Have a nice week!

Starting a new week, a new cycle, a routine of beginnings and endings, always renewing itself, gaining new energy, rising from the ashes like an eternal phoenix:

Extreme cold and pistachio ice cream

Very cold days throughout Canada. Ontario and Quebec under snow, yesterday (Tuesday) they began to dig their way out. Central and northern Alberta was under a fierce storm: wind, snow, ice, dozens of accidents, vehicles of all kinds in the ditch. There will be a window of a day or two and then snow again. Right now in my town, -32 C. Wednesday, midweek, we must move forward in good spirits and confidence in the future, my friends - perhaps with help of a pistachio ice cream:

Group of friends for Sunday

Friday's gang

Friday again - this week has passed very quickly, it was a very busy one, but a good one, that's the main thing. I hope I have more time tomorrow or on the weekend to add some interesting links, mean while, today we will have to settle only with the group of friends below - have a good Friday you all and we will see you soon:

Domestic or wild cat? - There are about 40 species of big cats in nature: these they are and those are the places where they can be seen in their natural environment - Good luck and good weekend!

Running to the weekend

Snow, cold... and birds

Almost without realizing it, we reached Thursday. It has been a VERY cold week, with temperatures between -25 to -30 degrees Celsius. But, the city is used to these winters, with polar cold and lots of snow and it continues to work, people go to work, shops open, restaurants are full ... And yes, there are birds around too, sparrows, chickadees, blue jays, woodspeckers, grosbeaks and many others:

Monday! (From this year there will be close encounters of the thirteenth kind)

Have a great 2022!

Sunday and starting a new week

Good Sunday and good week, folks - I hope you had a nice holiday time. Around here it has been very cold, with temperatures around -25 and -27. Still, they have been beautiful days spent with the family. I will have to return to the north at the beginning of next year. Meanwhile, chill out and peace for everyone:

Merry Christmas!

Mid week smiley woman

So far the weather has been more than acceptable, but make no mistake - winter is here, cold is getting ready. Next week, they say, there will be temperatures in the -20s. You have to heat the car by remote control from home; to turn it on in the morning you have to leave it plugged in with a block heater to keep the oil warm. Yes, winter is harsh in Canada. We arrive in the middle of the week, we can already smell Friday, let's enjoy every day ...

New dinos and nice weather

Finally Friday, the weekend is almost here. A beautiful day in Calgary, Alberta, sunny, shiny and not so cold, -1 C. Here I post this dinosaur, maybe, inspired by the amazing new dino species discovered in southern Chile - and the discovered dino foot prints that teach us about the motion habilities of these reptiles. Anyways, have a nice Friday evening and a good weekend, see you later, my friends:

Snowy Tuesday

Have a great day, my friends - cold, ice and gray cannot get us, carpe diem!

Winter is getting closer

The temps have been around zero degrees Celsius; with a lot of fog in the mornings and very delicate snowfalls at times. A snow that sits like a sheet on pastures, hills and roofs, but that on streets and sidewalks melts quickly. Gray days with a shameful sun that appears seconds from behind the clouds:

Guitarist

Today the Crystal Night is tragically remembered; the fall of the Berlin Wall is also remembered; but also on November 9, the famous Aranjuez Concert by the Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo was performed for first time, in 1940. November 9, sweet and sour:

Have a good week!
