Now that I have purchased a tripod for my camera I promise to go downtown and take some photos of the streets there. As my colleague pointed out, a person would be dead if they were down there after a few drinks. All the shops are up on some risers that I guess are stairs. But they are not consistent in elevation, and even when you think you are on an even stretch of cement, you hit a ledge that can send you reeling. And if you are slightly disabled in walking or climbing, you cant even get into some of the shops. You have to climb up about 18 inches for the first step and then who knows what else. But I will go there with my camera and take some street views for you to see. When I had my knee problem I would not have been able to get into the bank because it is on one of those weird step configurations.
As for today, I was all decked out in cheap clothing that I bought just for painting day. Remember I have to wear certain attire, that covers me, so picked up a long blouse and skirt I will never wear again. I did not want to ruin my better duds. I dashed to work, set up the camera and finished up the preparation painting for the kiddos and then the clouds opened up and poured all morning. So, no painting today. I have had to put it off until next Monday, as my schedule is full this week.
So thanks again RyGuy for telling me to get a tripod years ago, I move, but not quickly.
from the last few days in Canada and forward, you can join me in my thoughts and actions as I learn how to live in a country that I had not even known the exact location until Ryan was there a few years ago. Some days I have rants and other days I have adventures, but every day is a learning experience that I embrace and thank God I was given the opportunity to know and to be. I might even upload a picture of me in this place I now call home – for now.
