Which road to choose?


Sometimes in life we are faced with different choices, which will get us to different places. Today's photo made me think of that, as I saw the train tracks split into three lines, and made me wonder, where did each line lead to? In life, our choices often bring us on different paths, and as the train tracks we don't always know the destination or what will happen at the end. However, if you do get on a train, hopefully you have an idea where you will be getting off, unless you have an open ticket, then you can always come back and stop where you really want to.

Wah Shing Store or Washing Store

I had seen this sign a while ago, and it made me laugh. It's a neat play on words, and when I first read it, I thought oh maybe a laundry mat, or something to do with cleaning. However, it's a grocery/utility/kitchen equipment store in Chinatown (at least it seems like that from the outside, as I've never gone inside). There are other neat spaces in and around Chinatown, I hope to get some more as the year progresses.

Toys and travel

As I waiting for my flight back to Ottawa at the Montreal airport, I decided to take a photo of my travel toys. It is crazy when I think about the technology that I carry around with me and what it is capable of doing.


Since I liked taking the photos in the plane yesterday, I figured I could take a few more today.

In the air...

Shortly after taking off in YOW (Ottawa), this was the view from my window. It was a short and sweet flight to Montreal, and now waiting for my flight to Moncton. Always a pleasure going home, even though this trip is a short one.

One of my cameras

Tonight, as I was trying to figure out what I was going to take for my photo, I decided to take a photo of one of my cameras. This one is a special little camera that came to me as a gift a while ago, and it always reminds me of that person and how I like taking photos. I always get a kick at hitting the little button on the top and seeing the flash go off. I might be a toy, but it's fun and reminds me of how fun photography can be. As my 98th post of the year, here's the a photo of that camera.

Please change your signs! I don't want snow!



I was walking down Preston St today and noticed these signs above Preston Square. Who wants snow on April 3rd?? It's now Spring, please change your signs!! As you can see in the photos, there's no signs of winter or snow anymore, and these signs are kind of out of date! They should say, please bring the sunshine or the warmth!
