Weekly Walks... Before the Snow

Before our most recent snowfall, Terry and I took long walks several times a week, each time knowing that it could be our last walk of the season. 

One of my favorite walks was along the Ottawa River in Gatineau, Quebec.







Each time we came, we dress in warmer clothing. It's always cooler by the water. 

(This is the artists' quai... No artists on the quai at this time of year!)





In spite of the chill, the walks were still lovely!

Air next to the water seems especially fresh and invigorating.







This is the first year we've walked in this part of the city. In summer, the area bustles with boaters...

But now that fall is moving into winter, boaters are long gone. 

Most of the people we encounter are about our age...







Last time we were there, we didn't even see any bikers.

Hopefully we'll be able to come back next spring - if spring floods don't keep us away.
