At least five years.

At this point, the store has been running for four decades, and Eric Yardley had another antique shop in Quebec before that. And a career as a teacher. So he may want to finally retire now but antiques are a hard business these days, so who would buy his inventory now?

Yardley’s Antiques has been an institution on Bank Street in Old Ottawa South since 1986. It’s been at its current spot, 1240 Bank (just south from Cameron Ave) near Trinity Anglican church since 1995. The building was built circa 1920. 🏢 #Ottawa #613history www.instagram.com/p/DR7QhyDkWn8/

So #CanadaPost has issued some wildlife themed stamps for the holiday season this Christmas. Naturally, I bought the rabbit and squirrel sets!

This days, Instagram and Facebook are just ridiculous. I can’t even see Glebe Report’s Instagram feed now. #Ottawa #OttawaGlebe www.instagram.com/glebereport

Yes, Ottawa has two places named Central Park. One is in the Glebe, and one is just west of Merivale and north of Baseline. #Ottawa #CentralPark

The Nightmare Before Christmas? Which was worse, fishing with dynamite, possible insurance fraud, or being “blown to atoms”?
