There are more pictures coming up. It's not about me, it's about what I see. Thanks to all who said such nice things, you will get a reply soon.

Note to readers: Several hours after this post, a catastrophic event overwhelmed a family member. It was not possible to maintain the web log during the ensuing weeks and months.

My apologies to all concerned.

January, 2010

On the Beach I: This scene also took place on Toronto Island. The dog is my favorite member of this group.



On the Beach II: Two friends from years gone by, doing what friends do best.

Landscape 1: The view from the Lookoff, at Blomidon, Nova Scotia.



Landscape II: Across the Back Harbour at Chester, Nova Scotia.

Feline 1: As a student in Kingston, my travels to the art studio would take me past the house where this fellow would almost always be seen doing this balancing act.



Feline II: These littermates lived with a friend of a friend. I had never seen anything like this before.

Wooden Boat I: At the Wooden Boat Festival in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. The prettiest boat there that year, owned by my former brother-in-law (if he's no longer an in-law, does that mean one of us is now an outlaw?). We sailed into Mahone Bay from Stonehurst. It took quite a while because there wasn't much wind. It doesn't get any more authentic than this.



Wooden Boat II: At the same Festival. The little schooner in the middle ground was one of a number that attended that year.
