Merry Christmas to all! I hope everyone is snug and safe, and having a wonderful day. Here’s a collage of Christmas quilted creations I’ve made over the years.

What a difference a day makes. The orange steel arch of the Pattullo Bridge was removed this weekend and now floats on a barge awaiting removal and recycling.
I’ve included some photos from yesterday when it was still intact. I’m sad to see it go.

The steel arch of Pattullo Bridge will be removed over the long weekend, Oct. 9-11. We walked down this morning to watch. But other than the cranes clustered underneath the bridge, we couldn’t see any progress. We will check again tomorrow.
Second image is tonight’s sunset.

It was a beautiful summer day to explore the New West Cultural Crawl. I visited several locations traveling by bus and on foot.
Location 10 The Gallery at Queens Park was my first stop. Lots of great art by a variety of artists.
Location 9 my friend Terry Rammell. She has a beautiful studio with lots of eco-printed art, paintings and more.
Location 15 Braid Studios. I visited with and saw work by several artist friends @susanlgreigart @jenniejohnstonartist @trish.beadlady @franfriesen
Location 23 Anvil Centre was my last stop. There was lots of art and a poetry reading. But I didn’t take any photos (I was getting tired)

Yesterday - fun on the Fraser River. As part of Riverfest the annual Lucille Johnstone Workboat Parade. It was a beautiful day for it.

Back home in New Westminster. We’re happy to see the flowers have been growing and thriving. Beautiful walk along the boardwalk.

Sep 11 continued. Bruges is often called a fairy-tale medieval city. There we found many more historic buildings, narrow cobbled streets and more tourists! Both cities were picturesque, interesting locations.
...
Sep 11. Belgium. We docked in Zeeburgge. Our excursion was called Best of Bruges, Ghent & Canal Cruise. The morning was cloudy and about 15 degrees. In the afternoon the sun appeared and it warmed to 21 degrees.
We drove to Ghent and boarded a canal boat. We cruised along the canals, under low bridges, marvelling at the medieval architecture. We strolled around the city centre, then proceeded to Bruges (next post)
