August 12, 2026. Sun and Moon. OK, the 'moon' is just lens flare, but this photo taken at the 'maximum' in Ottawa doesn't show any real eclipse effect. We were at the Costco at the time. We also dropped off some electronics recycling and also discovered that the minimum fee at the local landfill is $91, which is rather more than I want to pay just to unload a box of picture frames. #SDDaily.

August 11, 2026. Deer Farm. Went for a bike ride this afternoon and photographed this deer at a farm near St. Albert. I'm somewhat surprised to see a deer farm - I remember there was a lot of controversy around elk farming in Alberta, but this farm just arrived here with no fanfare. Also fixed a gRSShopper problem and verified the location of the electronics recycling facility. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/7rSWaZN

August 10, 2026. Apples. It was a rain day today so I stayed indoors and, well, didn't do much of anything. A rest day. These are apples from the apple tree in our front yard. It's essentially a wild volunteer tree but I like it. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/pATNbVu

August 8, 2026. Castor River. Cycled to and from Embrun today to spend the afternoon visiting family, then watched the baseball game in the evening. That's it for a relaxed Saturday. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/imcpBMQ

August 9, 2026. Ducks. We went to the Upper Canada Migratory Bird Sanctuary today for a short hike and a lot of photos. It was humid and warm and there were a lot of mosquitos. But the pictures made it totally worth it. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/6fSMTtg

August 7, 2026. Friday night at the ball park. There was a great crowd on hand for the Ottawa Titans game against Trois Rivieres. It was country theme night - hence the horse - with fireworks after the game. Very entertaining. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/tib85hC

August 6, 2926. Highway overpass. Almost no wind today, except near the thunderstorms, and I noted how smooth the water on the Nation River is. The highway above is the 417 near Casselman, on my usual cycling route. No, I did not get rained on. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/y0vAOln
