Thunder Bay – Thursday

Another sunny morning.

Trash in context. Notice that there is 28 grams of sugar in every cup. Since a teaspoon of sugar weighs 4.2 grams, that means every cup of chocolate milk has approx. 6.5 teaspoons of sugar in it.

Trash in context.  Each stick contains 10.4 grams of sugar.  And who can eat only one?

Trash in context. 12 grams of sugar in this carton.  Yes, milk has lactose which is a form of sugar.

Public art piece.  It represents the futility of the public trying to scale the bureaucratic walls of government.  Its very powerful.   Makes you think, doesn’t it.

Painting the Marina park caboose.  It is open to the public on some days.  Worth a look if its open when you are down there.

Another bottle of Pepsi tossed after only having half of its contents consumed.   People obviously have waaaaay too much money.

Pile driving continues on the construction site of the “mistake on the lake”. I understand there are around 300 piles that will be driven into the ground.  Wow! That is a lot of steel.   Sounds like the ground is not that solid.

Looks like we are going to see some hydroseeding taking place around the Pool 6 site.

Not around this thing though.

Do these things actually work?

The CCGS Samuel Risley. Lots of gulls sunning themselves on the breakwater.

Someone is selling this downtown.. I see al of these laying around.

Remember when owning a computer of any kind was a major financial investment?  Laptops were extremely expensive?  Now you can see them laying around on the street. Just another piece of trash.

The old pole cannot be remove until TbayTel moves its stuff from old to new.  This simple process  can take years, maybe decades.  I am sure there are hundreds i of poles in the city that await TbayTel’s attention.  I guess the company is too busy handing tens of millions of dollars over to the city every year. Handing over hundreds of thousands of dollars to local community groups.  Maybe, just maybe, some of all that EXCESS cash could be used to clean up this dual pole situation?  Maybe?

and then there is today’s AI art piece…a minimalist depiction of a very complex scene
