This morning I made a conscious effort to be outside somewhere, where I could watch the sunrise. I've not done that since back in May. The time felt right for this door to open and welcome events of this type back into my life. With sunrise time at a more reasonable hour, it allows me more time to accomplish what I have to do at home then get to Nose Hill and hike up. I was out the door during darkness. As I hiked up the main big trail, I watched behind.
Into the forest I go to find a Mom and her fawn. I wondered was this the family I saw the last time I was here. I think not, this was the only fawn which stuck very close to the Mom.
It's a good feeling to have doors open up again. I do realize it takes work and time to get to where I can make the doors open, I am putting the work in with patience.
When our world changed back in 2020, I became interested in the unusual planes that I could see parked at the airport which were visible out my front window. I joined a local on-line plane spotting group. I had been capturing photos of planes from my front doorstep using the full zoom on my camera. I have not been able to carry my camera and use it since May, so I plane spotted but did not capture shots. That was until today. I saw a plane out my picture window and I wanted a photo. I cannot carry my camera or yet raise it high enough to capture photos. My mind wandered and it wandered to a way I could make this work. Today another door opened! I can carry my camera attached to my tripod with my other arm. I can place it in the passenger seat of my car. I can get it out and carry it a short distance, set it up, lean down and snap a shot! This is what I captured! In this photo they are removing crates that contain the horses. It brought horses from Belgium for the Spruce Meadows Masters which takes place from September 3rd to September 7th.
I am already wondering what other doors can I work at to open them!
