Because of the recent warm weather I have really noticed a lot of fall colors - they are not great in this region anyway but there is usually some color - but I did notice a few displays and have included them in this photo essay.
I also wanted to stop at my old high school Alma mater - Vancouver College -to see the new all weather field that is to be officially christened this weekend and since it is only a two block detour it was easy to pass by.
The field looks real good - as a private school - VC doesn't receive Capital funding from the government so this was all privately raised donations.
Finally reached QE Park - one of the highest points in the City and its spectacular views - there is a sunken garden and a conservatory there - the water fountain is new - they recently upgraded and expanded the reservoir that holds emergency water for the City and put in the shooting water display when they were finished with the project - a nice addition to the Park.
Before long it was time to get on the bike and go have lunch and then head home.Next up - a bike trip to Lonsdale Quay.
Cheers
Dennis
