Banana Tree...

 In our park but the pool...

 It's not a pretty tree...

But I think it's a cool tree...

Made it....

When we travel south Hubby always has to wash the car as soon as we arrive in the warm area of the south and we are past any change of snow or slush....
I usually roll my eyes at this habit of his....but once middler and I got close to 'home' I made her be on the lookout for a car wash. I just didn't know if I could park the car with the grim that was on it!
Well she spotted fundraising car wash and thought that would be a great way to get the car washed...

 

While it was being washed..

We visited the Sonic beside the car wash and enjoyed one of there slushes!

Ahhh the warmth of that sun....it feels so good to be in warm country!

Morning Walk...

 A Time to Reflect...

Do you remember singing....

London Bridge is Falling Down?

(little did we know it would be built back up)

 A new day...

Is it...'pink sky in the morning...sailor take warning?'

Have you ever noticed...how quickly the sky changes in the mornings?

We were glad we had stopped in Lake Havasu...

Last time we drove thru... I had noticed there was a Hobby Lobby...

 had to check it out!

And you can bet....we'll be stopping here more often....

If you've never been to Hobby Lobby... you'll have to check one out!!

On the road...

I never tire of the trip south.
We seem to do this trip twice and year...and I love it every time!
Winter...isn't my favourite time to drive...
This trip it was middler and me starting out from Southern Alberta...

We were  blessed with great roads...at times Sunny skies...

 Beautiful scenery...

 

Hockey

Hockey Strike is over

But this is the only hockey... I've watched this year!

Benches

 Last summer we pasted this coffee shop. 

And I tried to get pictures of these benches..

 

 But people were sitting on them.

The other day I past by...and got my pictures..

Our son is a woodworker. 

He loves to design and build projects. 

He designed and built these benches a couple years ago.

 There are a few restaurants in Downtown Edmonton 
where his benches reside.

Maple Sryup Snow Toffee

Maple Syrup from Quebec...

Heat it and pour it on snow..

Let it hardened a bit ...then

Roll it on a stick...

It is soft and delicious....

 I opted out and had Maple Sugar Candy Floss... it was yummy too!
