The wall on the side of a house!

 Sunny September Autumn days!

 Makes this Virginia Creeper look so good!

 What a joy to see!

The garden can look great in the Fall!

A day out in The Netherlands!

 First a gorgeous stop in Hovelaken!

 This years "handwerkfestijn", Handwork Festival

fundraiser for the Diabetes foundation, was located at.... 

.....Harco Hoveniers

  Sewing stuff and plants at one location!

Fun! Fun! No, I didn't bring one home!

 There were sponsors and volunteers! 

 Attention to detail done by the flower arranging club!

 Lovely idea!

 A food truck, creative knitting, gardeners, sunshine!

Happy people!

 Then it was time for Chemistry Day!

Every two years companies open their doors to the public!

 We visited Dishman Netherlands, where they produce and sell cholesterol and Vitamin D products  after washing sheep's wool!

 Amazing what they can get out of wool!

Tada! Then I spotted these! Instant garden Hosta planters!

Have to visit other companies in the future!

Show and Tell!

 I didn't come back home with an empty suitcase!

I'm all set for Winter! Used these while working in Banff!

 I visited "A Great Notion" sewing supply store!

Picked up a few needed supplies!

If you're ever in Abbotsford, B.C.!

Great people! Great stuff!

 And a few fabrics for the stash!

This might be great for Easy Cathedral Window!

And for a fun project!

There, just a bit of the Canadian vacation!
Maybe one more post of the visit to Long Beach! 

Back home, here! Let's go see what's happening in town!

Good morning!

 Join me for coffee?!

It's Friday already!

 How about a few of these?!

 Or a piece of this! So good!

 With a view out towards the coast of Vancouver Island!

 Need something gluten Free! There's a lot of choice!

 Seen at a local coffee place!

 The best crackers, to go with cheese, at a picnic!

While we're relaxing, let's think about these!

Another project for the tea table!

Hope you have a great Indian Summer September weekend!

Time for a walk!

 Hello! Join me as we walk around a bit of B.C.? There's no certain order, just random stops here and there! We'll start witha view of the Fraser River!

  You can camp here at Fort Langley!

 Great trees on Vancouver Island!

 The boardwalk at Port Alberni!

 Look up! A Bald Eagle!

 A river runs through this park!

 Art in the Park!

 Autumn begins with beautiful colours!

 Earths history seen in the rock formation!

 Looks can be decieving!

 Time to enjoy a garden swing!

The tools can stay in the shed!

What a great garden idea!

Time for us to find smething good to eat!

Coffee? Keurig?

 Good Morning! Time for a cup of coffee! While I was doing the grocery shopping in Canada, I checked out the coffee options. There seems to be a new product out on the coffee scene! What are these big plastic cups filled with loose coffee?

It's a one cup coffee maker called Keurig.

 That's a lot of non environment friendly plastics going into land fill at a time when we are all supposed to be thinking greener! Keurig? I don't think so!

 Funny thing is, the only Senseo coffee maker that I saw while travelling about was at the Holland shopping centre! Looks like that one has been imported! They sell the Senseo coffee pads next to packs of DE coffee! Check out that electrical converter!

 Across from the counter were these !

And don't forget your Dutch souvenirs!

Where ever you are, enjoy your morning coffee!

Just for fun!

 Do you know which one this is?

Maybe this video will help!

 Ana a photo of a picture of few of these for this song!

 Fun garden ideas and surprises!

Plus Hostas! Hosta Paradise! Hostas with no holes!

Hello!

Banana trees!

 Here are just a few picts from a two and a half week visit to Canada to visit friends and family! There are a lot of photo's to sort and show but today, just a few of the highlights! Great to see you again! Hope you are doing well!

 There were lovely places to visit!

 A "selfie" in a antique shop! A shop full of Royal Albert!

 Great art on walls !

 A stop here at Apeldoorn's for afternoon tea!

 A great walk around here on Vancouver Island!

 A lunch stop at Milner Gardens....
