House Fire Update

Andy | Friday, August 31, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips

My previous posting of a house fire with no injuries and no fatalities was taken a few days after the fire. The demolition crew went to work and the steel frame is the only thing left standing. This created a interesting view of Frenchman's Bay.

River Of Grass

Can someone explain how or why a winding path of grass like this one could exist in a ploughed field? Is possible the farmer is also an artist?

Monday Mural - Elgin’s Finest

Andy | Monday, August 06, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips

“Elgin’s Finest” is a mural paying tribute to the railway and the world wars. The painting, created by Rick Johnston depicts soldiers loading themselves onto a train heading to the fronts. For a stronger local touch, a depiction of a father, son and two step sons was incorporated. After the war, only two of the men returned. This mural was sponsored by Branch 41 of the Royal Canadian Legion and the Elgin Regiment. “On Sunday, June 25th, 1916, a crowd of 20,000 gathered at the Michigan Central Station to see off the 940 men of the Elgin Regiment’s 91st Battalion. Traveling by rail from St. Thomas, Ontatio to Halifax, Nova Scotia, they crossed the Atlantic aboard the Olympic and landed at Liverpool on July 5th. The 91st saw action in some of the bloodiest battles of World War I, and one in six died fighting for freedom.” I'm linking to Monday Mural.
