The mailbox

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Humour, Photography, iPhone

I found this strange mailbox in the village of Sainte-Luce-sur-Mer. Mr. Postman must have been surprised the first time he saw this.

My friends the killdeers…

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Animals, Birds, Photography

The vacations are soooooo nice.

Today a little bit of rain, good, I can take some time to write this post.

In addition to cycling, we are taking a lot of walks along the sea shore. It is full of life.

Here is a juvenile Killdeer, then again I may be wrong… I am not an expert…

Fly Fishing with Valou

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Fishing, Photography, familly & Friends, people

Chateauguay river, Q.C.

I used an old camera, it’s too easy to fall in the water, when walking in the current.

It is back!

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Breakfast, Humour, Photography

The Saturday morning breakfast picture special, is back after a short interruption.

Today I have scrapped a pair of glasses for the cause.

Note that the nose is made of “Rillettes du mans”, personally I must admit I prefer our good old “cretons”.


Happy Saturday to all!

Kiffa is my neighbour kitty. She loves to spend long hours in the front window.

Yesterday she showed me her tonsils…
