Buildings

A few of the buildings around my office.  I am afraid of heights, but have no problems in tall buildings... Not sure why...!

Love the reflection of the clouds on this building!
A beautiful church in the middle of downtown.
My old office building
I wouldn't want their job - that's for sure!!

St-Sauveur - Nature

St-Sauveur is not only a cute village - it has some ski hills and also some beautiful nature spots!  These I took within walking distance of our chalet.

Earlier in the day, when it was very cloudy:



It cleared up a bit later -

St-Sauveur Weekend

As I mentioned yesterday, to celebrate my in-laws 50th Anniversary, we spent the weekend up north, in a little chalet with close family.  It was a wonderful weekend, even if it rained (and snowed!) most of the weekend.  We did get to go for a short walk Saturday morning in St-Sauveur.  St-Sauveur is a beautiful little village with lots of shops and restaurants.   
The church is beautiful - too bad the sky was grey - will have to go back when the weather is better!
And I did play tourist... This sign was in front of a Beaver Tail pastry shop (that I never ever got to taste!) - if you want to know more about this pastry - beavertailsinc.com/
Sorry about the fuzzy pic - but just had to share!! ;)

50th Anniversary

Just came back from a wonderful weekend with family.  We celebrated with my inlaws their 50th Anniversary.  For the occasion, we rented a little house up North and spent the weekend laughing, crying, eating and celebrating this wonderful event.  50 years - wow!!!
