Pacific Spirit Park

leaves of love


 
Five moments of the day on the trails in the Pacific Spirit Park where, no surprise, the leaves have a new meaning for us with two that caught our eyes today.
 
   
 

six of the best


 
The Pacific Spirit Park lifts our spirits every day as I think those of you who follow the Changing Palette know only too well. Enjoy these “six of the best” from the past week as the weekend begins.
 

 
  
 
  

Happy Thanksgiving


 
Happy American Thanksgiving to all my wonderful family and friends south of the border. As on our own Canadian Thanksgiving last month today is a moment to be thankful not only for the love of family and friends but for all those heroes working tirelessly on the frontline saving lives. With the coming new leadership that path in the woods will surely lead to happier, healthier and more hopeful days ahead but my thoughts today are of course on the six hundred and sixty six children and their families for whom this Thanksgiving Day is very much the opposite of happy. Keep them in your thoughts today too.

seeing the light


 
Looking up in the Pacific Spirit Park last week as the early morning sun illuminated those beautiful autumn leaves beneath the majestic soaring pines.
 
   
 

The leaves may be falling but our spirits are rising each day.

the view is sunny


 

It may be cloudy today with a forecast of snow here in Vancouver
but the view as the week begins couldn’t be sunnier.

looking up


 

546 day XV – First leaf of the day, and looking up with number 303 against a blue, blue sky.
No stopping the count here.

six of the best


 


 
Six of the best from yesterday in the Pacific Spirit Park with which to start the week, a week that may the most consequential for us all in a long time.

start the day


 
It may be dark outside early in the morning but a view like this from the Pacific Spirit Park, Vancouver on Monday is a good way to start the day don’t you think?
