Evening On The Canal

Evening On The Canal

I live in the city of Sault Ste. Marie (nicknamed "the Sault" or "the Soo") on the St. Marys River in Ontario, Canada. The Sault Ste Marie (pronounced Soo Saint Ma-ree) canal is part of the shipping route from the Atlantic ocean to Lake Superior and includes a set of locks to bypass the rapids on the St. Marys River. This canal is used for recreational and tour boats; major shipping traffic uses the American Soo Locks.

It was a hazy evening when I took a walk along the canal. This shot was taken standing on the closed gate, looking towards Lake Superior. In the background is the International Bridge (or more properly, the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge). It spans the St. Marys River between the United States and Canada connecting the twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

Going away again for a few days! Keep on posting those great shots and I'll view them when I get back!

Good Night Sunshine

Good Night Sunshine

The sun was setting and these lovely little wildflowers were closing up their petals.

I have not had the time to spend on Flickr lately as my son and daughter are visiting and more company is on the way. I will post and comment when I can. Have a great weekend!

The Frog Prince

The Frog Prince

I almost stepped on this little fellow. He blended so well with his surroundings. Looks like I wasn't the only one enjoying the sunshine!

Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do...

Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do...

The daisies are growing wild everywhere ! They are such a cheerful wildflower. When my daughter was little, my mother used to pick the daisies and weave her a flower wreath for her head. It is one of my favourite memories of her.
