A good variety at Presqu'ile; lots of beauty.

 

The King of Butterflies

At Presqu'ile Prov. Park a couple of weeks ago, we found a few of these fine creatures.

Canada

We viewed the First Peoples Hall and The Canada Hall; both were excellent. The Grand Hall is shown here. 

Thursday's Adventure

Today we went to the Canadian Museum of Civilization in Gatineau (Hull), Quebec. On the other side of the river you can see the Canadian Parliament Buildings in Ottawa. We had gone to see the Petra Exhibit, but since no photographs were allowed, you'll have to settle for the "Bee" pictures and other shots taken during the day. The bees were busy in the flower bed by the entrance to the museum.

Fabulous Pictures

Once in awhile I run across some fabulous pictures taken by others. I came across a series of extreme storm shots that I think are just amazing. I'd love to go on a "storm chaser" expedition.

I'm recalling that as a young boy of around 12, how exciting it was when powerful thunder and lightning storms came over our house. Once, before it started raining, I ran through the back field toward the big tree where I had built a tree fort. I felt scared and exhilarated running across the field. As the wind picked up, with thunder and lighning cracking the air, I felt very small in the face of such power. It gave me a sense of how all powerfull God must be.

Congestion

This thing is, that Jason's team had no subs, so no one could rest. It was a brutal 30C that day. The other team had lots of subs, and a bench of women cheering them on. During break these cheering ones gave the team encouragement and sliced oranges. They referred to themselves as the athletic supporters.

We need Young Eyes For this!

It's hard to see what's going on here, even with good eyes. I used a jeweler's loupe for this job, but even then ... 

Fixing my Toshiba e830 PDA

I've taken my laptop apart a few times and made some good repairs, but it's a different story with a PDA
