A kitchen sink is filled with various coffee makers and thermos containers that we use throughout the week. The equipment is being washed out with vinegar and boiling water.

Saskatchewan Drive is pictured from the author's balcony, looking westward out to 109th Street with the University of Alberta in the distance.
The roadway has 2 lanes for traffic, and city vehicles are placing pylons and markings in the outside lane so that bicycles and other alternate transportation devices can use the lane alongside a very busy shared sidewalk. Highrises and houses line the Northside of the roadway, and the treed river valley is on the Southside of the roadway.

A restauarant table features a beef stir-fry with spring rolls on my plate, while the wife’s features a breakfast croissant. The drinks are a latte and an Americano(Canadiano).

A view from our balcony looking down the North Saskatchewan River from central Edmonton. The picture was taken after a snowfall, and the river valley park system is visible underneath a series of Highrises west of Downtown Edmonton. 4 bridges are visible - the new Walterdale Bridge, the High Level Bridge, an LRT bridge, and in the distance Groat Road Bridge.

View of Saskatchewan Drive and river valley around Kinsmen Fieldhouse and UofA. Above the ground are wisps of precipitation partially obscuring the view from our balcony.
