granwalk  Most days I've been going for a walk by the pond near my home.  I have to out in the morning as it's too hot by the
           afternoon.  In this picture I'm on my way to the post office on the high street.

pantry  While Nicholas was still visiting, he and Dorothy installed shelving in my kitchen pantry.

garden tour  In August, The McKenzie Towne Gardening Club hosts its annual garden tour.  Here I am on a patio surrounded by
           a pond in the garden of one of the participants.

kate sign  Here I am in my own back garden in August.  The "102" pottery house sign was made by Granddaughter Kate for
           my last house in England.  By coincidence, my new house number in Calgary is also 102!

ogden  In August I began visiting the Ogden House Seniors Centre.  So far I've been for the weekly canasta night, the weekly
           bridge group, and for potluck lunches.  I've met some nice people and I'll continue with the centre through the winter.

shed  Dorothy and Nicholas set up a potting shed for me just off of the back patio.  Here I am already hard at work!

shed  Here I am on the front step of my building in August.  In front of the building is a lovely green square, to which
           wedding parties
 have come for their wedding photos each weekend this summer.  I've enjoyed watching them!
