Well, I’m back where I grew up. ‘Home’ for me is wherever I lay my hat.
Looking north from the QEII hospital over where Queen Elizabeth high school used to be. I believe it’s now used for a gardening class. The green area beyond that is The Commons. People are afraid to cross it at night because there are a lot of ways for a mugger to get away.
A reminder at Camp Hill Cemetery that history wasn’t too good for children.
Shrooms! Whooo!
How is it you lose a shirt and not notice?
Just to give you an idea of the sort of place Halifax is, this is the largest monument in the cemetery. It’s for the brew master Alexander Keith, two of the latest products the company he founded provides left as a memorial.
Meanwhile, just 100 steps away, the memorial to Nova Scotian ass-kicker and guy who got us our own government, Joe Howe, is half this size, modest, and very easy to miss without the signs pointing the way.

This giraffe is outside our office window.
(A Japanese steakhouse is moving from the 12 floor to down on the 2nd where those windows are, and they’re putting in a lot more ventilation.)

My bonsai trees are doing their winter thing, and the moss isn’t looking that happy after some really hot and windy days last month, but Mr. Frog (in the lower right of the photo) is still enjoying himself.

To me, wild turkeys always look like they’re made of plastic.
I see them up close and don’t think they’re real until they move.

I like watching them walk; you can easily see the dinosaur heritage as they prowl around.

I like watching them fly: in a forest, they fly straight up like helicopters. It’s really amazing to watch.

I’m professionally required to adore them. 
Bush turkeys make fantastic natural regenerators; their constant scratching through the leaf litter suppresses weeds and distributes the seeds of the native plants. The presence of turkeys is a good barometer for the overall health of the forest.

Sometimes I venture out into the cold.
The cold empty streets of Halifax.
But then I rush back to the heat of my laptop running a recent MMO.
Living large.

Computer says 2 degrees. The phone and tablet agrees. I’ve not gone to look at the thermometer in the window.
