Weekend adventures with the puppy:

York Harbor Beach at sunset


Crossing York's famous Wiggly Bridge (world's smallest suspension bridge).

That's a really cool bridge just for pedestrian crossings

Having a bridge shake and move when you walk on it does not give confidence.

They all move. If they don't, they break.
That's an over-glorified rope bridge.
It looks fun.

I know they all move. I don't want to know they are moving when I am crossing them.

No wiggle = no fun.

The bridge over Lake Hurun/Detroit River at Sarnia into MI really moves when the trucks go by. You notice it since you are often in a line for the border on the bridge. You can feel the damn thing move. Very disconcerting. I don't think it is a suspension bridge.

There's noting worse than a bridge that just lays there when you're on it.

That's what he said.

I kind-of took a cue from Koop (not really, but let's imagine I did), and I've repurposed our Ring front door camera, so I can see the rug rat when she's out of my view, while I'm working above the living room. So when she's at the front door, it gives me about 5 seconds to let her out before she just goes on the rug. Here, she's laying in front of the fireplace with some toys.


Hopefully, we won't have any assassins come to the front door, because I no longer have a camera out there. Of course, I can just buy another camera for watching her, but this works for now. It's not really important to monitor the front door when I'm home.

You have to ask yourself, if an assassin comes to the front door, aside from having your last few minutes on earth filled with fear and panic, what good is a camera in that situation?

So that when they knock on the door and say "Candy Gram", I can look at the camera and not open the door.

You think your locked door will stop a trained assassin? How cute.

Honestly, I just want a heads-up when the Jehovah's Witnesses are coming.

You should have said so in the first place. Those are 5 times worse than trained assassins.

What good assassin uses the front door?
That's not what they taught us to do.

They'd probably go through the pantry window.

 

[HecticArt]

That's how I'd do it.
