Yet St John’s had a parade with the RCN and the CLB band and bunting. What was different? Maybe it was the local government? I know that the RCN Comd took the blame.

Lezlie Lowe’s book The Volunteers was a very interesting read. I need to read Stephen Kimber’s “Sailors, Slackers and Blind Pigs”

The crows must have taken a day off because it was the first time I saw pigeons in our yard. (I have seen them nearby on Chandler Dr.)
Three pigeons checking out the fallen maple leaves on a grassy slope. Late afternoon so the shadows of the trees are long on the ground.

Orion 🌈🦁🧡 would remind us that we had similar wet conditions on this day in 2020. Never a fan of getting his furs wet though. 😹🦁 #ThrowbackThursday #CatsOfBlueSky
Orion was a medium haired orange tabby who went OTRB July 2024. A photo from Nov 2020. He’s standing on a damp grey pave stone walkway looking back over his left shoulder. The lighter tip on his tail is a bright spot in a dull day.

Herself is doing the door wearing a Jays hoodie and she’s getting compliments on the “Let’s Go Blue Jays” banner from Dunedin Ballpark.

Orion was a medium haired orange tabby who went OTRB July 2024. A pic from 2015 as he is standing on a wood strip kitchen island while wearing a “small dog” sized Toronto Blue Jays necker. His green eyes are big and round and his light cream face is visible under the lights.

There was a pop-up sale on chicken wings at Gateway so I had to do it. 6 hours marinade and a little mesquite smoke to start. Another nice day in #Halisky
Chicken wings roasting in a drum on a bbq rotisserie; an aluminum drip pan underneath; flame visible in the burner at the back. The bbq control knobs are red and purple.

I hung the banner @lesleynope.bsky.social and some of the neighbours have noticed. 😂😁

A high if 29° today (but only 22° at the beach) so “Chasing Sun” from Port Rexton Brewing Co in NL seems appropriate. A NEIPA, 5.7% of juicy, hazy adventure. Very easy going down.

Bonus pic: Lawrencetown Beach.
A deep golden beer in a stemmed glass with a creamy head. Next to it is the can from Port Recton Brewing Co - white letters on a green background. The lower half of the can has bands of colour from green through orange and into yellow at the bottom. The item “Chasing Sun” is in the yellow band. A picture of a sandy beach with a shingle high tide berm. Blue sky with the sun reflecting at the margin between sky and water; waves breaking on the shore as the tide recedes.

Orion was a medium haired orange tabby who went OTRB july 2024. He’s stretched out in the mulch at the base of a large maple tree, looking upwards. The dappled sunshine lights up part of his fur as well as the grass and fallen leaves.

Orion 🌈🦁🧡 was too smart for the “one brain cell cliche”. Certainly couldn’t fool him by hiding medication in his food or treats. 😹
Orion was a medium haired orange tabby who went OTRB July 2024. He’s sitting on the end of a black cabinet and over the edge of the white stairwell. There is a room in the background green walls and white trim. The sun is shining on Orion’s chest fur.
