Sheba feeling reverence for the space. #augustbreak2019 #susannahconway #inthedistance #mtcarmelshrine #sacredground #reverence #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsTrying to get home. Not much wind. #sailing #nowind #taleswithfriendsAugust Break - Water - Sheba loves sailing in the water. Not so much swimming in it. #augustbreak2019 #susannahconway #water #sailing #taleswithfriendsAugust Break - Clouds - “I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all” - Joni Mitchell, Both Sides Now #augustbreak2019 #susannahconway #clouds #photochallenge #bothsidesnow #jonimitchell #taleswithfriendsIt wasn’t just for Chinese food that we drove an hour out of Saskatoon yesterday. We had a few other stops. One was to see the where the original site of Humboldt. It was by accident we learned about it. There is so much history right under our noses and we didn’t know about. Here are just a few photos from our excursion. Too much history to tell on a square. 😀 #originalhumboldt #history #excursion #taleswithfriendsAugust Break - Right Now - Right now I’m remembering the joy we had in the moments out in nature. I’m seeing Sheba bouncing over bridges and the fields of the original site of Humboldt. I see the flowers and grasses swaying in the breeze. I’m thinking of our impermanence and John Denver’s song, Today. “Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine A million tomorrows shall all pass away 'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today” #augustbreak2019 #susannahconway #rightnow #today #impermenance #video #sheba #joy #taleswithfriendsA perfect sunny day for another trip into Saskatchewan. My goal was to sample all the small town Chinese cafes. So far this is the first one - in Humboldt. It was an excellent choice. We shared a delux wonton soup and a Vietnamese dish consisting of shrimps, barbecued pork, chicken and vegetables on top of broad rice noodles. Everything was fresh. No taste of MSG. The surroundings clean and pleasing. #smalltowncafes #chinesecafes #transcafe #humboldt #taleswithfriendsAugust Break - Two - Two legs with feet. What we Chinese call the #11 bus. Aren’t we witty? I walk in my own two flip flops. And the two of us, Sheba and I, all in black. Life doesn’t get any better than this. #augustbreak2019 #susannahconway #two #photochallenge #taleswithfriends
