From the Farm to the Fork with a short stop at the petting zoo at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. Last weekend we visited the fair to see if animals were happy and loved us.

The portraits in the post below are from the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame Gallery, (sponsored by SEMEX) in a room attended by two older gentlemen who were happy and loved us.

L.M. and I have both been participating in a long and sometimes heated (and sometimes hilarious) thread about art criticism over at Simpleposie. The arguments are a tad circular, as people who seem to fundamentally disagree forge the occasional spot of common ground, and then re-polarise. It seems like it might be winding up now, which is a bit of a relief as its time for me to do-as-I-say, not say-as-I-do, but it's been interesting and challenging.

Here is some more documentation of Thicket 1: The Voyage, by myself and Von Bark with kitties made by Jean McKay. The piece is on view at Harbourfront Centre until December 31st. The other shows on exhibit are really good, it's all worth a trip down to the lake!

ENDLESS PARADE OF EXCELLENCE RULES THE KNOWN UNIVERSE!

Because Rob Cruickshank posted a link for the Pinetree Line early warning network of radar bases (equipped with computer technology, if you please). And my hometown was the impeccably strategic location for Station #12.

It had to look like the Soviet Union to keep you safe from the Soviet Union

What of the slide show for the whole pinetree line? (you may well ask) ...it's exquisite.

Did you grow up close to RADAR?
