The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone on my walks here in Montreal. I have no idea what kind of tree this is, but I found it pretty and decided to take these two photos. You can click on any image to see a larger view.

In the photos I shared on my previous blog post, there was a photo I took in a park of a beautiful picnic table that I said was marble. Although it looked like marble, it could very well have been granite! Whatever material it was, it was beautiful! 

This last photo is a poster on the outside of a bus shelter. As I have mentioned in other posts, most signs here in Quebec are in French. So I will translate this into English so that everyone will understand it.

"I dream of a world without depression."

I think it is important to bring awareness about mental health and the importance of taking care of ourselves in both our physical and mental health. I am glad to see signs like this!

The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French)! Enjoy!  :)
