Faith is ready to play in the Contemporary Showcase...

Here are the Youtube links to the recordings of Faith playing her Contemporary Showcase pieces at home.

Both of the pieces were composed by Canadian women in the 1900's.

The first piece is Prairie Winter - composed by Heather Laliberte in 1994 while travelling in a van from Winkler, Manitoba to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on an extremely cold winter day.


The second piece is Footloose composed by Mary Gardiner (1932 - 2010)

Had to take this... looked ready to make into a puzzle!


Also at Island Lake

Picture of the Day 11-11-11


S.V. Island Lake
North of Athabasca

The ice was forming right before my eyes!
Wherever it still looks like water, it's actually the rain on the ice. 
Later it snowed and now it looks like a big white field.

Picture of the Day 11-10-11





On our way to Athabasca we had to stop to get this quick shot... 

it's out of the vehicle window and we were travelling on black ice -

I'm so happy my hubby stopped for me :-) 

So even though it's not a totally clear pic - it's cool to see her running.
... 
Her calf was following but I couldn't get them both on the pic in such short notice.
