Grounded by bkbinthecity

Grounded

The Edmonton Queen Riverboat was damaged earlier this year during the Spring thaw when some ice flows crashed in the boat when it was docked at Rafters Landing.
When it was possible it was moved down here to Whitemud Park. It is now being repaired.
I came across it on my walk down one of the paths.
Today marks six months that l was laid off from my job and unfortunately at the moment prospects are not looking good.
So l just remain positive and find things to fill the time each day as l continue looking
What a great find, so good to hear that it will be fixed. So many people suffering and in a similar situation. Praying that something positive will come your way soon.

This picture speaks so much about your own experience of being grounded by the pandemic yourself and the ray of sunshine...well I'll let you make your own interpretation but this image and your text really touched me!

Current circumstances have affected so many, too many in recent times. I hope and pray for all who search for solace and the opportunity to make a contribution to society.

lovely capture

Great shot of this nice stern wheeler boat

I've also been unemployed also and still waiting to hear back from the unemployment office. The latest is they're improving the system. As you say, just keep a positive attitude and find productive things to do!
September 25th, 2020  
Great shot! And I'm glad to hear that you stay positive. These are crazy times and although many are in the same boat, it isn't always easy.
