Hi! Glad you took the time to drop by. As I mentioned in the ABC Wednesday introduction, I'm presenting a slideshow of my own
neighbourhood. I live in the municipality of Delta and the village of Ladner, which is about 20-30 minutes south of the city of Vancouver. I'm very close to the United States border and often go across to Point Roberts for gas or a photo shoot or to take the dog swimming in the pristine waters of Lighthouse Point. While looking at my photos, you might think I live in a rural area way out in the boondocks, but actually, we're a little oasis in the middle of urban and suburban living. When I go for walks with Tegan, I feel like I'm in a forest in the wilderness, yet know that I'm
next door to all the
necessities of life in a suburb.
So turn up your sound, settle down for about 5 minutes, and enjoy the show. Oh! Before you do that, be sure to give an air toast to the
naughty but
nice Denise
Nesbitt, the creator of ABCW, and to the
nutty but
noble Roger, our administrator!

You never fail to relay nature naturally in a nifty way! Thanks.
Your slideshows are always interesting but this one is in a neighborhood all it's own.

Love the blue heron and your gorgeous sea and mountain scapes, - your smilebox presentations never fail to delight, Leslie.
Leslie, I'm so glad you're my neighbor in ABC Wednesday land!
So beautiful Leslie.
You do live in a jewel of a place.
Thanks for sharing.
another wonderful post.
Makes me SO homesick, Leslie.
We were at the coast for a few days in July, but I was sick one of those days, so Dick went out with his cousin. We had a family party one day, and one day at Blackie Spit, introducing Lindy to the ocean (she didn't like the taste of it) but that's all but then had to head back via my high school reunion in Kelowna.
Your photos are gorgeous.
Sigh.

Thanks for the invite, I enjoyed my visit to your neighbourhood, gorgeous photographs.
Gorgeous pictures.. the sunsets, the sea and those pumpkins... what colour! Beautiful.
You are in a great place.
especially love the heron
That is a Novel idea, a good video.
The first thing I thought of when I read "neighborhood" was Mr. Rogers, but Point Roberts struck a chord and reminded me of this little video my British Columbia cousin posted on Facebook not too long ago.

Howdy, neighbor!
Oh what a neighborhood, there is something for everyone to love. The white owl is so precious and to have the Bald Eagle living near would be so enjoyable.
