A few photos from the day. Considering the weather we had quite the turn out with hundreds of cobs given away and many new downtown residents sign up for memberships!

Special thanks to 104st Sobeys for their donations and assistance.

Uptown looks great from that angle. I'd love to see some interior pics to see what the finishing looks like. I think someone on here has a unit, no?

I live in the Uptown, but my unit's currently in a bit of a shambles. Once I'm finished redoing my living room I'll snap a full set of the place all done up.

Went into the valley for a walk this weekend, the colors are incredible. about the only problem was the battery on my camera was crapped out and no spare with me. But what is locked in my brain, wow you got to see this.

I went out to my parents' place just outside of Sherwood Park without doublechecking to see if I actually had a memory card in my camera...

Not been my summer/fall for photos. UGH.

Shot this on my phone for a lark this weekend off my balcony as a test:

Entered the Valley just off Valleyview Cres. Get a great look at ED Clinic. judging by one of your shots Cold, I figured McKinnon bridge or Mackenzie bridge.

Took a bike ride out yesterday, through Mill Creek, and then back home via Cloverdale. Loved Mill Creek, what a spectacular area. Can't believe it's another beautiful natural feature of this city that someone wanted to plow a freeway through. Man did we ever dodge the bullet on that METS plan.

I have more pictures than these of the creek and ravine, but thought I'd start with a handful of the ones that didn't need much processing:












The colours on this one aren't from post-processing, but rather the awesome LED lighting in the pool in front of the Muttart.

^I probably drove by the Seminary twice in my life prior to this reno/expansion and have been by a dozen or so times now in the last 2 yrs.

Looks amazing.
