The Kingsville dock is located on the north shore of Lake Erie in southwestern Ontario. Not only is it the home of many commercial fishing boats, but also serves as the winter dock for the MV Pelee Islander ll. This ferry, along with it’s fleet mate the MV Jiimaan, transports people and vehicles from March to December to Pelee Island, the most southern inhabited part of Canada.

UNESCO: A cluster of dozens of islands centred on Vega, just south of the Arctic Circle, forms a cultural landscape of 103,710 ha, of which 6,930 ha is land. The islands bear testimony to a distinctive frugal way of life based on fishing and the harvesting of the down of eider ducks, in an inhospitable environment. There are fishing villages, quays, warehouses, eider houses (built for eider ducks to nest in), farming landscapes, lighthouses and beacons. There is evidence of human settlement from the Stone Age onwards. By the 9th century, the islands had become an important centre for the supply of down, which appears to have accounted for around a third of the islanders’ income. The Vega Archipelago reflects the way fishermen/farmers have, over the past 1,500 years, maintained a sustainable living and the contribution of women to eiderdown harvesting.

The park and preserve was created to celebrate the life of Paul Simons, a native Long Islander, avid hiker and cyclist, who always had a deep appreciation for the outdoors. After his life was prematurely taken away in 1996, the Paul Simons Foundation was formed, and an abandoned 7.5 acres of residential land was purchased to become the future site of Avalon Park. The goal was to celebrate the life of Paul Simon's and his love of nature by creating a natural habitat for future generations to appreciate and enjoy. While the park is managed privately, it is available to the public.

Because islanders have to pay for everything that they throw away, donations abound. The Dumptique is a small building full of items that people no longer want, and every item inside the building is free. Besides leaving things at the Dumptique, we have found some great treasures to take away, as well. It is always a fun run.

Canadian Pacific GP38AC 3002 rests next to lines of stored GSNX coal hoppers at Muskego Yard, Milwaukee, after being dropped off by a manifest. The 3002 is one of a batch of nineteen GP38ACs built by Canada's GMDD in 1970-71. The GP38AC, as built by both GMDD and EMD, is essentially a standard GP38 but uses an AR-10 alternator instead of the GP38's generator. 261 units were produced for ten railroads and one utility company; almost all that have not been scrapped have since been rebuilt, but CP's are an exception. They are also notable for the fact that, for a significant portion of their careers, a group was assigned to CP's isolated trackage on Vancouver Island, BC, where they were at some point relettered for E&N Railfreight (Esquimalt & Nanaimo, today's Southern Railway of Vancouver Island, a subsidiary of the Washington Group's Southern Railway of British Columbia, SRY) before being returned to the rest of the CP system (obviously they were re-relettered). A standard geep at Muskego was a sight for sore eyes, as GP33C-ECOs have been the mainstays of yard and local power in Milwaukee for a number of years now. This unit would later go on to Portage, for local work based from there.

A Cape Island style fishing boat, mostly used for lobster fishing, is an inshore motor fishing boat found across Atlantic Canada having a single keeled flat bottom at the stern and more rounded towards the bow. The Cape Island style boat is famous for its large step up to the bow. They are known for being good "sea" boats, and riding the swells well. The design originated on Cape Sable Island, Nova Scotia about 1905.

A few of my teen islanders performing a dance for Tangaroa, god of the sea. For Miss Teen USA on InSim. Interesting tidbit: Tangaroa is described as being yellow-haired, so when Pacific islanders encountered Europeans for the first time, they thought they were his children.
