Late Summer Saturday

Ah, there's nothing like shopping for veggies and fruit in the summer, there's tons of variety, everything is fresh and best of all, its CHEAP!!!! I think its about time to check out the Farmer's Market in St. Norbert.

In other news: the prodigal bracelet has returned! It obviously fell off when I was at the sub-office Tuesday and it was there on the floor by the desk when I got in Friday. So its back, its on my wrist. Life is good!

Bracelets, Bracelets and more Bracelets!

Okay, when it comes to bracelets I'm just plain jinxed. I bought one last friday at the Forks, I get home and decide I have lots of energy - time to vaccuum! Bad move - I hear the vaccuum suck something up and don't really think much of it, the dog is forever leaving little bits of cookies laying around - its just a piece of one.

A while later I look at my wrist and realize - NO BRACELET. A half hour of searching later and I realize I vacuumed it up and after checking the bag, I find its destroyed. UGH!

So I go back to the Forks on Saturday and decide to be smart! I'll buy two and check them during the day to make sure they are still on. Works great Sat, Sunday and Monday. Today however....you guessed it! The blue one (coincidentally my fave!!!) is missing. And of course I don't notice until I get home - I've been to work, in and out of the building all day, walked to and from two bus stops, went to Denny's to feed the cats..... etc etc etc...

Who knows where it is - I think I'll just go to Michaels and buy the stuff to make some new ones with PROPER clasps - sigh........

Esplanade Riel

Getting artsy with the black and white feature. This is the walking bridge with the controversial Sals on it. Looks like its pretty popular, there was a line-up waiting for seats when we went past.

The Forks

Spent Friday afternoon and a couple hours Saturday wandering around the Forks. I'm totally addicted to the new camera and find myself just wanting to take picture after picture. Here's one.

Testing The New Camera
Finally decided to splurge and get the new camera. I couldn't get the older model so I decided to get the one that was most comparable. Its a Kodak EasyShare C330. Drove Best Buy nuts by refusing all the up sells, did a load of walking to get the darn thing, but its worth every penny!

On the way home tonight, I took the bus downtown then decided to walk from The Bay to the Legislature. Stopped by Memorial Park, saw a few of the 'Bears on Broadway' (course a couple of them were actually on Memorial Blvd but....) then wandered back across Assiniboine to check out the Riel statue and the small garden on the banks of the river. Very cool indeed!
