Things with Wings # 326


For your approval I submit an old slate tombstone from the Port Medway cemetary. I love the symbols on old headstones and this winged skull from the 18th century was my find of the weekend.

Communication #60



In 1966 Canada's first satellite communication earth station was built near Mill Village, Nova Scotia. We walked to the site today. The inflatable dome that housed the first station is long gone but we talked to the owner of the local general store. He told us about his father working at the station.

Harvest #143


Kiwi and and dug a row of our potatoes. She is always a big help in the garden.

Walk on the Wild Side


Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
We go for a walk in the woods almost every day and every time Kiwi has to bring a stick home. I often imagine someone else on the trail encountering this wild, tusked beast.
