Sunday Part 2 - more October fun!

okay! Here is post 2 for Sunday - that might be a bit confusing considering post 1 is AFTER this one...hmmm...creativity doesn't have to be logical ok? BACK OFF!

We had a very slowwwww Sunday morning including a nice sleep in and lounging over coffee as we planned the next two months. We have a VERY busy October and November ahead of us but the good news is there are many exciting times on the horizon...

We even had to schedule a day to decorate for Christmas. Yes, we are fanatics when it comes to Christmas. The "blessed" day will be November 11, Remembrance Day. For some that may seem rather early but when you put up 5 (or is it 6 now) Christmas Tress you want to get the most of your time with them!!!

Ok, enough about Christmas, we haven't even reached Thanksgiving yet.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving and all things fall, we decided to spend some time exploring this city of ours in all its fall glory.

Our first stop was Rockcliffe Park - neither one of us has ever been. What a perfect day for our first visit. The weather was PERFECT and there was even a wedding at the Pavillion.

These are a few of my favourite shots.

Is he a hottie or what? I got so many amazing shots of him today! YUM YUM YUM.
Walking in the leaves...
And now on to the Byward Market

Some of you may have heard of his first resto called Beckta Dining and Wine

The new address
