An Inukshuk on the Speed River at Gordon

An Inukshuk on the Speed River at Gordon (the Our Lady of Lourdes Church steeple in the background). Spring flow is reduced to a relative trickle as the river volume is controlled by the Guelph Lake Dam. Kids, young and old, have put up these stone creations on the exposed riverbed. Easter Sunday, April 4th.

iPhone Diaries #73: "First crocus for 2010"

On a walk to the park with Mary and the dogs, we spied this crocus, adamant that it be noticed! A visual treat competing with the audio offerings of the male cardinal and the robins. The downside was the obsessive/compulsive next-door  neighbour intruding on the peace and quiet with his lawnmower. Good Friday, April 2nd.
