Chateau Laurier and the Rideau Canal

Image
April 5, 2026. We took a walk up and down the Rideau Canal today. It's probably the worst time to do this - it's not all snow-covered and frozen, as in the winter, nor all lush and green, as in the summer. But it's still interesting and it's nice to show what the off-season looks like. https://flic.kr/p/2s677Ar April 5, 2026 at 10:02AM

April 3, 2026. Lunch. I liked how bright my lunch looked today. Today was very much a rest day - any ambition I had disappeared with the need for an afternoon nap. They say retirement is one of those stressful life events. I can relate. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/mxT7PMd

April 2, 2026. A last look at my office before I take things down. It was a decent office but I never felt any love for it. My last day in this building will be next Tuesday, with my only objective to take my own stuff out of it and leave NRC's stuff behind. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/1evmAV2

April 1, 2026. Sunshine in the Back Yard. The weather has turned a bit. Working from home, getting files archived and my post-NRC Web page set up. #SDDaily.. URL: https://ift.tt/jyDMZxl

March 31, 2026. Productive day. Went to the dentist for the hygienist, X-rays and a checkup and left with zero cavities. So yay! Got my final time sheets completed, and wrapped up the project with DRDC. Also we had our last team meeting. Brought home many of the speaker's gifts I've accumulated over the years - not sure where to put them but I value them. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/5veiTCE

March 29, 2026. We went for a walk along the Ottawa River Valley today - it's that point where there's not enough snow for winter sports but there's too much snow for bicycles - the perfect day to walk these trails. https://flic.kr/p/2s4Mjdo March 29, 2026 at 09:02AM

March 23, 2026. Robin. They have finally arrived, but the whit behind the bird here is snow. They're probably thinking, what did I do to deserve this? #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/PLUWmiV
