.

“Pearls” is one.

The colours in the designs are incorporated upward to the second stories of the old buildings as well.

Indian Summer

It may be a bit early to be using the term as we haven’t had much cold weather but this past weekend was particularly nice.

The water is not too cold yet for a bit of kayaking:

Another advantage of living in the North!

Reincarnation

Back from the dead!

Last spring, things were looking bleak.

See HERE and HERE.

New life from old.  Gives one hope!

Elegant Interiors

One storefront on our Main Street:

Unfortunately it looks like North Bay doesn’t need interiors, elegant or otherwise…

Yellow Screen Door

Love the yellow screen door!

This definitely brightens up an already bright day.

Hot!

A friend grows Chili Peppers.

A small piece from any of these will make your tongue come alive!

“Thai Dragon”, “Habanero ‘Kukulkan'”, “Purira”, “Prairie Fire”, “Bulgarian Carrot”, are names that carry just a hint of their potency.

The word for me is “Look.  Don’t eat!”
