Kiwi Living in Quebec

A former marine and engineer

Grandpop recently passed away peacefully,

in his sleep, at 78 years of age.

He stayed with us on three occasions,

loved sitting at the kitchen table and talking.

Grandpop had a sharp mind;

and though he was not so steady on his feet,

Grandpop could fix anything from nothing with his hands.

Rest In Peace Grandpop!

early Spring morning riverside walk

"Signs of Spring"

The snow is becoming slushly and grey,

The river is starting to thaw and flow closer to the shore.

The sunshine feels stronger and warmer when it touches your face.

Spring's greatest delight is when the crocus and tulips

sprout through the snow and the robins return to our garden.

the frozen river way is almost thawed out!
