the new place is a change of scene in many ways...the former home, in Dunbar, was a suite in a house on a street of houses and trees...the new street, in Kerrisdale, is also tree-lined, but instead of houses there are apartment buildings...this is the view (east) across the street, with even less sky visible than before...one reason is that I am in a three storey building, and this building opposite has seven storeys....the yellow poplar to the right looms even taller
