Quebec City Halloween

 Last October we were in Quebec City.

Your can read about and see a stroll through the old city  here.    The town hall in the square of the old city was decked  with adorable Halloween decorations.

  An eerie  tree  filled with  bats and crows,

A   line hanging full  of  the witch’s clothes,

A pumpkin patch with a  big black cat,

Who  rides on the broom with the witch in her hat.

 Piles of pumpkins and flowers and gourds  in baskets,

Crawling  with spiders  dressed in black furry jackets!

Watching ‘ore all were two  ghouls of some type, they were very tall, but the did not gripe

About all of the people snapping their image,

They  just stood there and smiled and  watched over the village.

If I hear any snickering about this poem these lines, they will be deleted.

Hope to see you for Potpourri Friday!

Until next time,

Honey

Stroll Thru Quebec City

  Last October my hubby and I were in  Quebec City for a few days.    It is a  stunning city  and the  Fall color  was  breathtaking ! 

Quebec City  is one of the oldest cities in North America and the spectacular old part of the city still has it's fortified walls.

Although  I'm fascinated with taking pictures of architectural details such as doors,  windows, steeples and such (and have  a lot of them),  I  was really taken by the spirit of the street scenes,

the shops and the Fall decor.

Not sure what was going on in here but the translation is
“skin to skin”.

But,  I do know what was going on in here:  Fabulous French  Food  which was  oh si delicieux et  fortement recommande! 

It's a beautiful place to visit, especially in the Fall, and  I have been trying to talk Mr. 2805  into making the trip again to catch the color and the feel of The Old  City with my new camera.  The pictures would be so-o-o-o much better. 

No luck so far.

  

PS: 

This is an adaption of one of the first posts I did when I started blogging, but since I am a bit "under the weather" and it seems so appropriate for Fall  (plus not many people saw it) I decided to post about it again.

Please join me for Potpourri Friday

Until next time,  Honey

A Stroll through Quebec City

  On a  recent trip to  Quebec City,  I discovered a  stunning city with  breathtaking Fall color  (something usually not seen  in my part of  Texas.)

Quebec City  is one of the oldest cities in North America and the old part of the city still has it's fortified walls. 

Although  fascinated with taking pictures of architectural details such as doors,  windows, steeples and such (and have  a lot of them),  I  was really taken by the spirit of the street scenes.

A Stroll through Quebec City

I was so taken with Quebec City,  I want to share a few of my pictures with you.   It is so stunning  and the Fall color was breathtaking (something usually not seen in my part of  Texas.)

Quebec is one of the oldest cities in North America and the old part of the city still has it old fortified walls.

Although I am fascinated with taking pictures of architectural details, doors,  windows, steeples and such (and  have a lot of them),  I  was really taken by the spirit of the street scenes.

which we filled up on.

Yea!  I have my first follower, Rose of the

Open Letter From a Virgin Blogger

WELCOME! 

Dear Fabulous Bloggers,
I have been lurking around for months, totally amazed by your talent, imagination, artistic ability, creativity and ultra-fabulous photography!  You share great friendships and  a sense of community.  After careful consideration (I'm a Libra so there is often a balancing act involved) and some counseling by my new friend Jodie of Everything Vintage,  I have decided to take the plunge.  Not that I have anything special to contribute,  my goal is to participate and have fun!   
 Beware:  It may take me a while to learn all the "thingys and doodads" a blogger is supposed to know.  But rest assured that I will not let my blogging time get in the way of my blog-reading time.

Now here’s a confession: my post title claims to be a Blog Virgin,  but that’s not the absolute truth as I have  “played around”  a little by posting a few entries to a travel blog.... but I haven’t done it lately.   So with that out of the way, here goes……I hope that you enjoy the pictures of Halloween Decorations which were taken last week in Quebec City.

By the way, you can call me “Honey”.

....Until next time, Honey
