165

Another from Quinn's Farm. There is something about tractors and mud that make grown men into little boys… some may say we never grow up,

Remembrance Day

In 2007 I had the honour to attend a Remembrance Day Ceremony at the Field of Honour in Beaconsfield. Men and women whom had given so much so that we today may enjoy life with all its freedoms that we take for granted. I dedicate this posting to all our veterans including those returning from Afghanistan and other current missions... particularly to my son Bruce whom is a medic in the US Navy (stationed with the Marines) and is currently on his second deployment.

Tractor Tire

While at Quinn's Farm we got a ride on the back of a tractor to the back section of the farm. No matter how old you are, a tractor ride is always a fun time... especially when it is muddy.

My New Friend

This past weekend I paid a visit to Quinn's Farm on Île-Perrot. Over the next few days I will share some of the sites I saw. The locals were very friendly as you can see from my new friend.

A texture was added to the image. This texture is from Ava Verino - Soft-burlap texture on www.flikr.com

Ghosts

Ghosts of Halloween Past

Litter

One of my "pet peeves" is the lack of respect kids have for our neighborhood and streets. They treat them like it is a garbage can. They eat and just dump their garbage where ever they are. I guess they figure it will disappear by itself. I have seen everything from beer cans, liquor bottles, numerous plastic water bottles, Tim Horton cups, umbrellas, even pairs of pants and socks as today's photo shows. This photo is one of many which will make up a poster project I am working on (a personal project).

Lunch

Here is a little something since it is getting close to lunch time.

Red Maple Leaf

While walking in Centennial Park in Dollard I was enjoying nature's fall colours.

First Snow

Not to rush it but the first walk with the snow falling was great. Yep I love snow and BIG snowstorms. This  comes from living in Montreal and northern Quebec all my life.

That1Guy Part2

Once again I am pleased to present That1Guy from his memorable performance at the Montreal Jazz Festival in 2009. So let me put some of the images taken to music.... enjoy
