Ice Be Gone

This is the view of Trout Lake from yesterday - sans ice, finally.

Wall Sculpture

This anonymous face has weathered in "Arkansas," our garden shed.

Bridge Graffiti

I came across this graffiti underneath the bridge over Duchesnay Creek where the creek empties into Lake Nipissing.

Full Moon Over Trout Lake

This isn't the recent blood moon, and I'm not sure if it's even a blood moon, but it's a cool full moon photo I dredged up from the archives.

Frozen DR Downspout

Our Dominican Republic downspout is frozen over and needs quite a bit of heat to get back inaction.

Oxford Mills, ON

Here's a heritage house in Oxford Mills, ON.

The Brigadoon Restaurant, Oxford Mills, ON,

The Brigadoon is a beautiful heritage building in the little sleepy village of Oxford Mills, ON, halfway between Kemptville and Merrickville.

Rolphton, Ottawa River

I was down in "the Valley" on the weekend and took this photo en route.  This bridge spans the Ottawa River in Rolphton, ON, over the Rapids de Joachims leading to Quebec.

Punta Cana - not cold

It's so friggin' cold!!  I'd rather be in Punta Cana.

Winter

It does look nice outside in this cold February, but I'm pretty tired of it - bring on some heat!

Alligator

Only 1 alligator in the creek, according to the sign, must be a pet one.

Banyon Trees

I love banyon trees.  This old one in Naples, Florida, arches way over the road, and its trunks are enormous.  I know most trees reveal their age by the number of rings in their trunks, but how would one age a banyon tree? 

Beach Report

Alrighty then!

Drink

Drink - rather an appropriate sign to have in a bar, don't you think?  Bet it would never get the green light in Ontariario.

Old Time Florida Advertising

It's interesting, sometimes, what you see on the walls of washrooms around the world.

Pelicans

Here is a squadron of pelicans taking a a siesta break along the gulf coast in Naples.

Naples, Florida

Here's an aerial photo I took of a photo of Naples, Florida, in one of Naples oldest bars' washrooms.   The original photo was taken quite a long time ago; I'm not sure when.  There are no new $20million+ houses/mansions to be seen.

Winter Escape to Florida

 Alligator Alley in Florida, between Miami and Naples - as flat as the prairies.

I'm still curious as to the contents of this semi-trailer.

Christmas in Chicago

Here's a photo from Chicago's O'Hare airport on Dec. 27. They do it up well there.  Nothing like this going on at Pearson Airport in Toronto.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas All!
