Transportation

















I took this photo of Parry Sound harbour last October. I realized
that it included four familiar methods of transportation....train..car
..boat..and plane. A very busy harbour indeed.

the appearance of a giant muffin.

Macauley Church Museum



















Rev.William Macauley provided the funds to
have this church built in 1825. It was known as
the Church of St. Mary Magdeline. Today it is
used as a museum containing items from the early years
of Picton. Extensive structural repairs are now underway
funded by both federal and provincial goverments.

This is the original home of Rev. William Macauley who
was one of the founders of Picton. The house was built
in 1830 and is now a popular tourist destination and is furnished
in the style of the period.

"Diane"















Several years ago my cat Diane stayed outside overnight
 in sub-zero weather. The Vet' had to clip off the tips of her ears.
Apparently,it is not that uncommon, and she doesn't
seem to mind. She still thinks she's beautiful.
