May 31, 2011 - Tuesday. I got up to Rabbit mountain early this morning and watched the sunrise. I brought my coffee with me. I was good to have coffee up there. I had the mountain all to myself.

And as the sunshine started to cast beautiful day light, I sat there in quiet gratefulness for such beauty.

Even the birds were feeling my joy.

Sun Flowers await for the sun.

The Little Town of Elko, BC. Another day begins.

The mountain shadows.

Zooming out. A bigger perspective of where I live.

I hear birds chirping. I inhale the soft and cool mountain air freshness. It feels like heaven.

Such a beautiful start of the day.

Gray hues

Fly Away

Catch the sun!

Touch the sun!

May 27, 2011 - Graduation Day

Graduation ceremony. Today I graduate. What a most wonderful feeling. A few years ago, I remember writing a list of all the stuff I needed to do. I saw that the list was long. I realized that it will take a long time. I cried. Once I got over my frustration, I focused on my inspiration and just kept doing what I needed to do. It was a wonderful journey. Another chapter ends and a new one begins.

These are just some of the wonderful people I met during the program. I learned so much from them and myself.

Only a few of us attended the graduation ceremony. Back when I was younger, I didn't care for graduation ceremonies, I didn't know how privileged I was.

After the graduation ceremony Ron and I attended a local concert of the Bisset Singers at the Alliance Church in Cranbrook. Nice way to end the day.

May 22, 2011, Sunday. Spring weather this year seems a bit lacking in sunshine, except for the dandelions. They are so beautiful when they come out. But they have to be cut down before they seed - otherwise it's big trouble.

May 22, 2011, Sunday. These are miniature horses. The smaller one is Chico and the bigger one is called Mini-man. These are Tim's horses.

Little leaves waving at me.

Oh. I don't know what to say...."have a good day, I guess?"

I was sooo happy when I took this photo. I thought we were lost and the possibility of spending the night in the forest was dreadful.

I find this dog mysterious. I always see it by itself. Always keeping distance..just watching.

This dog is mean. It likes to attack. Thank goodness for the fence

Dear Family and Friends,

So far, so good. Can you believe it? 5 months of the year has already gone! Tomorrow will be June 2009 already! Weather is fast improving here in Elko. For the past 2 weeks we had been enjoying wonderful warm weather. We had a few rains, but this last week was mostly sunshine! I had been enjoying cutting the grass and biking around the small town of Elko.

I now enjoy a fluctuating - but healthy weight of 139-141 pounds! I would like to be able to maintain this heathy weight for a long long time.

Spring Semester at the College of the Rockies has officially ended. I am almost done with all the requirements needed to gain entry into the License Practical Nursing Program in Cranbrook. Ron is now back working.

I miss all of you!

By the way, Happy Birthday to all the may Birthday Celebrants! Special mention ofcorse to Manong Ben, Manang Mei Cerezo, Jeannete Jaime, Nikka Antonio, Lilibeth Antonio, Marvinn Antonio, Doyet, Brenda Hill, Ate Imee, Auntie Pet, Auntie Lynn Floresca. Happy Happy Birthday!!!

Big Hugs to all,
Edgar


Rip and Richards, Fernie. I ordered the Hot and Spicy Chicken burger. The red onions still had the film in it. Everytime I had a bite , it was all stringy. It reminded me of a documentary film I had seen just recently about parasites found in meat. It was discusting! Ugggh! Plus it didn't taste any good at all. I will never order that burger from Rip and Richard's ever again! or make sure not to order anything that had red onions in it when I find myself in that restaurant.

One of the things I enjoy watching at home. When the hummingbirds come for a "feeding". There must have been 9 hummingbirds in this shot alone!







I had seen this show on CBC. It was so good.






Dr. Oz and Oprah. I was watching TV one afternoon. . . ..





11 pounds of food! You can eat all of this in a day to provide you with all the daily requirements your body needs! Notice though - that is if you ate it as is. Raw. I guess if everyone ate food like this, none of us would be fat. No processed foods like cheeze or mayonaise, candy, cookies. Upon watching this show, I felt I now want to switch eating as much veggies as I can.








I had a moment there.
