Sitka and Cedar

Sitka and Cedar
Sunlight touches part of a Sitka Spruce.
A giant Red Cedar springboard stump sits in the background.

(Do you remember the springboard stump featured earlier this year?)

Low Maintenance

August 27, 2016

Trail Sign Decoration
A sign that marks a trail that’s not really a trail. So no-one goes on the trail and no-one maintains the trail. And the vegetation—despite a summer drought—begins the takeover.

Salt Spring Art Piece
Light plays on an old Salt Spring building. And the wine glasses are at the ready.

Cottage

August 20, 2016

Salt Spring Cottage
It’s been some time since I posted a ‘Saturday home’ photo. This cottage conforms to the 602.77 square feet restriction. Somehow it feels much larger.

I call this architectural trickery, spacious minimalism.

Really, how much more do you need?

Groundwork

August 18, 2016

Groundwork
I spotted this art piece while waiting for my Salt Spring Salads*.

We’re looking down at Diana Lynn Thompson’s Groundwork, part of her LANDART collection on display outside Mahon Hall.

If your computing device allows you to zoom in a bit you’ll find lots of man-made items ‘hidden’ in the various areas of the piece.

*Operated by the GISS culinary/cafeteria program, this food truck (between Mahon Hall and the School Board Office) is home to the best super fresh, meal size ($9) salads on Salt Spring! Open from 11:30 to 3:45. The proceeds provide jobs for cafeteria students working at the food truck during the summer—and anything left over goes back into the program to help make it even better!
