Fredericton
April 19, 2015. We spent the day in Fredericton attending the New Brunswick NDP convention. This is leader Dominic Cardy addressing members at the evening dinner. I also participated, giving a short talk on what progressive education looks like. From ... -
Errands
April 18, 2015. The view from the parking lot of the Caisse Populaire on St. George where we do our banking. I'm away to Fredericton tonight and Banff next week so there has been a fair amount of running around. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1JePNEy -
CBC
April 15, 2015. Went into Codiac Café for my regular morning coffee and was greeted by CBC Morning Radio's morning host Jonna Brewer and Codia Transpo traffic guy Trevor Robson. They gave me a CBC tote bag and I told them I listen only to CBC radio (which is true). They were very pleasant people and it was a delight to talk with them. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1b4BNmp -
Centennial Park
April 12, 2015. I really wanted to see some open running water, ducks and trees, so I took a quick walk in Centennial Park at noon. There was one shadow in the whole scene, but the duck wouldn't budge from it. From Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/... -
Cineplex
April 12, 2015. The highlight wasn't the movie (Insurgent - meh) but rather the large moth that remained on the screen, right in the middle, for the entire movie, even though I told the operators before the previews even started. Way to go Cineplex, y... -
Luc LeBlanc
April 11, 2015. Our local NDP candidate Luc LeBlanc speaks to the small crowd of people at the climate change rally this afternoon. It was hard to get enthusiastic on such a cold and windy day. On the bright site, I think my photo is better than his o... -
Inside
April 10, 2015. This is the inside of a tree, specifically, inside the maple in front of our house. The opening is about 10-12 inches wide; you can see the bark of the main trunk on the outser edges of the photo. Some time long ago a large limb was cu... -
Chocolate
April 9,. 2015. Just for fun. Chocolate, to fit the Moncton Photography group's weekly theme. I didn't have any, but I did go to the Second Cup for coffee and carrot cake. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1yh4d6R -
Brush
April 8, 2015. Yes, I'm fixating on watching the snow recede. This is some brush - or maybe a bush, it's hard to tell after the snoplows have been through it - in front of the office (I swear, the sidewalk clearers who work for the university have no ... -
Melting
April 7, 2015. Another look at the oak in the front yard. As you tell, compared to last time, the snow is down about a foot, and some branches have come free. Still a lot of snow to go, though. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1FD74qD -
Opening Day
April 6, 2015. Andrea asked me whether I was celebrating anything today. Yes! I said. It's opening day for the Blue Jays. So she gave me a chocolate cream egg. It's like it's my day or something. :) From Flickr http://ift.tt/1Jgy1S6 -
Chicken
April 5, 2015. Another day at home mostly puttering about, enjoying the holiday weekend. It being Easter, I thought I'd share anotjher chicken. This one is also on our kitchen wall. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1HEDUaH -
Paint
April 4, 2015. Picked up a power bar for my office and paused to take a picture of paint in the local Kents. The rest of the day I spent on my bicycle, playing Civ, and writing a post fro my blog. Nice way to spend a day off. From Flickr http://ift.tt... -
Time Flies
April 3, 2015. Time flies. This photo was taken a bit late. Not going to beat myself up, just going to take a picture of the clock in our kitchen and call it a good Friday. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1awcbP7 -
Gallagher Ridge Road
April 2, 2015. A couple of meetings, then some paperwork, and then I couldn't refrain any longer from getting out into the country for some blue skies and forest. This is near the end of Gallagher Ridge Road, which runs west off the main highway to th... -
Staying Strong
April 1, 2015. This is the oak tree on my front lawn; the snow is at about the five foot level, which means itr has dropped a couple of feet since I've been gone. You can see the melting snow pulling the branches down - the tree has to be both strrong... -
Take Away
March 31, 2015. One last look at Ghent in the early morning light as I wait for my train to Brussels airport. Surprisingly I was able to get home in only two hops - direct to Montreal, and then to Moncton. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1C42tbP -
Gravensteen

Huberto et Johanni van Eyck
March 29, 2015. Ghent. Cold and rainy and very windy. Yeas, that's my one free day in the city. I made the best of it, walking around 6 km taking pictures.Tonight I have dinner (why do they eat so late?) and tomorrow, first thing, my talk. From Flickr... -
Ghent
March 28, 2015. I've been grumbing all day today about the logistics, but after finally arriving in this railway station I have to say Ghent is truly spectacular - complete with castle! I won't be here long at all but it was truly not to be missed. Fr... -
The Fog Rolls In
March 27, 2015. The hotel at Sausality where I'm staying is an old military base just under the Golden Gate Bridge. In the middle of the night the fog horns started, and this is the sight that greeted me in the morning. That's about all I say, as by n... -
Inside the Muir Woods
March 26, 2015. A visit to the Muir Woods National Monument was on today's lunch hour schedule - we had a box lunch in the bus, and then wandered around the woods. Myself, i walked out as far as the fourth bridge and took the hillside trail back. I ha... -

San Francisco
March 24, 2015. The last time I was in San Francisco it was December 31, 1999, and we watched the Millennium fireworks at the Embarcadero. I stood on the exact spot again and relived old memories. Before that, it was 1984 and Peter Prus and I drove he... -
In Transit
March 23, 2015. Somewhere over Utah. I started the day in an Esso waiting for the bridge to open and ended it in a dodgy hotel in a suburb of San Francisco. In the middle was fractured sleep and airplanes. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1Be4nrj -
Slam
March 22, 2015. Rainmen win in Charlottetown. We drove over the bridge to watch the game and were stranged on the way back - we didn't get home until 5:00 a.m. Good game though. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1GL7EC2 -
