RE: Autumn Leaves and Flowers From My Street for Sublime Sunday
Beautiful capture of the autumn colours and the two flower blooms, Keith. We are having cooler nights but sunny days. Summer seemed to just fly by..I think it’s true about time going faster when you’re older. 😊
We're having the same weather on both our islands today! Different oceans though. Did you know they smell different? I always remember taking the ferry from Cape Breton Island to Newfoundland, and the smell of the brine, and fish and I don't know... icebergs and rain perhaps. Doesn't smell like that here. Those memories are from 45 years ago but they are still fresh in my mind. I honestly think there were so many more fish in the sea in those days that the air smelled different. For all I can tell, the Pacific smells no different than Lake Ontario. This was a big surprise to me when we moved here.
I’ve never been to the Pacific Ocean but love the smell of the Atlantic...especially the seaweed. I lived near Lake Ontario years ago and swan in it. Not a strong smell that I can recall. Yes the fish have definitely declined over the years...so much commercial fishing.
