Living The Questions: Philly Day Two at the Zoo!
http://djembeslappin.blogspot.com/2008/07/philly-day-two-at-zoo.html
Wednesday, July 23, 2008. Philly Day Two at the Zoo! Day Two in Philadelphia there was nothing planned until the Welcome Party at 7pm. Lorne would be flying in around 4-ish and Robyn. Wanted to see the zoo. She had never seen American animals in real life, she said. Which ones, I asked? We got up early, then went to breakfast in the hotel. It turned out Michael, Paul and RuthAnn also wanted to come with us to the zoo, which was fine with us- the more, the merrier! Now we have matching sunscreens! Then it...

Living The Questions: April 2008
http://djembeslappin.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Was it too much to ask? When the organizer of the graduation ceremonies balked at providing CART, I told him point-blank, "Deaf people have children and pay school taxes too.". So my article went into the ALDA newsletter and I forgot about it until yesterday when my teacher brought it up to me. Which is so typical for late-deafened people. Why me? It wasn't until I met other strong late-deafened advocates who educated me about ADA rights that I began to think differently. Because...

http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/11/frostty-morning.html
Wednesday, November 3, 2010. We had the first heavy frost of the. Fall yesterday with temps of minus 5C, that's around 27F in American. While the car was defrosting I took a few photos in the back yard. Brrr - pretty but brrrr! Love that first photo. Are you mentally ready for winter - Im not! November 3, 2010 at 7:15 PM. We had that too! November 3, 2010 at 8:50 PM. Theyre all great shots and leave the viewer in no doubt as to how cold it must have been. Brrr. I love numbers 1 and 3 the best.

Thursday, August 12, 2010. Skywatch Friday. Punk Birds. These pileated woodpeckers were in our back yard today, pecking away on the wood on the hydro pole. I missed seeing them though, my man was the one who took these photos of them outlined against the sky. They are large birds, 18 inches long, and the noise they make hammering into the wood can be heard over a kilometre away. I hope they come back again. For more pictures of skies visit Skywatch Friday. Links to this post. Wednesday, August 11, 2010.

http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/10/menagerie.html
Saturday, October 16, 2010. I have a new friend M whom I met through this blog. It turns out that he lives on a farm nearby and on that farm he has a few pets: peacocks, emus, chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, goats, llamas, alpacas, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, a pig and a donkey. It's a happy place. Thats a right old collection to keep one busy. Looks like fun in a chaotic I-wouldnt-last-a-week kinda way! October 16, 2010 at 3:49 PM. Ooooh, what a nice collection of beasties! One slice at a time.

hereabouts: Salmon Run
http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/09/salmon-run.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. Chinook salmon runs aren't only found on the west coast as here in Ontario we have our own versions. Some years ago Lake Ontario started to be stocked with those Pacific coast natives to provide fishing fun and a predator for alewives. Alewives are a fish and not a Hogarthian pub landlady BTW, oh and they may now be endangered because of too many hungry Chinook. Looking upstream to Port Hope. And downstream with the uranium refinery in the distance. There were several dead f...
