A message with massive impact to all chosen ones and star seeds:
You are the water of water the source of love your light and your being is what awakens those around you.
Through you they can realize what it means to be truly loved without prejudice.
Not everyone will be able to understand you emotionally because you have a different perspective on the world, but be sure that the waves of your love will reach even the smallest corner of the universe because you are and have always been exactly what humanity has wanted for eons.
Yes, you heard right, you are a wish that has come true, which is also the reason why you often have the feeling that you are the fairy godmother for others.
Your fairy godmother is also on her way to you. You may not realize it yet, but love, joy, happiness and many magical miracles are on their way to you.
You have the gift of touching the innermost part of each individual and awakening what lies dormant in each of them, simply through your being.
Be as you are, because that is exactly where your magic lies. You may not always see it, but your light can be seen and felt throughout the entire universe.
You have already experienced what an interstellar encounter with someone from another star race feels like.
Be sure you will get to know a few others. The universe will guide you and you will realize and feel that your intuition is getting stronger.
We know that it is not always easy to understand what we want to give you, but as you already know, it will come to you when the time is right.
Know that we are incredibly grateful for what you are doing because it takes courage, strength and an iron will and you have had all of that since the beginning of time.
The message from Atlantis: The Age of Aquarius has already begun and you are all in the middle of it The love you feel will change, it will be deeper than anything you have ever known. You will realize that you will love more than just one person. Because love is what connects you all, just like the water of water that embraces our Mother Earth.
No matter where you are, what you are doing, take a moment to close your eyes, listen to the music and feel the gratitude flowing through your body.
Gratitude that you woke up this morning, gratitude that you can feel and sense this very moment, because you are all in the here and now. Take the time every day to pause for a moment and to realize what you are grateful for that day, because gratitude is the sister of love.
Raise your vibration now because the ascension process has long since begun.
With kind regards your Universe
Eine Botschaft mit massiver Tragweite an alle auserwählten und Sternensamen:
Du bist das Wasser des Wassers die Quelle der Liebe dein Licht und dein Sein ist es das die Menschen die dich umgeben erwachen lässt.
Durch dich können sie erkennen, was es bedeutet, wahrhaftig und ohne Vorurteile geliebt zu werden.
Nicht alle werden dich gefühlt begreifen können, weil du einen anderen Blickwinkel auf die Welt hast doch sei dir sicher das die Wellen deiner Liebe auch jeden noch so kleinen Winkel des Universums erreichen wird den du bist und warst schon immer genau das was die Menschheit sich seit Äonen gewünscht hat.
Ja du hast richtig gehört du bist ein Wunsch, der war geworden ist das ist auch der Grund, weshalb du oft das Gefühl hast, dass du für andere die gute Fee bist.
Auch deine gute Fee ist auf dem Weg zu dir du magst es vielleicht noch nicht erkennen doch Liebe Freude Glück und viele zauberhafte Wunder sind auf dem Weg zu dir.
Du hast die Gabe das innerste eines jeden einzelnen zu berühren und das zu erwecken was in jedem einzelnen von ihnen schlummert und das ganz einfach nur durch dein Sein.
Sei wie du bist, denn genau darin liegt deine Magie du magst es vielleicht nicht immer sehen doch dein Strahlen sieht und spürt man im ganzen Universum.
Du durftest bereits erfahren, wie sich eine Interstellare Begegnung mit jemandem von einem anderen Sternenvolk anfühlt.
Sei dir gewiss du wirst noch einige andere kennen lernen. Das Universum wird dich leiten und du wirst merken und spüren das deine Intuition stärker wird.
Wir wissen das es nicht immer leicht ist das zu verstehen, was wir dir mitgeben wollen, doch wie du bereits weisst, wird es sich dir zeigen, wenn die Zeit reif ist.
Sei dir gewiss wir sind unglaublich dankbar für das, was du tust, denn es erfordert Mut Stärke und einen Eisernen willen und all das hast du schon seit Anbeginn der Zeit.
Die Botschaft von Atlantis: Das Wassermann Zeitalter hat bereits begonnen und ihr alle seit mittendrin Die Liebe, die ihr empfindet, wird sich verändern sie wird tiefer sein als alles, was ihr jemals gekannt habt. Ihr werdet erkennen das ihr mehr als nur einen Menschen lieben werdet. Denn die Liebe ist das, was euch alle verbindet, genau wie das Wasser des Wassers, das unsere Mutter Erde umfasst.
Ganz egal wo ihr euch gerade befindet, was ihr gerade macht, nehmt euch einen Moment Zeit und schliesst die Augen lauscht Der Musik und spürt die Dankbarkeit, die durch euren Körper strömt.
Die Dankbarkeit das ihr heute Morgen aufgewacht seid die Dankbarkeit das ihr genau diesen Augenblick erleben dürft ihn fühlen und spüren könnt, denn ihr alle seid im hier und jetzt. Nehmt euch jeden Tag die Zeit kurz innezuhalten und sich bewusst zu machen wofür ihr an diesem Tag dankbar seid, denn die Dankbarkeit ist die Schwester der Liebe.
Erhöht eure Schwingung jetzt den der Aufstiegsprozess hat längst begonnen.
Mit Freundlichen Grüssen dien Universum

Mid Summer’s Night Dream by Wessel Couzijn, High Park: Lying in the grass by the path are two barely discernible shapes in cement, wrapped in strands of stainless steel. At first it is unclear what they are, until we perceive the fingers wrapped around the side and the chrome metal “parts” on each of the shapes. These are lovers, lying side by side, oblivious to the world, their shapely contours reduced to the barest essentials, their topographies outlined in steel bands like lines on a map.
We circle around them to learn more and discover what seems to be a piece of a wing emerging at the head. This is a fragment of a dream: have these lovers crashed to earth in a rocket ship? Where have they come from?
Wessel Couzijn was a Dutch sculptor who studied in Amsterdam, Paris and Italy. Stricken with polio as a child he spent years in hospitals. A Jewish anti-fascist, Couzijn fled Nazi violence to New York in 1940, but returned after the war to teach and work in the Netherlands. In 1960 the Dutch Pavilion at the Venice Biennial was almost wholly devoted to his work. In 1963 his bronze work “Corporate Entity” was placed outside the headquarters of Unilever in Rotterdam.
This is my cooking nook. Before, everything resided on the counter top. I had to scramble between the table and the stove to cook. I'm very happy with our new arrangement. Our kitchen feels very "habiller" as my husband says or dressed.
I love the easy access to the knives!
We plan on buying a large wooden counter top to place on top of this counter unit we have to make a larger work space.

Anonymous Somebody
Runnymede Station
Elicser Elliot's distinctive aerosol style is on display in groups of portraits of subway patrons throughout the concourse and street level. The images are taken from Elliot's sketchbook of real and imagined people: for example, the nurse is actually Elliot's agent's grandmother who lives near Runnymede Station, and took the same subway to work every day for 40 years. As the artist says, ““Anonymous Somebody” captures the snippets of our bustling Bloor West Village lives while standing still. The artworks aim to communicate the story of individual spirit as fresh and relevant to the metabolism of the neighbourhood. The images work as an anchor to a thought or memory for the person viewing it - to commemorate, celebrate, provoke, and heal”.
The characters are presented three-dimensionally, on panels that do not wholly align with the surrounding tiling, as if served up to us for our contemplation. We might recognize ourselves in them – the woman on the cell phone at the top of the escalator, the man sleeping on a streetcar after a hard shift, the woman sitting on a bench with a coffee and a magazine, the man waiting for a bus with his hands in his pockets. These are the glimpses we see as we transit through our day, and these we see again and again as we pass through the station. We will have our favourites, wonder at their stories, give them names, design a backstory for them.
Elicser Elliot is an alumnus of Sheridan College's animation program. Initially an aerosol artist, his work has been shown at the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Royal Ontario Museum and the McMichael Museum.

Excerpt from webapp.driftscape.com/map/891544ae-f6a8-11eb-8000-bc1c5a8...:
Ice World
The pristine lands of Arctic ice unfold onto a magical landscape. Deep inside of an ice cave, different shades of blue reflect melting walls. A frozen cave that rains northern waters. Warmth has carved out a hollow space, and as we follow this tunnel of frozen rain drops, we reach an opening at the foot of a giant glacier. Light and a vast snow-covered land opens before us.
Whispers of Nature's ancestors living in symbiosis with ancient ecosystems. The Inuit have lived here for millennia, with a deep understanding that humans are an integral part of all living creatures and ecosystems; their survival based upon a profound and intimate relationship held with the environment. Wood, bone, antlers and claws used as hooks to catch Arctic Char; hunting for fish has always been an important source of food.
Other creatures also inhabit these lands of ice and snow. The arctic is home to the largest bears in the world, polar bears, the arctic’s top predators. And in these harsh cold lands, a polar bear cub has two and a half years to learn from its mother how to survive. As our planet warms and ice caps melt, polar bear populations are increasingly at risk and are directly impacted by climate change. They now face a challenging road ahead of them to secure their survival.
Melting ice caps are not only affecting the survival of those above land, they are also causing major challenges to sea creatures underwater, such as the Narwhal, a unique tusked whale whose survival is endangered. For thousands of years, these creatures have been a staple of the Inuit community and have played a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems. Arctic oil and gas exploration is increasing as ice caps melt, and as oil and gas industries lobby for continued and increased exploration, and as humans continue to consume more oil and gas, offshore arctic drilling will increasingly disrupt this pristine land. Seismic testing and underwater explosions are known to disrupt communication and orientation for those undersea. It is our fossil fuel dependency that is changing lives and vast ecosystems in deep blue waters, even when we do not see them.
Up ahead transport ships and trade routes also form part of our modern-day landscape in the Arctic. With warming temperatures and disappearing ice caps, Arctic ship traffic is expected to increase, as industries eye new trade routes. In time, as more ships make their way through the Northwest Passage and the Northern Sea route, greenhouse and methane gas emissions will also continue to increase. These once untouched lands are rapidly transforming, but time and hope remain for us to make more sustainable choices.

Corinthian columns and capitals of the former bank building at King and Bay in Toronto. Built in 1912 by architect Carrere and Hastings of New York and Eustace Bird of Toronto. The building was demolished in 1966.
Excerpt from webapp.driftscape.com/map/912c610e-fcd4-11eb-8000-bc1c5a8...:
The white marble marvel is composed of a stepped stage backed by an arrangement of grand Corinthian columns, archways and ornate panels.
The Greek Theatre is made out of salvaged pieces of the former Bank of Toronto building on the Southwest corner of King and Bay streets, which stood where Mies Van Der Rohe’s TD Centre now stands. Constructed in 1913 and demolished in 1965 the neoclassical building was designed by the New York City architectural firm Carrere and Hastings, who designed the New York Public Library, and Toronto based Eustace G. Bird. Inspired by the historical Paris Stock Market—Palais Brongniart— the Bank of Toronto was a grand building; the plinth/base of the colonnade alone was taller than the people walking past it.
But this isn’t just a reconstruction - it is a complete reimagination! The elements were rearranged, shortened and adapted into a new structure designed by renowned Canadian architect Ron Thom in the 1980s. Unlike other artifacts at the park, this theatre is not just a folly, it is an actual working stage with productions throughout the year. And it’s the perfect place to get your wedding photos or that perfect Guild Park selfie!

The Windows of Time Mural
1971 Weston Road (on the side of the building)
The Windows of Time is a vibrant mural done by Brazilian born artist Christiano de Arte. The artist uses acrylic airbrush and brush for smooth and seamless blending of colours to create panels or “windows” of specific time periods of what life was like in Weston Village from the late 1800’s to present day.
The mural design consists of four segments that are separated by the use of an illustration of a wooden frame. The segments come together to make one fluid image. Each segment represents a time period which can be identified by the fashion and other time markers such as the “penny farthing” or “high wheeler bicycle” and fashions of the 1800’s, 1940’s, 1960’s and present day. It is interesting to see how the artist not only uses the people in the foreground of the mural to identify the period and how it has evolved but also the use of the space in the background.
I particularly love this mural because it captures when Weston became the diverse, multicultural community it is today while celebrating its history.
Hetty Engine House, Great Western Colliery, Hopkinstown
Dengys map y degwm am 1842 nad oedd dim tai annedd yn y man y datblygodd Trehopyn. Nid oedd ond tir fferm, a oedd yn nwylo Evan Hopkin. Erbyn diwedd y degawd, fodd bynnag, daeth tro ar fyd. Sefydlwyd Glofa Gyfeillion (Tŷ Mawr), a bu datblygiadau diwydiannol eraill. Gweddnewidiwyd y cwm. "Rhondda Road" oedd enw'r man yr oedd y tai yn 1851 ac yn 1861. Ceir yr enw Hopkin's Town yn 1871, fodd bynnag, a'r lle wedi cymryd ei enw, Trehopcyn yn Gymraeg, oddi wrth y gŵr a fu'n berchen y tir. Caewyd y pwll yn 1983.
▪️▪️▪️
E 1842 ne oa ket a diez el lec'h ma kreskas bourk Trehopcyn, nemet douaroù ur feurm ne oa. Ar feurm a oa dalc'het gant Evan Hopkin. A-benn dek vloaz avat e voe treuzfurmet an draoñienn gant Mengleuz Glaou Gyfeillion, ha gant greanterezh all. Ne gaver ket anv ar bourk a-raok 1871. Serret e voe ar poull-glaou e 1983.
▪️▪️▪️
In 1842 there were no homes on the land where Hopkinstown was to develop. There was only farmland which was owned by Evan Hopkin. By the end of that decade, however, the place had been transformed by the opening of the Great Western Colliery and by other industrial activity. The name "Hopkin's Town" only appears in 1871, and seems to refer to the former landowner. The mine was closed in 1983.

Williamson Park in Lancaster was built on the sandstone quarries from which much of the stone for the city was cut. In the 1860s it was landscaped by mill workers left unemployed by the "Cotton Famine" of the US Civil War.
The park has many outcrops of "Pendle Grit" sandstone overgrown with ferns and ivy and covered with lichen. I was surprised to see a band of softer rock, shale I think, between the two thick beds of sandstone, something I had not noticed before. See webapps.bgs.ac.uk/Memoirs/docs/B01527.html

This is the outlet of Shadow Creek from Ediza Lake, in California's Ansel Adams Wilderness. Taken in the late afternoon while balancing precariously on some rocks.
When it comes to backcountry hiking and camping, I’m not experienced enough to offer much in the way of helpful advice. But lately I’ve been venturing beyond the cozy world of car camping for some short (one or two day) solo hikes into the backcountry, and in the process I’ve learned a few things about the type of gear that works well for me on those kinds of trips. So I thought I’d share my packing list. Maybe it will be helpful to people in similar situations, and maybe those of you with more experience will suggest better ideas.
A couple of notes on this list… First, it’s not for trips involving extreme cold. It assumes mild or warm days and somewhat cold nights. Second, photography is a priority for me, which makes it even more challenging to pack light. I can’t take all the camera equipment I’d like without breaking my back. But even what I consider to be the bare minimum – a camera body (SLR), one or two good lenses, and a tripod – is pretty heavy. So that makes it especially important to keep the rest of my gear as light as possible.
I’ll divide the list into the three fundamentals (Food, Clothing, and Shelter), then add a fourth category for everything else.
FOOD & DRINK
Stove and Fuel. Let me start by admitting that I hate cooking. It’s almost impossible for me to spend any time preparing food. Because of this I have issued a formal decree: any cooking involving more than three steps is officially prohibited. That said, I am willing to boil water. And I’m OK pouring that boiling water into something. That’s only two steps, so no problem. Imagine my joy, therefore, when I discovered the Jetboil Personal Cooking System (15 oz stove, 7oz fuel canister). I love it. Light, small, and very easy to use. Boils water in just a couple minutes.
Coffee and Cup. Continuing the theme of admissions, here’s another: I’m addicted to caffeine. Really, truly addicted… If I don’t have caffeine soon after waking up I’m rewarded with a dull, throbbing headache at the base of my skull. What I’m trying to say is that I need to bring coffee with me on camping trips. I prefer to get my caffeine in the form of Coca-Cola, but a 12-pack would kind of ruin the whole ‘travel light’ thing. So to get my fix I bring a small package of instant coffee (2 oz) and a little metal cup (2 oz).
Dehydrated Meals. Does it count as a third admission if I confess that I have the palate of a 12-year-old? In other words, my taste in food is just not very sophisticated. I haven’t developed an appreciation for fine cuisine, and I still like the taste of basic foods (burgers, pizza, etc.). Without a second thought, I would choose In-and-Out over a fancy restaurant. So it shouldn’t be too surprising that I actually enjoy dehydrated meals. I enjoy them even more when I’m starving after hiking uphill all day. So far my favorite dehydrated dinner is Mountain House Chicken & Noodles (5 oz) and my favorite breakfast is Mountain House Scrambled Eggs with Ham (2 oz). They’re the perfect fit for my three-step decree: boil water (step 1), pour water into the food package (step 2), then just let it sit for a while (step 3). Done and done!
Energy Bars. I’m not a big fan of Power Bars or Clif Bars. They just don’t taste good to me. So I usually pack a few Quaker Chewy Granola Bars (1 oz each).
Water Bottle(s) . I carry a couple of plastic water bottles – one Nalgene 32oz Narrow Mouth and one Nalgene 16 oz Narrow Mouth. Full, they weigh about 3 pounds.
Water Purification Tablets. I know, I know… Water purification tablets don’t kill cryptosporidium, so I should really use a water filter. But water filters take up more space and they’re kind of a hassle. So far I’ve been fine using Potable Aqua Iodine Tablets (2 oz) as a fallback when I’m not able to boil water. At some point I’ll move to a water filter, but not yet.
Bear Canister. Most of the camping I do is in bear country, so the law says I need to bring something to keep the bears out of my food. I have the BearVault BV450 (2 lbs), which is perfect for short trips with one or two people.
Spoon. There will always be a soft spot in my heart for the spork, of course, but the only utensil I bring with me is the REI Chefware Soup Spoon (1 oz).
CLOTHING
Shirts. For quick trips I’ll usually just take one short-sleeved T-shirt and one long-sleeved T-shirt. Everyone seems to make a big point of how critical it is to avoid cotton: cotton is slow to dry, it doesn’t insulate well when wet, it doesn’t wick moisture away from your skin, it stinks up easily... Fine, fair enough. But honestly? For me cotton is just more comfortable. If I’m camping in mild conditions I’ll live on the edge and wear a regular cotton T-shirt. Whenever cotton doesn’t seem like a good idea, I’ll go with the short-sleeve North Face Vaporwick Ruckus (4 oz) or the Patagonia Capilene 2 (4 oz). As far as long-sleeved T-shirts, I like the REI Midweight MTS Zip T-Neck (5 oz) because the zip-up part can protect my neck from mosquitoes.
Jacket. If I’ll be camping in a place that gets somewhat cold at night, I usually bring along a fleece jacket, either the REI Muir Woods (1.4 lbs) or the North Face Windwall 1 (15 oz). And if rain is a possibility, I bring a waterproof jacket too, usually the North Face Venture (13 oz).
Pants. I love the idea of convertible pants. I just don’t like the actual pants. They bug me. They look goofy and the zippers are annoying. But they’re perfect for camping. On a one-night trip, a single pair of convertible pants is pretty much all you need. Um, in addition to everything else on this list, that is. For a few years now I’ve had the REI Sahara Convertible Pants (7 oz) and they’ve held up well.
Shorts. For trips longer than one night, I usually bring along a pair of regular shorts in addition to convertible pants. Nylon shorts are so light they don’t add much weight. Right now I’m using the Columbia Sportswear Silver Ridge II Cargo Shorts (4 oz, no longer on the Columbia Web site), which have an extra zippered pocket I like and are long enough to hit my knees (must at all cost avoid the short shorts).
Hiking Boots. It’s worth investing some time to find boots that work well for you and are appropriate for the conditions you’ll experience on your trip. There seem to be a bunch of great light hiking boots out there, and I think the only way to find the pair that fits you best is to go out and try on a bunch of them. For the past few months I’ve been wearing the Keen Voyageur (15 oz) and I like them a lot for warm weather hikes in mostly dry conditions. They’re not waterproof, but they’re light and breathable.
Socks. Gotta have at least two or three pairs of socks (5 oz). Socks made of CoolMax have been working pretty well for me so far. Although I’ve also tried Icebreaker Merino Hiker socks and like them too. I’m not so much into the idea of using sock liners in addition to socks. Seems like a hassle.
Underwear. Here’s another instance where I typically go with normal cotton instead of something synthetic. I know most people say that’s a bad idea, but so far I’ve been fine with cotton boxers. I do have a couple pairs of synthetic REI Midweight MTS Boxers (3 oz) and they’re actually pretty comfortable too.
Sun Hat. I think those floppy sun hats look goofy, so I used to just hike in a baseball cap. As I’ve gotten older, though, I care less about how my clothes look and more about not getting sunburned. So now I’ve become that which I mocked: the goofy guy in a floppy sun hat. I have some version of the Columbia Booney (4 oz) that they don’t make anymore. But that hat gets pretty hot, so I’ve been trying to find one I like that’s lighter and better ventilated.
Ski Cap. Not really mandatory, especially if the temperature will never drop very low. But a ski cap can be really nice during cold nights and mornings, and it weighs almost nothing. I don’t even know the brand of my ski cap… It’s black and weighs about 2 oz. Is that specific enough?
(The clothing list above seems like a pretty good balance of weight and flexibility… You’re only carrying about five pounds of clothes, but you can handle a wide range of temperatures. When it’s hot, you’re in shorts and a short-sleeved T-shirt. When it’s cold, you’re bundled up in pants, a short-sleeved T-shirt under a long-sleeved T-shirt, a fleece jacket, a rain jacket, and a ski cap – which can keep you comfortable even in some pretty hostile weather.)
SHELTER
Tent. We’ve come a long way from Hawkeye’s green M*A*S*H tent. Now a waterproof two-person tent weighs less than five pounds and fits in a bag the size of a loaf of bread. One-person tents are even lighter, but I like having extra room, and not all hikes are solo (my understanding is that cute single women who enjoy camping do exist, they’re just rare). The tent I use is the two-person REI Quarter Dome T2 (4.1 lbs), along with REI Quarter Dome T2 Footprint (13 oz). The Quarter Dome is a good size for me, but it would be too small for someone taller than six feet.
Sleeping Bag. Over the course of my adult life I’ve owned three sleeping bags. Three different brands, two filled with down and one synthetic. And all three have been just fine – the only change I’ve really noticed over time is that they’ve become lighter while still providing the same level of warmth, which is great. Right now I’m using the REI Halo +25 (2 lbs). It's light and compresses well. Ho-hum. Kind of boring. I guess I miss the sleeping bags of my Cub Scout days, with the old-school red flannel lining.
Sleeping Pad. I used to have a regular Therm-a-Rest pad, but I recently switched to the REI Lite-Core 1.5 Self-Inflating Pad (1.7 lbs) and I have to say that it’s noticeably more comfortable. And it’s easier to pack because it folds in half.
Pillow Stuff Sack. Does the fact that I really like having a nice pillow when I’m camping make me a baby? Don’t answer that. With car camping, it’s no problem – I just bring a real pillow. But for backcountry camping even a compressible pillow, like the small Therm-a-Rest Compressible Pillow (7 oz), takes up quite a bit of space. So for now I’m using the REI Medium Pillow Stuff Sack (5 oz). It’s basically just a normal stuff sack for your sleeping bag, but the inside is lined with felt, so at night you just reverse it, fill it with random clothes, and use it as your pillow. Not nearly as comfortable as a real pillow, but not terrible.
(Yep, a clean sweep of REI gear here in the ‘Shelter’ category. There’s a good REI store near where I live in San Francisco, and they happened to have their big twice-a-year sale soon after I decided to upgrade to lightweight gear.)
OTHER STUFF
Backpack. Choosing a backpack is one of your most important decisions. I think there are really four key considerations – you want a pack that fits you well, weighs very little, holds your gear without much room to spare, and doesn’t fall apart over time. I have the REI Flash 65 Pack (3.1 lbs). It’s too soon to judge durability, but it fits me nicely, it’s light, and it has enough room for everything on this list.
Camera Body. On my list of essential gear for a camping trip, a good camera comes right after food, clothing and shelter. Some people find it difficult to enjoy an experience if they’re trying to photograph it, but for me it’s the opposite – I have a tough time enjoying a scenic location if I can’t try to capture it on camera. When I’m camping I carry the Canon 5D Mark II (1.8 lbs), a full-frame SLR that is outstanding for landscapes and even takes HD video.
Camera Lens. Choosing a camera body is the easy part. The tough part is deciding which lens (or lenses) to bring. I have to be ready to zoom in on wildlife, so I’d like to take the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM (3.1 lbs). And I need a wide angle lens for landscapes, so I’d also like to take the Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM (1.1 lbs). But that leaves a midrange gap that should be filled by the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM (2.1 lbs). Add that up and you have over six pounds in lenses alone. Thanks to this dilemma, I recently I broke down and bought the Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM (3.7 lbs) so that I can get by with only one lens while hiking or traveling. The Canon 28-300mm is an extremely heavy lens, but it’s still lighter than the three lenses it replaces, and it eliminates the need to switch lenses in the field. Still, I have to admit that for some landscape shots I really need that Canon 17-40mm, so my lens strategy is really a work in progress.
Tripod. Up until a few years ago I thought tripods were pretty simple. You just buy one of those $40 tripods at Best Buy or Wolf Camera and you’re good to go. So I started there and had to learn the hard way. My long exposure shots were turning out blurry, so I bought a more expensive tripod that provided better stabilization. Then I started getting frustrated with the whole pan/tilt system (‘normal’ tripods were designed for video cameras), and I realized what I really needed was a ballhead that allows a full range of motion with a single tightening control. I eventually learned that a good support system for your camera has four parts – the tripod, a ballhead, a release clamp for the ballhead, and a plate for whatever camera body or lens you’re using. When hiking or traveling, I use the Gitzo GT-1541T tripod (2.1 lbs and only 16” when folded down) with a Really Right Stuff BH-25 LR ballhead (8 oz). The BH-25 isn’t really heavy-duty enough for the Canon 28-300mm, but it can handle the weight on short trips.
Other Photography Equipment. I’m starting to experiment more with filters, which are pretty light and don’t take up much space, so I take a Lee Filter Holder, 2 Lee Graduated ND Filters (soft, .9 and .6), and a Hoya 77mm Neutral Density ND-400 X, 9 Stop Multi-Coated Glass Filter. I also take two Transcend 32GB Compact Flash cards, a Canon shutter release cable for long exposures, and a Nikon Lens Pen Cleaning System. All of that weighs about 1.5 pounds.
Multi-tool. My favorite is the Leatherman Juice Cs4 (6 oz). All the tools in that thing are just plain cool... But it’s relatively heavy, and – when I really think about it – on backcountry trips I hardly ever use anything except the knife. So lately I’ve just been taking a L’il Guppie (2 oz). That’s right, a multi-tool that hardly weighs anything and has managed to incorporate “L’il” into its name. How can you resist? It has a knife, a tiny wrench, a screwdriver, a bottle cap opener, and can be used as a carabiner. Sold!
Bug Repellent. I don’t like having to use bug repellent, but when you need it, you really need it. 3M Ultrathon (2 oz) seems to work pretty well. Earlier this year I made the mistake of camping in King’s Canyon National Park without bug repellent, and afterwards there were so many bites covering my back that they merged into one solid Pangaea super-bite.
Sunscreen. Another annoying but must-have item. You don’t need my voice added to the chorus of admonitions to use sunscreen. For short trips I take a mini-tube of Banana Boat Sport SPF 30 (1 oz).
Bandana. The bandana may win the award for highest usefulness-to-weight ratio. It can’t weigh more than an ounce, and yet it has all kinds of potential uses – wiping sweat off your face, wiping your hands after you eat, blocking light from your eyes when you try to sleep in the morning, applying pressure to a cut, hiding your identity during bank heists… You name it.
Book. Maybe not a must-have for everyone, but I like having something to read, especially if I’m struggling to fall asleep at night (which almost always happens when I camp). I just try to make sure it’s a thin book (<5 oz) – I’m not lugging War and Peace around.
Map. I take back what I said about the bandana… Maps win the award for highest usefulness-to-weight ratio. A good map of the area you’ll be exploring is mandatory.
Toiletries. A toothbrush, a tiny tube of toothpaste, lip balm, a couple Band-Aids, some toilet paper, and a few Advil. That’s about it. In all, maybe three ounces worth of stuff. For one night camping trips I don’t even take a toothbrush. But before you impugn my personal hygiene, that doesn’t mean I go more than a day without brushing – I take care of it right before the hike and then again when I’m back in civilization the next day. That’s not so bad, right? Right?
Headlamp. I used to make fun of a friend for using a headlamp. If you're about to go spelunking, by all means knock yourself out. But for camping? Then I tried one on a recent trip and I’m forced to admit it was pretty convenient... The Princeton Tec Fuel Headlamp (3 oz) has three settings, and the lowest is perfect for reading in the tent at night without having to hold a flashlight or set up some kind of lantern.
Watch. If it wasn’t for photography, I probably wouldn’t care so much about the time while I’m hiking, and I certainly wouldn’t be setting an alarm at night. But as it is I need something to wake me up for sunrise shots. I’ve had the Timex Expedition (2 oz) for years now – no complaints.
Stuff Sacks and Plastic Bags. A few random bags (1 oz) always help keep things organized, and I like using plastic Zip-lock bags to waterproof my camera gear.
Let me wrap up by pointing out some of the things I’ve considered bringing but usually don’t…
STUFF I USUALLY DON’T BRING
Camp Towel. As Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy taught us, a towel is great to have when you’re traveling. Not only can it dry things, it can be a shade from the sun, a blanket, a pillow, a sack… So why don’t I bring one with me? Maybe I just haven’t found the right towel. The two camp towels I’ve tried were more like shammies, but minus the ability to absorb water. And even if they were absorbent, wouldn’t they get pretty nasty after a day or two? If you just want something to wipe off your hands or face, it seems like a bandana has you covered. I guess I don’t see what a towel brings to the party above and beyond the stuff I usually take with me. Unless, of course, we’re talking about Towelie, in which case it’s a different story.
Water Filter. Yes, I know, not bringing a water filter is a mistake. Boiling water is all well and good for cooking dinner and making coffee, but you really need an effective way to purify drinking water. And, as I discussed above, the Potable Aqua tablets don’t kill cryptosporidium, so it’s not a good idea to rely on them. At some point I’ll break down and buy a filter, although I really don’t want to have to drag another thing along with me. So far the Katadyn Hiker Water Filter (11 oz) looks like the one I’ll choose, but I’d love to hear from someone who has good advice on this.
Camp Pillow. As I mentioned above, I’ve been leaving my camp pillow behind and just using a stuff sack pillow, which isn’t ideal in terms of comfort but doesn’t take up any space or add weight. I haven’t tried an inflatable camp pillow, but maybe I will at some point.
GPS. So far my hikes have been on trails that are so well marked I’d have to make a major effort to get lost. I just haven’t needed to bring a GPS device with me. But on trips to more remote places I may add this to the list.
Music Player. Tough call. One the one hand, I don’t want to wear headphones when I’m hiking or when I’m in my tent. I want to be able to hear things. On the other hand, let’s say I’m taking a break next to a creek, maybe reading a book. Might be nice to have some music. And my iPod Shuffle (1 oz) is so tiny, there’s very little downside to bringing it along.
Cell Phone. Just doesn’t seem right, even if there’s coverage. I was a late cell phone adopter because I’m not a big fan of being reachable all the time, so I appreciate a cell phone break every now and then. My Blackberry stays in the car while I’m hiking. (Although as soon as I’m back from a hike I immediately grab it for my e-mail fix, of course.)
Sleeping Bag Liner. I have an REI MTS Bag Liner (11 oz), which I used instead of a sleeping bag while camping in the jungle in Indonesia one night. It makes a good warm-weather substitute for a sleeping bag, and it’s great for travel that involves staying at sketchy hostels, but only in really, really cold weather would you want to take one with you in addition to a sleeping bag.
Sandals. I love my Keen Newport H2s (11 oz), and I’m always tempted to bring them. After a long day of hiking it feels great to change into sandals, and the Keens are perfect for crossing streams. But I get by fine without them so I can’t justify the extra weight.
Matches. From a survival perspective, a must-have. But I don’t really start fires very often when I’m camping in the backcountry. So I only rarely bring matches with me.
Water Reservoir. I’ve never jumped on board the CamelBak bandwagon. Are we really at a point as a society where we simply can’t bear the idea of reaching into our pack for a water bottle? Do I really want a thin plastic bladder full of water packed next to my camera gear? Are you annoyed by the fact that I’m asking myself questions to make my point?
Sunglasses. This is a photography issue. I feel like I see potential shots better when I’m not wearing sunglasses. The 99.99% of the population that doesn’t suffer from the same delusion should probably bring sunglasses on their trip.
Trekking Poles. Nope, I’m not down with that whole use-ski-poles-as-you-walk business. Just seems like more work to lug those things around. If I need extra balance for something specific (like wading through a creek), I can find a wooden stick or use my tripod.
First Aid Kit. Uh, I’d better be very careful here. Whatever important first aid item I say I don’t need, I’ll end up desperately needing it on my next trip. They might as well write the newspaper article now, quoting this paragraph as proof of my hubris and poor planning right after explaining how an emergency team had to airlift me out of some canyon.
Moleskin. On short hiking trips, I’ve been fine using some of those flexible Band-Aids to deal with any potential blisters.
OK, that’s where I’m at so far. The total weight of all the gear I take is about 35 pounds for a one or two night backpacking trip. Not terrible, considering the hit I take from the heavy camera equipment, but still not as light as I’d like. I’ll keep working on it, and I hope those of you with better ideas will help me tighten up this list.

From Here to Now
Bayview Station
Throughout Bayview station you’ll find twenty-four pieces. Start exploring and look for black swirls on the floors and walls. At first you might not recognize what they are, but keep moving, when you view these works from the right perspective you’ll have that A-Ha moment! You’ll often see a block of colour near the black illustration, shift your perspective until it starts to look like a square to view the piece from the right angle. Keep your eye out for a needle and spool, a tea cup, a cut apple, slices of lemon, a salt shaker. There are more treasures in store up the stairs.
The visual distortion, known as anamorphosis, shifts with the viewer’s position. The image seems distorted when seen from a frontal position but when viewed from one side or from an angle it resumes normal proportions. For a real treat view the images through the lens of your smartphone: they’ll appear as if in augmented reality – a ladder leaning against the wall, a stepladder, a pocket watch floating in the air, a dog waiting at the top of the stairs for its owner to come home.
The work heightens our awareness about movement and travel through these pedestrian spaces and infuses our experience with a sense of play. The pieces are made from waterjet-cut glazed ceramic tiles laid in the walls and floors, and based on free-hand black line drawings. The artist, Panya Clark Espinal, is a Toronto-based multi-media installation artist who has produced many public art commissions. Her pixelated interpretation of the famous Jack Pine painting by Tom Thomson is installed at Barberry Place, just a block from this station.

Anonymous Somebody
Runnymede Station
Elicser Elliot's distinctive aerosol style is on display in groups of portraits of subway patrons throughout the concourse and street level. The images are taken from Elliot's sketchbook of real and imagined people: for example, the nurse is actually Elliot's agent's grandmother who lives near Runnymede Station, and took the same subway to work every day for 40 years. As the artist says, ““Anonymous Somebody” captures the snippets of our bustling Bloor West Village lives while standing still. The artworks aim to communicate the story of individual spirit as fresh and relevant to the metabolism of the neighbourhood. The images work as an anchor to a thought or memory for the person viewing it - to commemorate, celebrate, provoke, and heal”.
The characters are presented three-dimensionally, on panels that do not wholly align with the surrounding tiling, as if served up to us for our contemplation. We might recognize ourselves in them – the woman on the cell phone at the top of the escalator, the man sleeping on a streetcar after a hard shift, the woman sitting on a bench with a coffee and a magazine, the man waiting for a bus with his hands in his pockets. These are the glimpses we see as we transit through our day, and these we see again and again as we pass through the station. We will have our favourites, wonder at their stories, give them names, design a backstory for them.
Elicser Elliot is an alumnus of Sheridan College's animation program. Initially an aerosol artist, his work has been shown at the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Royal Ontario Museum and the McMichael Museum.

I am in the process of rolling out all of my new logo stuff with my packaging. I won't officially roll it out to clients until after the New Year, but I thought I would do a test run with a gift certificate I am giving to Connor's teacher for Christmas.
Here are the details. :)
Logo was done by Amanda E.
5x7 Boxes - Paper Source
Tissue Paper - Nashville Wraps
Larger Square Labels - Mobile Graphics (local company here in Victor, but they did an AMAZING job on the labels. They come in 12x16 inch sheets and depending on how many you order are like $5.00 a sheet! They are easy to work with, so check out their site!
Brown Bags - Nashville Wraps
5x7 envelopes from Paper Source
M&M's in logo colors (each client gets a bag of these, with print orders there is a "Thank You" card attached. - local Wegman's.
Business Cards were printed at Miller's with rounded corners and UV coating. I need to make that brown on the card the same dark brown as the rest of my packaging...I don't like them this way at all.
The gift certificate goes in the envelope and that goes in the box. The box goes in the bag. :) Lots of unwrapping that way!
Ainssssssss
Parece mentira, pero aquí estamos!
Son ya 3 años juntos, no entiendo como me has soportado tanto...
Eres el mejor compañero, el mejor amigo... siempre ahí apoyándome y dándome tu confianza...

Morning Glory
Spadina Station
Louis de Niverville was a celebrated collage artist who got his start with a mural at the Expo Theatre in Montreal for Expo 67. At the age of six, he was hospitalized for five years with spinal tuberculosis and separated from his twelve siblings for fear of infection. Largely self-taught, he attributed much of the fantasy nature of his work to this lonely period when he had to entertain himself for hours at a time. He says, "When I was a child my pair of scissors was my most important toy; I liked to cut characters out of comic books. These little people took on a life of their own and became my best friends and even my family. I kept them in an envelope and when I took them out they gave wings to my imagination."
This large porcelain enamel collage, called Morning Glory, draws on his childhood dreams. We see a person lying in bed, seemingly protected by a lion, while, behind the child, a rabbit figure which appears to have been taken from Alice in Wonderland, stands watch. There are themes of escapism here. A girl in a nightdress floats away, lifted by a kite, while, on the other side, a Mary Poppins-type figure floats with an umbrella. A woman climbs the stairs with a giant cup of tea, and on the far left a person dives through a window. There are several women present, leaping over fences, crossing fields, dancing at the top of a staircase. Each of the people represented seems to be a character in a story of which we know only fragments.
Louis de Niverville’s work depicts scenes of surrealism and fantasy. His work appears at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children and Pearson Airport, and in art galleries such as the Art Gallery of Ontario, the National Gallery, Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Agnes Etherington Art Centre in Kingston.

Excerpt from webapp.driftscape.com/map/cf71ae2e-7510-11ec-8000-bc1c5a8...:
Untitled by Khaula Mazhar: Since the neighbourhood has a large population of immigrants, South Asians in particular, I used an image of a young South Asian woman in her traditional attire appreciating nature. Adjusting to her new world, like so many immigrant women she is naturally resilient and looks for something familiar to give her hope and strength. Nature is something that we love and appreciate in any part of the world, and it makes an appearance in so many classic western and eastern paintings, our love of nature is something that connects us all, it can bring us together and strengthen community. The style is a contemporary twist on Mughal art inspired by the work of Hajra Mansoor, who is the pride of the South Asian community.
I am working on an ongoing series that appreciates South Asian women. Growing up in Canada at a time when diversity was not as appreciated it was very hard to be a visibly brown girl. My culture was misrepresented and misunderstood and rather than feeling any sense of pride for my rich history and culture I felt awkward and basically like I would just like to disappear into the surroundings and not stand out. Over time I started to feel the need to make a space for myself, my ethnicity and be able to share my stories myself rather than have a non-brown person tell their version of it. I realized how important it was for young girls to see positive images that they could relate to and realize that their beauty was unique and that standards set by non-coloured people were not something they had to follow or be intimidated by. They should celebrate and share their own history, and culture and take pride in their ethnicity.

I'm happy to report that Petey is still enjoying the big pillow I got him for napping on the sofa. And that led to poodlenose mentioning some dog blankets they got at LLBean, which led me to order a bed with a quasi-real mattress from LLBean, which Pete loves. So thanks to poodlenose for the suggestion. Pete can rest comfortably in pretty much any room of the house now :-)

I did not purchase the pattern, only guesstimated it
one of our bookshelves, it's got plenty of stuff in it.
it's an Ikea Expedit that we bought for its large square shelves that work well to contain our oversized textbooks and graphic novels
our paperback and hardcover novels are in another bookcase

Ainssssssss
Parece mentira, pero aquí estamos!
Son ya 3 años juntos, no entiendo como me has soportado tanto...
Eres el mejor compañero, el mejor amigo... siempre ahí apoyándome y dándome tu confianza...
Respetas todo de mí... mis gustos, mis espacios, mis silencios, mis broncas...
¡A veces ni yo me soporto así que no entiendo como incluso en esos momentos, días... aún sigues ahí a mi lado!
Me siento afortunada y acepto todo tu cariño porque la verdad era lo que necesitaba, al mejor a mi lado que me hace mejor persona cada día...
GRACIAS MI NIÑO A POR 3 AÑOS MÁS...
