Unrelated
I admit to being a design junkie. Whether a potato masher or a Porsche, things that work and look good doing it interest me.
So I noticed this car across the street in downtown Ganges. We don’t get that many cars like this on the Island. And, actually ‘noticed’ is an understatement, ‘barely survived whiplash as I rubber-necked’ is probably more appropriate.
Then two walkers happened by, oblivious to the graceful lines of the Porsche, and in some ways polar opposites to the car. To complete the tableau, the window reflection shows an older fellow stopping and turning around to inspect the moment.

Soccer Pitch Rebirth
Not many weeks ago the playing fields at Gulf Islands Secondary were parched, devoid of grass and prepared for a rebirth. The SD64 grounds crew will continue to baby the fields for a few more months and then set the fields free to the not-so-patiently waiting hoards. It looks like it will be worth the wait.
