ANOTHER STEP CLOSER

Tomorrow is April 1st and each day I’m one step closer to “managing” the website … of course, with the assistance of PageMaster’s supportive staff!

Another beautiful, sunny day.   I’ve been working on my image library all morning so this afternoon will take our dogs for a walk in one of our favourite natural areas.    The snow is disappearing quickly but the coming week’s forecast is calling for snow flurries — this part of the province is in need of more moisture so that is welcome news.    Canada Geese are slowly making their way back to our part of the world — to me,  their “honking” is a sign of spring.    Noisy crows and seagulls have returned but I haven’t seen any ducks or swans yet.

There is a Ukrainian Cultural Village near Elk Island Park, less than an hour’s drive from Edmonton.     I haven’t yet visited the village, which opens May 1 and remains open until the fall,  but people have said it’s worth seeing so that will definitely be on my list of places to visit this summer.

A trip to Vancouver Island is coming up before long.  It will be nice to visit old friends again … and walk on the beaches.   There will be more photos to share!!

Yesterday I chose two of my art prints to donate to a fund raising event for Second Chance Animal Rescue Society, Little Cats Lost and the Pet Therapy Society of Northern Alberta.   The event, “Pawsitively Precious Arts and Collectibles” is a silent auction and dinner to be held April 27, 2012.   I volunteer for SCARS and appreciate the work done by all the dedicated volunteers to help abandoned and abused animals.

The learning curve of the past few months has been pretty steep at times but, taking it all in stride — with gratitude — keeps everything in perspective.    Please contact me if you have comments or questions about my cards and art prints.
