It is the most wonderful national park almost 4 hours north- north east of Toronto.

Algonquin Provincial Park's 7630 square kilometres of forests, lakes, and rivers have assumed an almost incalculable importance as a living link with a ...

BTW, that is a photograph, not a painting. :-D

Ping SS, because you like good pictures.

We went down to Lake Wales, Florida once years ago and stayed in that area a couple of days in a funny little hotel that a lady and her children had built by themselves out of shells, rocks and pieces of glass. It was unusual and very nice; had become a pretty popular place and I think it was built years before we visited there. Not too far away was a street downtown where when you dropped something on the pavement, it would appear to roll uphill - but it was just an optical illusion. A girl who had been in my husband’s class also used to play the harp at that little motel dining room; they also had a soup canning facility at that location evidently another means for the woman to have made a living for her family after her husband died.

Kathy, I have been there too a couple of times.

You know what really struck me was the scale of the building.

We must have all been smaller in stature at that time!:)

The glass & woodwork are so beautiful aren’t they?!

The woods behind my old house in Ohio were pretty creepy. We scared ourselves a few times as kids going back there.

Rothenburg Germany Torture Museum

A cage used to incarcerate criminals in the 16th century
still hangs in the Medieval city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber
in the Franconia region of Germany, 24 June 2006.
Rothenburg was granted the status of a free town within the Holy Roman Empire
in 1274 but was captured during the Thirty Years' War (1618-48)
from which time little has changed.

We visited this museum when we lived in Germany.
It was one of the neatest and creepiest things we saw!

No, it’s OK.

Since I don’t get to go there much anymore, it’s a wonderful chance to go there in my mind.

Thank you, Connie.

It was VERY creepy...and really cool to visit.

Did you read the article? Anything in the way of
medieval torture can be viewed there.

The town itself is a wonderfully preserved walled town. I
loved it!

You receive CFRB on your radio? Or thru the net?

We listen to Dallas radio some mornings.

Funny, eh?

I listen on my short wave. They simulcast on shortwave.

CFRB was the first commercial broadcaster in Canada.
I like to get that maple perspective on the news eh?
