La migration automnale des oies des neiges - de toute beauté!

« Chaque année, vers la mi-novembre, plus de 100 000 oies des neiges font escale dans notre ville. On s’arrête pour prendre le temps de les admirer sur notre magnifique rivière Richelieu. »

Personally, recommend.

Fun sidenote (well, to me) substantiating my own assertion: #Bowie has called #Buckley one of the best singers he’d ever heard, his music some of the most soulful, & the album #Grace “one of the greatest albums ever made”.
I concur! Albums in my top faves since released. 💜

It’s not necessarily an expiry date on your packaged foods — it’s a best-before date.

Louise Lecavalier 💜 Always been an inspiration.

David Bowie 💜 Always and forever.

When she joined him on stage during his Sound+Vision show in Montreal in 1990? Well, those who know me know! 😉 (and, of course I was there).

“…dans une société riche comme la nôtre, tu devrais pouvoir être éduqué, logé, soigné physiquement et mentalement, et pouvoir te déplacer sans que ça soit considéré comme un luxe.
Mais le capitalisme nous a fait perdre la tête et on a oublié ce qu’est la vraie richesse.”

Me who loves storms but not happy we’re being hit by snow & geomagnetic ones at same time. Going to miss it again tonight (since 1st sightings, am addicted). For those who missed it last night, potential for even stronger tonight if you have clear skies. May still head out of town for cloud breaks.
