Furby House Books


I’m a huge fan of bookstores. More weekends than not you’ll find me at the Kennedy Common Chapters bookstore at some point. I don’t usually buy anything, but it’s fun to poke around. This Port Hope bookstore is one of … Continue reading

Bridge to Somewhere


I snapped this photo while whipping down the 401 on my way to Port Hope. I’ve always liked the look of this train bridge. It’s near Pickering Ontario, a small city just east of Toronto. The photo’s not great, because … Continue reading

Bridge to Nowhere
