OTTAWA — Constance Bay has not designated its downtown a red-light district, despite what a racy new sign might have you believe. A roadside sign posted outside the village a couple of weeks ago by the City of Ottawa directs travelers to Constance Bay's downtown with some symbols indicating various amenities. One square was left blank. Bad move, apparently. Sometime last weekend, a vandal filled in the blank spot with a pair of stick figures who appear to be particularly engaged. But don't let the saucy illustration fool you, said West Carleton-March Councillor Eli El-Chantiry.
It's business as usual in Constance Bay, located about 48 kilometres northwest of Ottawa. He says the city will have to have the sign sandblasted back to its virgin state.

Johnny and Sue Yackel (soprano) demonstrate how one is supposed to observe this crossing sign. We ditched the castle tour in Conway, Wales to visit the Butterfly House across town. It was worth it.
In July of 1998 Johnny and I toured with the Morris Beachy Singers. For two weeks 65 singers and spouses motored our way from Manchester, through North Wales, crisscrossed Ireland, and back across South Wales, concluding in London. It was a glorious experience singing in St. David’s Cathedral and other churches. We want to go back and see more.
Ornate sign hanger seen on a shop in Ironbridge.
Ironbridge is a village on the River Severn, at the heart of the Ironbridge Gorge, in Shropshire, England. Ironbridge developed beside, and takes its name from, the famous Iron Bridge, a 30-metre (100 ft) cast iron bridge that was built across the river in 1779. The Iron Bridge is a bridge that crosses the River Severn in Shropshire, England. Opened in 1781, it was the first arch bridge in the world to be made of cast iron, and was greatly celebrated after construction owing to its use of the new material.
In 1934 it was designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument and closed to vehicular traffic. Tolls for pedestrians were collected until 1950, when ownership of the bridge was transferred to Shropshire County Council. It now belongs to Telford and Wrekin Borough Council. The bridge, the adjacent settlement of Ironbridge and the Ironbridge Gorge form the UNESCO Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site. The bridge is a Grade I listed building, and a waypoint on the South Telford Heritage Trail.

ich weiß bloß nicht, was das schild bedeuten soll. von dort ist nämlich weder die brücke, noch der dom richtig gut zu sehen, auch nicht bei mondschein.

Today, I found a sign that spring is on the way! Crocuses...uh, Croci...pushing up amidst the snow. For the next few days, I'll post other signs of the promise of spring.
My friend, Pat, encouraged me to do a more precise ID. These are actually winter aconite (Eranthis). Thanks for clarifying the ID, Pat.
The cost of living here in Canton is usually pretty reasonable. I guess something has to balance it out.
