October 27, 2026. Still Life. According to Andrea, off-gassing from the bananas helps the avocados and fruit ripen. Who am I to disagree? Today was doctor day, with Andrea in the morning and me in the afternoon. I made a *lot* if progress while working on my phone in the car, learning about indexDB. #SDDaily.

October 25, 2026. Leaf. We went for a hike in the Upper Canada Migratory Bird Sanctuary today - I call it a hike but we spent much of the time looking at birds and small woodland creatures. It was a beautiful fall day, maybe the last nice day of the year. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/OU0qlZ8

October 24, 2026. Mum and Bernie. This is a painting of my mother and her second husband Bernie. We went visiting today and saw the painting in the living room. We stayed for supper and had some outstanding meatloaf. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/15aWKFk

October 21, 2026. Eyes.This is a close-up of Char late in the evening. I had fun today writing a bridge between Discord and CList. Just wondered whether I could do it, and I learned a ton about Discord doing it. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/uHfZ4jk

October 20, 2026. Cat TV. Our cats are indoor cats and have no real interest in going outside (it's big and it's scary,) but they enjoy watching what's happening. This is Emma taking in the view. I've spent some time on CList this week setting up the new user experience to make it as simple as possible. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/aZbe8dk

October 19, 2026. The Petting Zone. These are stair railings I pass by when heading outside or into the basement, and the cats have learned that we will stop there and pet them. A ritual has developed. This is Char who is using one of the posts as a pressure point, which he likes. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/FdEpzwS

October 18, 2026. Forest Valley. We went for our Sunday walk today in a chunk of forest sandwiched between the RCMP training grounds and Orleans. There's no real parking and no good way to get there, so it's pretty quiet. I took the opportunity to get a new high quality photo, thanks to Andrea. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/ycHfwl4

October 17, 2026. Sherwood Forest Mug. It has been a number of years since I went on a memorable trip to Nottingham, and I made sure to take a side trip (by local bus) to Sherwood Forest, where I went on a long hike and bought this mug. On the same trip I also visited Newark Castle as well as Lincoln during a steampunk festival. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/FMa5OtQ

October 15, 2026. Chipmunk. We took what might be the last nice fall day and spent it hiking in Gatineau Park, just north of Ottawa. The trees were in great form, it was a little cool (but warm after climbing 250 m) and the sky was a bright clear blue. #SDDaily #forest #photography. URL: https://ift.tt/R8hsvHE

October 14, 2026. Local Democracy. This was the view on YouTube for the local candidates forum - there was a pretty good turnout in person and online. Sound quality wasn't great, though. But it gave me a really good feel for the dynamics of the election. Three hours well spent. #SDDaily #Casselman #democracy. URL: https://ift.tt/Wz8Vbut

October 13, 2926. Into Fall. This is the back yard now as all the leaves are turning colours and the weather is cool and gray and rainy. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/p5VsYog

October 12, 2026. Bar end. This is the curtain holder in our bedroom. It wasn't fastened very securely. We had a quiet Thanksgiving, with turkey chili and pumpkin pie. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/Zwcomx1

October 11, 2026. Trappers Park. Scene from an unnamed forest behind Trappers Park, wedged in between Blossom Park and the LRT. It's some of the nicest forest we've seen; it's our first visit here but it won't our last. #SDDaily #photography. URL: https://ift.tt/kyHx0Gz

October 9, 2026. High Falls. This is a little park along the Nation River in Casselman, viewed as I wait for roadwork being done on the bridge. Just a short trip to Metro today; I was a bit under the weather this morning. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/qsyFjWL

October 8, 2026. Pumpkin Pie. Costco was completely sold out of turkey (except for whole frozen turkeys, which is a bit much for the two of us) but their famous pumpkin pies were in stock and, well, it's tradition. #SDDaily. URL: https://ift.tt/AQgyW3J
