Last long weekend of the summer.

Telling secrets.   
This little bird is telling this bear a secret, can you guess what it is?
This is the last long weekened of the summer & apparently then it slows down a little here, some weekends have been very busy and I learned quickly to avoid parts of town(s).  
As I was drivng to the farmers market yesterday, I spotted a few RED trees - yep.  Stunning amongst the vibrant green still clinging to the season.  This painting glistens like the leaves- as it is covered in irredescent purple'.

I'm out to explore on this beautiful sunshine filled day! The bluejays had me up early - off to a library to borrow some DVDs because netflix streaming- just isnt worth it. lol  I love how much our lives have slowed down with the detox of the internet, wifi, no cable.. peace.
AT last... my love has come along.  

Poppy & Ginger love running laps in this place around the fireplace  - it's very amusing to watch (better than anything Trump) and we have a NEW family member!  Lemonaid.
Lemonaid -yes, I spelled it correctly - help for Bird... a pal.  
So far, they have gotten along perfect - this bird is only 4 months and it does NOT fly very well - because it never has & it is fat - I laugh at Bird watching it eat HIS hemp. lol 
More on the birds & the bee's - soon, today I have places to discover & new friends to make!
The people up here are wonderful, everyone is nice, patient, friendly, hard working...  & creative!
Inspired by all this nature - it's hard not to nurture.

Enjoy the day& every bit of sunshine... it's cool here too.. brrr got on my wooly sweater! Weee!

Highland spider sighting.

29/8/2019

Off the bird deck was the biggest  most vibrant green striped spider I've ever seen - no phone, no photo, it was gone by the time I got back - Thank God. lol  This idea came naturally.. the dew covered web took way to long to admit- although thoroughly enjoyable.

Cannabis in the highlands appears illusive as this spider. What the heck?  
Alcohol in the other hand, is ever prevelant as are water accidents and drownings & highway accidents. Fact.
​I hear it on Canoe - Love this radio station - it's like sitting with good friends over coffee. 
I did see one dispensary in Haliburton but the location was difficult to park, busy on the main drag - I've seen little to no advertising and wondered - was that their decision or the governments? I heard on Canoe they are not doing well and I don't understand why because people ask me about it all the time...    Where do they get it?
Where can they see & EXPERIENCE a cannabis store - with edibles and 'all that' ?  
YES, WHERE.  

I tell you this government fucked up when it came to cannabis- they could have made it an educational, enlightening ENJOYable +Profitable experience.  Instead they chose to stay with the fear mongering, confusing, $$$ overpriced, NO experience bullshit that they did & we ALL know how that is doing. 

It makes me sad because there is a large older community here & I know they are prescribed medications - many cannabis could assist but the majority of them are still drinkers I gather from what I've seen & heard so far, and stuck in that mentality... too bad.   
I'm too tired to try to 'convince' anyone.... I've been trying for a while now. 
At this point I figure - if people are not trying to figure it out themselves - oh well, you can lead a horse to water but you can not make him think & drink.  People ask me if I will grow since we have land, no.  I'm fortunate to have my son grow for me,  some have no idea of the amount of work involved, at least not to the scale as I am use to witnessing & Storm & his friends working.  Work is work.. we have enough work to do here -  Chop Wood & Carry Water and paint.  

It's pouring now, beautiful, soft rain caressing the metal roof - I love it.

Time to paint & smoke some cannabis to ease my arthristis  & TN pain which has not left, not even in Eden - this does not mean I do not still expect miracles!   :)   How about you?  
It's the long weekend - and apparently the last big one up here for the season.  Hoopla!  

I'm so excited for the fall - you have no idea...
I have trees to watch turn colors. LOTS.

Someone needs to open a dispensary in Minden  (growing community) &  head shop - I can't find papers... but you can easily find wine, alcohol & beer in most small grocery/convenience stores... isn't that convenient.

​My latest bear next.

Wipe your paws...

Please, wipe your feet.
I don't ask people to remove their shoes as  this is a house full of dogs & the dirt is swept or vacummed up easily, daily, (central vac- weee) thankfully...  

I'm more concened with what come out of peoples mouths than what comes off their feet.  

Shit we don't need to hear.  Shit that only makes the world not as joyful as it should be.
Crap that reminds you why you don't socialize & look forward to hibenation... lol 
We have n0 time for it nor do we even want words uttered  - words of hate, nasty gossip keep it to yourselves please. I don't get upset by 'it' - I become upset by those who spew it - & try to remember they are struggling.   Still... I don't want it here.

I see God everywhere, in everything & everyone.  ;) I like it this way! hee hee

So, I made this sign for my front door...  not that I have seen bear shit.
I have seen raccoon shit, dog shit, smoked some greatshit.. hahahaa & had a dragonfly land and shit on me the other day (it was huge - had it come out of a human it would be equilavant to the size of our arm) it was gross yet facinating shit to watch - I took it as a 'lucky sign'! lol   

So if you are invited to visit...
 PLEASE wipe your feet & leave your bullshit outside.
This does not to apply to dogs- they never have time for bullshit...
 they are too busy enjoying life.
;)

Private!  
Norm said we have to put up a sign & I reminded we already had one.. lol
To get to our home you take a road with only 3 of us on it and then we are off our own private road...  last week a dump truck came down the road - just a little before they realized they were on the wrong path so it was time to put up a sign.  
What should it say?  Norm & Georgia's - Georgia' & Norms..
Do Not Enter,  KEEP OUT,  Trespassers will be eaten.   lol  
The moment we put it up I started to laugh out loud  - Bumble in the forest! Looks like this is where he belongs and is happiest...  Yeti in Halliburton Highlands.
Now, every morning the girls  &  I go up to see Bumble & thank him for standing guard.  
I believe the neighbours had a surprise and a giggle and have seen a couple of cars stop,  
I don't know if  there are many little kids to see it but big kids get a chuckle too.
The only ones going to see Bumble are those visiting us or them  & We are:
                          
                                        
By  Invitation  Only.   Thanks.

I also want include a no hunting sign.  I don't know that it will make a difference hunting season as I am surrounded by land & hunters but at least here deer will be safe. ;)
About hunting... I get deer hunting, for food as long as it is eaten & all used.  
I  do not and never will agree with 'Trophy Hunting' especially big animals like elephants, Lions, rhinos etc..  I also don't get shooting birds unless a turkey.  Bears, coyotes, wolves can all be shot if problems on your property but they explain how to keep them at bay if possible.
# 1 rule- DO not leave food garbage around.

Bumble NOW makes me laugh every morning, any company that visits says they laugh the second they see him - he is placed so that you do not see him until you turn to go up our driveway - I want to make a BIG BEAR - I'll add it to Norms To Do list- longer than the driveway. hee hee hee

If you are visiting #myhaliburtonhighlands I also want to warn you (I had no clue) You are NOT permitted DAY fires! No camp fires  -no day smores- only after 7 p.m. -  until ? 7:00 am (I'm not sure until what time - so you better learn) BUT if you do have a day fire & the firetrucks show up you can be & are charged about $450.00 per truck, PER hour.
Those would be expensive smores.   I agree with the ban after only living up here a month and seeing how dry it can all get - a forest lined with pine needles.
Install water barrels to water your plants people!
Don't waste one  drop.

Next my front door sign (hee hee) then a Spider.. or bear...
 I don't know, which ever I finish first.  
Our to do list today is long - time to chop wood & carry water.   

Cannabis in the highlands - soon too. 

Have a FUN, Beautiful, Creative day! YOU were created to create!

Every morning we walk the driveway!
Up to the top.. check out the rocks & sunshine & cell service - lol.
On mornings I am sore I do it with a joint - this also helps keep away the mosquitos.
Banana peels really take away the itch out of a bite. 
I keep my peels in the fridge for when they are required.  

Snakes - 2, raccoon 1, deer 1.... chickadees - many! Frogs, grasshoppers & many butterfly & moths, we are surrounded by life  & death - may as well make the best of both & enjoy each moment.
 
Currently on my desk are 3 different projects- creativity is at an all time high & I've thought of a few new cannbis painting's I'd lke to do!  
The common hashtag here is #myhaliburtonhighlands  ... it certinally is.
I also painted one of our waterbarrels - much needed on the days it gets dry up here... better than using our well water.. the day Norm hooked it up- it rained not 5 minutes later. 
No Water - No Life.
No Blue - No Green.

Thirsty?  Take a drink.. & give thanks.

Just a bear & a butterfly

This Bear in green was more about the butterfly Ginger found struggling on the ground - why.. it's wings were still floppy - we put it on a flower & it hung upside down until it's wings firmed and it flew away! A gift for the day...   I think the bear was because I was having mail issues & starteing to get slightly frustraited...  I was a bit of a grumpy bear.. lol - before I called the post office I asked God for help.  There was a major mix up  one- the last occupant put her mail on hold apparently- therefore they were holding my mail - (no mail for the first month) SIGH.. and I did not know 'I had a 'Box #' because NO ONE told us (I do NOW)  all appears to have been sorted happily & with terrific service, my mail was delivered to my door.  I am grateful.   A sweet little hummig bird visited me in the mail & IS visiting me all day where I sit & read the local paper which I enjoy.  I also was short of postage so those waiting for something- have a little longer to wait, thank you. 

The Minden paper is not filled with murder & mahem  but local info, events & happenings - Firework complaints which due to the trees, lake polution, education, animal consideration & compassion - it appears to be taken more seriously than it is - other places.  Many dogs  are mentioned (wonderful) the next day on the local  radio - PLEASE leave your dogs safe at home, inside.. or just don't participate in fireworks.  I train my dogs btw I find  a quite place and I 'don't'  react at all when they go off.  I talk gently to them like when we are playing & I teach them it's no big deal - so far it's working.  That's because we had a dog that was terrified- very sad to witness time & time again & not  be able to help.

As I become more settled- believeing I actually  live here, I'd like to be more involdved in the community eventually, I have a few ideas of how I'd like to help.. serve.
It's pride week in Minden & I plan on showing my support this week,  I recently had a conversation with someone who was upset about the 'Pride flag flying in Minden.."  it really got me thinking...  I don't have any issues with the pride flag or what it represents - I won't be judging anyone over whom they choose to LOVE.  ANY love is better than no love onthis planet full of lonely people.  I shall celebrate it like everyone else, understanding we all need to be loved... it is that simple.  

I am able to post on IG when I drive down to check my mail... Oh well. My phone & comp will soon both be 'land lines' again & apparently, I will be grateful as the area has power outtages, especially in bad weather. Bad weather? I am so anticipating fall & winter!
I inform friends- I'll learn how to paint snow- & they laugh as they think - it's white, how hard can it be.   Ha.  Snow if difficult! Wait & see.

I look forward to the snow!  I'm so excited to witness the beauty of this forest go to sleep and wake gently again... everyday.

time to PAINT!

Kids at the cottage!

Kids at the cottage...  that's what my girls are.   They follow me all day waiting to see what new adventure we will find!  Everyday is an adventure. I've not been able to blog - YES, my wish for no WIFI has come true, remember that if you plan on visiting, the internet so SLOW  I called the company & "suggested' they get the satelite of my roof  if this is what they consider "service" - they should be paying us for the aggrivation.   It's only aggrivating when I have to search or e mail someone or facetime with my son gets disconnected- other than that - I'm fine in digital detox mode.  Thriving, truthfully.

          We've had company - several.. all say the same:  "WOW - you've been busy" because it looks like HOME. What do people think I do all day - paint? hee hee hee WEEE!  YEP. & unpack.  Norm & I  accomplished much this past weekend I know it won't be long before he has his shop built & he is excited- EVERY day  >we< are excited. Now again, we are planning, laughing & having fun- doing chores- go figure!  Trees need to be cut & we have a big renovation in the house soon... I will be putting visitis on hold while we do.  My friend said it looks like our furniture was made for this house- it does... I still can't believe we have downsized- as this house feels bigger than the last - my backyard is for sure!
Still,  daily I am moved to tears - last night in my tub staring at my beautiful wooden ceiling. 
lol   

I am also quite fond of Mindan, I' can't get over how friendly everone is & I've yet to meet someone I did not like..  I live between Minden & Haliburton - close to all; but in the middle with more peace! If you come up this way I reccomend you visit Abby Gardens - I was impressed & will be visiting weekely for some amazing fine food, homemade soups & I get to see the forest chickens! Painting soon.    Bring your kids.
I pinch myself - I am so grateful to be here.  
​
A few photos below of what I do all day- I have a new hobby.. Rock stacking! Wee.
