Vineland Estates Winery

Taken just before sunset. Vineland Estates Winery was one of twelve wineries you could visit with a 20 Valley passport. Each winery was serving a white and red wine with matching cheeses. At Vineland there was an added bonus of Icewine chocolates for tasting - dark and milk chocolate.

Another Matthew Photo

I've not been feeling well this last week so have not been up to posting to my photoblog nor taking any new photographs. Therefore, I'm just posting another photo of my great newphew, Matthew, taken a few weeks ago.

Equal Time

I showed a photo of my great newphew, Matthew, yesterday. To be fair, here's a photo of his sister, Bethany who slept through most of our visit. It wasn't the company, she had a bit of a tummy upset.

Friends Under the "Flame"

It's an annual tradition for the group that goes to the Ottawa Food and Wine Show to walk past the eternal flame by the Parliament buildings (inside joke!). The light relections above our heads makes an interesting shot. The photo was taken by the person we work for (from New York) and with her camera.
