I am saying farewell to my old MAC laptop and a sweet hello to my new MAC...
The new one is smaller and much faster...
way faster than the operator at this moment in time.
There is a bit of a learning curve but thankfully with a MAC there is so much familiarity that we can bravely navigate with very little fear.
(I have a very capable young tech just a phone call away which helps too!)
I am going to test drive this new machine by taking you all on my recent walk in Oak Bay.
I walked past one of my favourite gardens in all of Victoria.
If you ever get the chance please visit this magical place...
have lunch or afternoon tea and walk about the grounds
it is a little piece of heaven on earth.
I passed by a quiet lane where this beautiful white wisteria was growing along a cedar fence...
I love wisteria and think it looks so elegant, almost enchanting.
There were 5 deer eating their breakfast in a garden beside the path.
The birds were singing and it was very quiet.
I felt like I was in the country.
I posted a video of one of the deer to my Instagram page and judging by the amount of times it has been viewed it must be worth watching.
I took this "secret path" tucked between two houses.
I am in the area of Oak Bay where I grew up and when we were young "adventurers" we used to pretend that these paths were very secret and known only to the children in the neighbourhood.
I wandered up towards Oak Bay Avenue on a dead end street.
Ah but there is another path that winds itself through the area...
this one is known to many as there has been a booklet published detailing the route...it has been lit for night time use and safety on the rugged rocky steps.
Here is the view from the bottom of the steps...
looking onto a lovely little byway just off the beaten path.
Someone lost a bootie...
The mighty oak has fallen and the municipality knows that the Garry Oak Meadows are better off when the tree trunks are left as they fall...
(they have cut off the limbs that would have blocked the path)
I am hoping that this post will be in the Blogger feed as soon as I hit publish...
if not I need to do some sleuthing to find out what I need to fix.
Please keep your fingers crossed!
Thank you for stoping by...
