 Have a good laugh......

No rain here for most of the month and although the sunny days are delightful we need the rain to maintain the water supply in the summer. Just about .2mm. for this month so far and it is usually a lot more, usually 75mm by this time.
We took a trip to Canadian Tire today to admire the Christmas baubles. There are so many pretty things to put on the tree.

We looked at lamps and dishes, not that we bought anything except three coloured jingle bells. We like noise LOL.

Beautiful design on a tree skirt. I tried to edit this photo , fine , I was able to eliminate the part on the right but try as I might I could not save it so here it is, not the way I want it but it is worth looking at.

Wire trees, a pretty decoration for the table.

Then we went to the grocery store to buy some diabetic Ensure for those days when I am not up to eating.

Dear Kathy came over this morning with a beautiful  poinsettia and some candied almonds. The poinsietta is just gorgeous and the almonds are delicious. It was a lovely surprise. Thank you so very much Kathy. I'll take a photo tomorrow when the light is better.

Vancouver  can be  a dangerous place in the middle of the night. A black bear was found city centre eating out of a dumpster. He must have crossed the Lion's Gate Bridge in the middle of the night since no one saw him until morning. Sneaky guy!! He had to have come down from the mountain, crossed the bridge and marched right into the city. He was tranquilized and returned to Squamish. Life in the fast lane! LOL.

Check those claws, you would want to stay out of the way of those babies.

Have a great evening everybody.
Good night!
