The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."

How beautiful! Is that Mark in the canoe he built?
I was about to ask the same question!
What a peaceful scene
It looks so tranquil.
I can hear the silence (through Levi beating a tree against the trailer), really I can. Ahhhhhhhhh.....
Beautiful :)
OOOOOh this reminds me of 3 more months til our Christmas vacation in INDIA!!!!AWESOME PIC!
Perfect. I love the red in the distance. Are they houses? Roofs? Are those hills or just treetops? The sky and the water are just alike with that line in the middle, and canoe in the foreground - perfect is the only word I can say.
It IS the canoe that Mark built. :)
The red in the distance are the roofs of houseboats in Yellowknife's Back Bay.
It was a beautiful morning.
I am excited for you that it is finished. Was this your first time out with the canoe? Tell us about it! And of course, keep the pictures coming.
Oh, how I love this photograph. I really belong in a house/cabin on a lake where I can take my canoe (or kayak) out for a morning/evening paddle. While I enjoy my occasional jaunts to a local lake, it's just not as convenient as I'd like. Take a peek at what I saw on the lake a few weeks ago.
any questions?
