Random acts of kindness

 This is the bench, that the people who own Sunrise Vineyards, put beside the bus stop that is in front of their driveway. I stand at this bus stop numerous times in the week, the only lady in my neighbourhood who does, and was awed by the presence of this bench.  I saw the gentleman on Thursday and thanked him for putting it there and he said that he sees people standing at the stop and thought it would be a good idea..
Yess...its a good idea and thank you for putting it there. Since I live in a neighbourhood where people don't take the bus, the bus stop is...like on the side of the road...and if the bus driver sees you and stops that's great. One day I was wearing a hot
 pink top and an orange skirt and he drove right by me....he did hear my screams and eventually stopped.
Anyway, thank you Mr. Mueller for your random act of kindness.
p.s. Luka wasn't really that grumpy, it was 8 a.m. but the weather was warm and the view was great and in the end...life isn't that bad

Beavers: the National animal of Canada

 There is a little nature park in the middle of the Mission, near the store where I work. My husband often picks me up after work and we walk our old dog there. I waited all winter for the beaver to emerge and I have been privileged to see him and her quite a few times now. The one time he was eating in the grass, practically a leap away, I had forgotten my camera.
Fascieux Park is really a cool little place tucked away behind the shopping centre.
