The Aviator

Watched "The Aviator" twice. Stories about such people, their lives and accomplishments are fascinating. If you're interested, especially if you've seen the movie, here's a good site that covers a fair bit about Howard Hughes, some of his words, with lots of pics. Here's another mostly about the "Spruce Goose".

My Digital Cameras

I take all my photos with Canon's G5 and the little SD110 - both good cameras.

Seen at Charleston Lake Prov. Park

Dual wings - amazing!

Bothered by mosquitoes or bugs? Get close to a dragonfly, and you'll be safe.

Just right 

Interesting Mushrooms. About 3cm high. Found summer of 2004

There's more in the Cataraqui River than we want to know

Took this shot with my tiny Canon SD110 at 1 a.m. this morning. 10 seconds shutter.

Certainly I could never afford this one. Nor any of the previous ones, I'm sure.

I'd also take this one! There are a whole string of building/additions off the back.

"22 LAKESHORE DRIVE (north side) This fine example of Second Empire architecture was built in 1879 by Mr. William Broder, village merchant. Note the conspicuous mansard roof line, rounded dormers, and heavy brackets at the eaves. The deep Classical window and door mouldings encasing large panes of glass all emphasize the vertical. The slate roof and original iron cresting crown this 22 room brick mansion. This magnificent building was also a tourist home "The Ship's Mate"." http://www.glen-net.ca/morrisburghistoricalsociety/walkingtour.html

Here's a style of house I really like. Yes, it's in need of work -- lots of it. But I'd like to have it. Found in Morrisburg.

"19 ST. LAWRENCE STREET (east side) This classic Italianate house with its wrought iron fence was built in 1876 by Dr. Sherman. The corner tower with its tall, four-sided lantern containing four pairs of Italianate round-headed windows is still an area landmark. Note also the classic Italianate porch and front door. Walk east along First Street. With one very obvious exception, this walk down to Ottawa Street is lined by buildings, which date back to before the turn of the twentieth century." http://www.glen-net.ca/morrisburghistoricalsociety/walkingtour.html

Spring is here in Kingston, finally!

My brother just sent me a link to an article you have to read.

I've been studying up on the Seven Deadly Sins. Never mind if you don't believe in 'sin'. Read Henry Fairlie's, The Seven Deadly Sins Today. Notre Dame Press, 1979.

It's bath time for Zack & Jesu. Here's Zack indicating this is not his favourite time. 

Zack didn't seem frightened by this huge bird at all, which is interesting, since he's a fairly shy cat. 

Of our two cats, Jehu and Zack (brothers), it's Zack who appreciates a good show about birds. 

Alright! Hey.
For now, go here.
