On my walk today

Hi dear friends,

Hope all is well with you and your week is off to a great start.

These sweet little baby ducklings and their Mama, were standing outside the dairy when I passed by. Often when we have been out driving we have had to stop the car and let them pass safely across the road. There are many signs around the Island telling people to take care and watch out for the little ducklings.


DD made this outfit to wear to an event recently - she looked lovely
 We went out to lunch at 'Soul' in the viaduct and had a table out on the deck. This is a great place to look out over the boats and watch people walking around enjoying the spring day


and lastly the flowers blooming in the hanging baskets, always put on a pretty show.

'Savour the moments that make you the happiest '


Enjoy the rest of the week and many thanks for the kind visits to my blog and I look forward to coming to visit you soon.
hugs
Carolyn

  3. Love the concern for the ducks! Our city has several duck crossing signs. It is the little things in life that count.

    Cold and dark here, your bright city looks so inviting.

  7. Dear, dear Carolyn, HELLO!!!!!! It has been way too long since I've visited your beautiful world, and I just came via Penny's blog where I saw you knitted the cutest pair of booties for that darling LILY. That was so sweet of you! And I see you are enjoying the wonders of your season. We've had the best and warmest autumn on record with brilliant colors.

  18. Those hanging baskets are so pretty and such a charming picture. What a cute outfit your daughter made. At first, I thought it was a wedding dress and a veil. :) Oh, those sweet little ducklings... Yes, we must watch out for them and be patient until they cross the road.

    Wishing you pleasant November days, Carolyn.

    love, ~Sheri
