Will still be primarily over on the birdie platform but I just thought I'd get myself established here.

Merry Christmas all.
Don’t forget, amidst the hustle and bustle of Christmas, to take some timeout and watch some classic Christmas television.
Here’s a great selection of classic Christmas television made between 1965 and 2001, courtesy of the good folks at Antenna TV.

Not so much a walk but this was pretty much my day. And I didn't take any photos.
Left home, there were stops to use the facilities, stops to eat including the new McDonald's on Main Street, and I also went to Ottawa U and Rideau Centre before walking home up Bank Street.

Tonight was my annual walk to check out the Christmas decorated houses along Taffy Lane in Orleans, starting on St Joseph Boulevard near Place d'Orleans.
The bad news, the cold and phone battery made a bad combo and I had to do most of the posting when I got home.

Today's walk started downtown at the National Arts Centre and went on a tour of much of Centretown.
Between the early excess snow and cold lately, I haven't the motivation much to go out and do my walks. Glad I was able to get out today for a bit.

Saturday late afternoon train ride on part of the new REM Deux-Montagnes LRT train.
I only did the line between Du Ruisseau and Ile Des Soeurs (Nun's Island). I also got off at all the stations shown here, and explored a bit except Montpelier and Canora.

Today's walk went from Casino du Lac Leamy to the Museum of Civilizations in Hull, to check out the Retro Canadian music exhibit.
I spent the afternoon at the museum, parking is stupid expensive so I parked free at the casino and walked there. And back a different way after..

Today's walk was a long overdue walk of the Merivale/Meadowlands area, starting at Emerald Plaza and visiting Merivale Mall.
A long time favorite area of mine to walk in.
Apologies if the map looks different than usual, I'm still getting used to Windows 11 and Paint.

This evening's pre-Halloween walk started on Bank Street in the Glebe, did a few streets in The Glebe before crossing Bronson and heading towards Booth, Preston and Little Italy, all to see the Halloween decorations, including some impressive Halloween lawns.

Today's walk was in the east end of Gatineau, starting at the Supermarché Metro on Boulevard Maloney Est and went on a walk of the nearby area, in search of three covered bridges.
Unfortunately, some time was lost when I had to backtrack due to an unexpected fence.

Today's walk... inspired by a bus schedule....
Started in the Glebe, went over to the Pretoria Bridge and then down Lees Avenue, a short detour along Mann and Chapel and then took the full length of King Edward down to Rideau Falls before returning the same way.

Today's walk started in Hull at Casino du Lac Leamy (during daylight!) with free parking. Then I went up to Les Galéries de Hull and Boulevard Saint-Joseph, through the Wrightville neighborhood and along Boulevard Moussette, then through the Parc de la Montagne area a bit.

Third and final walk today. Starting at Convent Glen Mall. A short but sweet off-season walk on Taffy Lane in Orleans, best known for its' over-the-top Christmas lights in December. A walk I do every December.
