Thunder Bay – Saturday

by

Another orange sun morning. Smoke. Looking for colour wherever I can find it. Well, its 2025 and I am here.  I have been told to not come back for another 2 years.  Maybe they need to change that date on the sign?   Cruise ship passengers walking by might be confused. Common Grackle admiring its reflection … Read more

A bee taking a rest. Looks like something was written there and then repainted.  Were the city’s growing population of POSs busy defacing this mural?  What reason do POS in Thunder Bay have to stop their vandalism?  I don’t see anything.

Gourd flesh after a few days in the sun. What is great about Thunder Bay?

Thunder Bay – Tuesday

by

Gander taking a stroll while waiting for the hatching.

Geese have a nest up there.   Getting the kids down to the water should be interesting.

Smokey this morning.

Getting ready for a day out on the water.

Noticed this article in the tbnewswatch.  I went over and had a look for myself.  Vinyl siding was not around back in the 1860s.  Is there anything left in this house that is original?

One of the city’s parasites has moved his/her/? camp. Left the trash though.  That is the parasite way.

Opening next to Freshco.  Not as big news as Costco though.

Hanging the laundry out is a nice look.

The City of Thunder Bay needs to shut the electricity off  on all outside power points in parks when not being officially used. Without power, the sites become less desirable.

I see no reason why this cannot be done.

Also, any outlets that cannot be shutoff should be locked.  Seriously locked.

This outlet is live.  Free electricity for anyone who wants it.  A great place to set up your tent.  Free electricity needs to stop.

Crab apple trees are bloomimng.

Some tulips are still around.
