A Cat With Good Taste in Wine

We recently brought home some leftover wine from an Ontario Wine Society event. While I was adding the wine to the OWS inventory list, our cat Sage decided to sit on top of the box. Taken by Sue with the Olympus camera.

Across the River to Motor City

We spent Monday night at the Caesars Windsor Casino. This was the view from our room overlooking the Detroit River and the impressive buildings on the waterfront. The photo colouring is due to the tinting on the hotel windows.

Rest in Peace, Presley

I recently posted a few photos of my great niece, Bethany, with my Cousin's St. Bernard, Presley. It showed Bethany & Presley enjoying the sunshine. Unfortuntely, Presley passed away on Friday. It must have been fate that Tony brought Presley to Sue's birthday party to spend a few hours with the family. He will be missed.
