Given the rain situation, I was fairly certain I wouldn't have enough time to put into today's photo. A few quick shots before class were necessary.
I had not previously heard of David Nail, but decided to go to this show on a whim. If given the chance, country fans or not, you should make the effort to see him. I was blown away by his performance. He had unique funk, country, jazz, bluesy sound... my non-country music fan friend and I left talking about how fabulous he was the whole ride home. I was pleasantly surprised to know that I knew 2 of his songs "Turning Home" and "Red Light." Seeing him was an experience and he has a fan for life.

Bergen has given a warm welcome to its visitors for more than 900 years. Bryggen has become a symbol of our cultural heritage and has gained a place on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
The old Hanseatic wharf is architecturally unique and is perhaps one of the most familiar image in all of Norway.
Ever since the intrepid King Olav Kyrre sailed into the harbour and founded the city in 1070, Bergen has attracted people from all quarters of the world. Some came and went, others decided to make Bergen their home. Bergensers travelled abroad and learned and so Bergen became a melting-pot of cultures and Norway's most international city.
Bergen grew up around its colourful harbour - it was the hub of commerce, seafaring and crafts-manship. We became the north's largest city, Norway's first capital city and the seat of royalty. So important was Bergen by the 13th century that the Hansas - the German medieval guild of merchants - opened one of their four European offices on the wharf called Bryggen.
Some of the Hansas chose to become Bergensers. And so have many others throughout the centuries. But Bryggen stays the same, its contour just as it was in the 11th century, untouched by shifting times. It has become a symbol of our cultural heritage and has gained a place on UNESCO's World Heritage List. Bergen has become a World Heritage City.
Given Herald editor George Shepherd's support for Scottish independence, it is perhaps surprising to find this picture from March, 1960, filed under 'vandalism'. But his outrage may have been because it was the entrance to Arbroath Abbey that had been defaced.

Lazy (the name was already given to her). Our only girl right now and yes, the boys love her. I think Demon has a crush. She wasn't living the life she deserved, as one can see. She came in the winter and lived with children. But, now she was too "big" so they didn't want her in the home anymore at all. She did play with other dogs and seems very interested in meeting the other dogs. She was so scared when I brought her to animal control, I had to carry her in the doorway. She seems to be more and more comfortable now. She is a strong girl who probably needs someone who is going to understand she might get unexpectedly frightened. This beautiful girl is under two years of age. She looks like she has a little shepherd and pittie mix.
So, we got down in the valley, we given some local hooch distilled from local heather or something, then had to take part in some friendly competition the point of which was lost on me....
You will be glad to know I was taking photos all the time, of my colleagues and of the landscape. On our way back, I fell behind as I was struggling with my chest infection, and I decided to lookm for an easier way back to the hotel, which involved getting lost, walking alongside the main road in the dark, then climbing a hill that was at least a 45 degree angle.
But i did get back. Then my friends followed that up by not telling me they were in the bar, so by the time lunch came round they were very merry indeed.
I soon caught up, but took an early night as I had to leave before dawn the next morning; they carried on drinking....
Given to us from a lovely friend in Hong Kong, it was hand painted by an 80 year old Chinese man. It has our names written on it with sweet flowers. I Love It!

They have given Isaac some of their beans. Two days ago Fabiolo took just about a bushel basket of beans home! That patch and variety of bean have been prolific and there are still a lot left!!!
Given our short flash of warm weather, the ferns have really begun to jump up out of the ground! Amazing to see them birthing! :)
Enjoyed a sunny afternoon with neighbours, who are also good friends. It's my birthday tomorrow. I was given a birthday cake which says 96. Either I am well preserved, or someone reverse the numbers...

North Choir Aisle.
This window is given in loving remembrance of the best of parents Henry & Elizabeth Figgis Hughes by their affectionate daughter Laura Ellen Hughes Liversidge.
Detail: Bishop and squirrel border.
Window by Thomas Curtis of Ward & Hughes, 1891.
Incorporating two fire-damaged 14th century panels, other medieval fragments and a much restored 14th century panel of St John the Baptist together with its 1891 replacement.
The firm of Ward & Hughes spans the history of Victorian stained glass from the Gothic revival to the Aesthetic Movement. Despite having worked in so many styles, their windows are easily recognisable since, unlike those of many artists, they are always signed “Ward & Hughes, London” with the date of manufacture. The partnership of Thomas Ward (1808-1870) and Henry Hughes (1822-1883) began in the early 1850s. Thomas Ward had been a stained glass designer for almost twenty years by this time, in partnership with JH Nixon. When Nixon retired Henry Hughes, one of his pupils and a talented designer, took his place. After Ward’s death in 1870 Hughes was free to run things as he wanted. There was clearly a change of direction in the 1870s away from the now stale Gothic style towards a style influenced by the Aesthetic Movement. Henry Hughes died in 1883 and the firm was taken over by a relative of his, Thomas Figgis Curtis (1845-1924). Soon after, the firm’s output was signed “TF Curtis, Ward & Hughes”. The firm remained operational until the late 1920s, but most of the company’s archives have been lost, so little is known about this remarkable and enduring firm.

..
Treasury Board President Anita Anand says that Government increases in Senior's benefits were too generous and these $ need cut back in future Liberal budgets ? Question,, how in the world do you cut back on a Seniors old age pension raise of nothing, or zero to Seniors aged 65 to 75 ?
.
CBC Apr 21 2024 - In a recent CBC interview, Liberal Treasury Board President Anita Anand has created inter generational friction when placing blame for the current housing crisis on her Governments overdoing of benefits given to Seniors and this unfair imbalance may have had an adverse affect on the Millennials and Gen X generations ? She also claims that the Seniors' generation had it better than this new generation ? Her Liberal Party plans to increase help for Millennials and Gen X apparently by cutting back on Seniors benefits ?
Due to restrictions, only 43% of all Seniors were able to receive the 10% OAS raise in old age pension ,, and so, 57% of Senior's received nothing ?
