OK, I have to wait until I get a few more pictures that are appropriate for the few remaining stitches in the Found Poetry of Knitting Stitches, so I’ll just coast a bit here.<\/p>\n

We plan on doing some kayaking on the Jordan river where it empties into Lake Ontario, so I am hoping to get a picture of “that boat.”  If you’ve ever taken the QEW to Niagara you’ll know the one I mean.  It looks like a pirate ship beached near the highway beside a restaurant. I am also hoping that there’ll be some surf to take pictures of waves.  I’m not sure how I’m going to get a picture of Odin’s Eagles – maybe a hawk will do – or alternatively a very large blackbird.<\/p>\n

I’ll have to see how my husband holds up.  He’s not very patient when it comes to my lining up a shot and this is photography not Pool \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

In the meantime, although we won’t be going down for the Pride parade – just too many people and I’m not a great fan of crowds, we will be supporting them.  Here is a picture of a shop that always has a lovely display for Pride week.<\/p>\n

It’s a shop on Mt Pleasant that has beautiful curios – D Davis Objets d’Art.<\/p>\n

I also plan to do a little knitting.  I’m working on the simplest of scarves,  in the simplest of stitches and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve ripped it back.  Sometimes complex is better – it keeps you focussed.<\/p>\n

Have a dazzling day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
