Lovely, if chilly, afternoon visiting the wildlife around Mud Lake. Everyone was busy looking for food!

Do they have signs for the places where the bitcoins come in, too?

We watche Rocky Horror for Halloween last night, and I finally figured out whom Miller has been channelling all this time.

Happy #caturday to all those celebrating! Here is Tilly, relaxing from the Halloween frenzy in a cuddle puddle with her favourite mice. Sectional couches were made for this!

Some 40 kids came to our door for trick-or-treating, despite the wind and chilly rain. ZERO after eight though...

Go, Jays!

OK, so against all the odds, I'm watching a baseball game. Serious question: What's with all the spitting? Ew.

Thrilled to listen to my former colleague Kirsten Hillman, 🇨🇦's Ambassador to the US, talk about Canada-US relations yesterday. A once-in-a-generation diplomatic talent of whom Canadians can be justifiably proud.

Today was a day for challenging light in Prince Edward County - a perfect time to photograph old things. #PrinceEdwardCounty #PEC #TheCounty #BlueSkyPhotography

What happens when you put out pumpkins for Canadian Thanksgiving: Our squirrels are grateful!

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to all of us celebrating! Here, have some pies, an autumnal cat, and an elderly broad basting a turkey.

RIP Dr. Jane Goodall. An inspiration to humankind, in her substantive research and insights, her conservation/climate advocacy, as well as a model for women and girls in the world of science. The world is poorer for her passing, but richer for her presence and legacy. May her memory be a blessing.
