I am a former teacher and now happy to be a Grandmother of a 7 and 13 year old Granddaughters, 9 and 11 year old Grandsons. I have two grown daughters and spend my spare time gardening and taking pictures of the fruits of my labour.

I am also a baseball (Jays)and softball fan (my daughter's team). I collect post cards and children's books and still do some sewing when the Scouts need new scarves.

I enjoy touring around Ontario looking for places to take a few pictures while keeping an eye out for used book and antique stores.

I have added my Beatles memorabilia collection and would enjoy hearing any comments from other Beatle fans.

I have added an album of antique photos some of which belonged to my husband's uncle because I thought they needed to be out of their box and available to be seen. I especially enjoy the children's portraits and of course the fashions of the time.

My photostream is becoming a Garden diary. That's OK. I am trying to add a few new photos everyday of the changing garden as it goes through the summer as well as juggling duties with a new Grandson.

If you would like to use one of my photos for educational purposes all you have to do is ask my permission and I will be most happy to oblige.All I require is that you ask first.
