December 6 is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada. I believe that these ribbons appeared around campus to comemorate that day and the "sad anniversary of the death of fourteen young women who were tragically killed on December 6, 1989 at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal because of their gender."
More fun along the Galloping Goose trail in Victoria, B.C.
Any city with water and mountains is okay by me, whether it's sunset or not. The rest is a bonus.
I went on a hike up Mount Doug(las) with my step-sister. My only complaint. My battery died after my first picture. At least I made it a good one.
These were not the kinds of things I was accustomed to seeing in November in Ontario.
The trail along the gorge in Victoria has some spots that are particularly picturesque, and some that are.... not.
Maybe it's more a question of what you consider picturesque. This should provide something for all tastes.
Detail of the detail of the Provincial Legislature in Victoria, BC.
Amazing mossy trees in Goldstream Provincial Park, just outside of Victoria, BC.
Looking across Victoria's inner-harbour from a great mosaic orca to the provincial parliament buildings. That Victoria is one pretty place.
The high and mighty Empress Hotel with it's expensive yet tiny rooms. At least it's not a rectangular box and the halls do look like the halls in the Shining. :)
Jamie continues his impression (even if the photos are reversed on the blog).
Jamie is failing miserably at staying dry but is succeeding wildly at his impression of Singing in the Rain.
I know, I know, it has been a long time since I added anything to this blog. Remember, it is a repository for the photos that I post on my Flickr site. My regularly updated stuff is on Standing in the Hall.
This is also a test of flickr's blogging tool. Ooooh, what fun. ;)
