And a special memory which I had forgotten...Sept. 11.2001
"On this day, 20 years ago, a tiny town in Newfoundland took in 6,700 airline passengers stranded during September 11th.
The town of Gander, Newfoundland, has six traffic lights and a population of less than thirteen thousand. They opened their homes and hearts to complete strangers, in their most painful hour.
It's what Canada does."
Thank you!

The lake looks as attractive as ever; I wouldn't worry too much about the wires. A couple of posts ago I was debating with myself as to which order to put the photographs on the blog. In the end I decided to upload them all in one go and let Blogger sort it out - you guessed it, for once they appeared in the order I had taken them!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I do a bit of cut/paste when blogger gets obvious start and finish photos out of order. Sometimes I don't. Yes, it's a lovely lake.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteLovely views of the lake. I watched a news report recently, reminding about the town and people in Newfoundland taking in the strangers stranded on 9/11. Take care, have a happy day!
Glad to hear the good news is still being repeated, along with all the awful things. Have a great new week.
DeleteGood views of the lake.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteWires. Sometimes I notice them and try to avoid them. Sometimes I clone them out. Sometimes I just go with the flow.
ReplyDeleteI do look to you for guidance...and like the last of your choices!
DeleteIt's hard not photograph the wires these days. They're mostly everywhere. Love the views there.
ReplyDeleteThanks...I guess when I capture wires, I can just say so.
DeleteI usually don't like wires but I don't worry about it these days, I try to miss them when I'm taking a photo. Nice view of the lake.
ReplyDeleteThanks...and maybe I'll figure out how to edit them out eventually!
DeleteThe story about Gander is one of the nice memories from that terrible time.
ReplyDeleteA pretty lake! When I move pictures in blogger, I do it from the HTML screen. Otherwise, trying to pull pictures around results in broken links.
