    Downey Woodpecker

    by
    February 8, 2024. A bright splash of red in a winter forest. I had big ambitions for today but instead spent it fixing the last of the bad bugs in CList. I'm sure many smaller ones remain. I also spent quite a bit of time petting a cat that was sleepi...

    Snowshoers

    by
    February 7, 2024. Two people snowshoeing through the Mer Bleue forest. Having a very quiet week with limited ambition; things will get busy in a hurry next week so I'm making the most of it. https://flic.kr/p/2qKrrp3

    Chickadee

    by
    February 6, 2025. Another photo from our walk in the forest. This year, I'm focused less on taking a photo every day (that may change) to trying to post them more or less regularly. https://flic.kr/p/2qKikfi

    Nuthatch

    by
    February 5, 2025. We went for a walk in the Mer Bleue forest again. The snow is getting deeper and it was a bit harder to walk. The birds were all out despite the cold weather. https://flic.kr/p/2qKidnG

    Broadcast

    by
    December 29, 2024. TSN broadcasters doing their analysis during the first period intermission at the Czechia-Slovakia game in Ottawa. The game was pretty good through the outcome was never really in doubt. #hockey #tsn https://flic.kr/p/2qCABBP

    IIHF Trophy

    by
    December 29, 2024 extra photo. This is the IIHF Men's World Jr. trophy, which doesn't appear to have a name, with Andrea and I posing behind it. What you don't see is that the trophy is tilted toward the back, so when it's photographed like this it ap...

    Double Dz’s Diner

    by
    December 27, 2024. Just outside Peterborough, Double Dz's Diner offers better doughnuts and filling food for the weary traveller. It also features this work of art outside the front. Today we drove back from Barrie through generally good weather. http...

    Springwater

    by
    December 26, 2024. Springwater Provincial Park, near Barrie. The park was actually closed, but we went in anyways and saw a lot of logging activity. Not old and damaged trees, as you might expect, but the strongest and healthiest. Sad. https://flic.kr...

    Bill

    by
    December 25, 2024. This is my brother Bill, who I now realize is the spitting image of my grandfather on my mother's side. We were there at their home near Fergus to visit family for the holiday. https://flic.kr/p/2qC8cyZ

    Mall Santa

    by
    December 24, 2024. Free day in Barrie. We went down to Georgian Mall. This was the scene at the mall Santa booth - I watched for a while while Andrea was in the Shoppers. I picked up a buff and some goggles for my upcoming bike trip. Quiet relaxed day...
