Chatter and Chew
Chatter and Chewby Daniel Griffin Spring weather the past few weeks is sure re-comforting to most of us. The snow is practically all melted in Parc des pelicans. I miss watching the children sliding but the lovely sun of the past week is an acceptable tradeoff. I now can take my daily walk around the park, and listen to the chirping of the birds and the chatter of families who occupy the park during the clement time of the year. There is good news today, our dining room will

SUNRISE SQUIGY SCREEN
DawnI awoke at 04:03 refreshed and ready to go for the day. Got my play clothes on and headed outside. It was still dark but the birds had been singing for about the past hour. Check it: TwilightClouds, clouds, clouds. Greeted my eyes as the light grew brighter. Worse, the clouds were travelling toward the Sun to block the sunrise. .Not another morning of disappointment. Fawking hell, mate. But wait! Yonder blows a crosswind to help push the clouds out of the sun's path HAPPY

Why my Rocks Love Makeup.
My RocksMy raw rocks are not extraordinary. I find them in two key spots, and that is just in my backyard. There is a home for the bigger rocks and a home for the smaller rocks. All different shapes and kinds. The biggest was a grapefruit-sized rock. The contractors must have gotten these rocks from different quarries, as there are many rocks that would not be together. I go out and put my eyes on the rocks to pick out interesting shapes or just the shape that I need. Then I

Daniel Griffin. 22-02-15. Québec, QC (images are for illustration only.) Having a Post Office in your farmhouse is certainly an asset in terms of meeting the members of the community. As a child and as a young teenager I had the opportunity and the good fortune of living this experience. This was at the Griffin house on Gosford Road in Shannon, QC. Jack Griffin would pick up the mail at Valcartier Station in the late afternoon, bring it back to the Post Office, where it would

Pondering the Pandemic
Once again there is a certain degree of optimism in the air, the numbers seem to be trending toward better times for all of us. This pandemic is more than 2 years old and many of us are losing patience. I sense that young people especially have had enough of this and that the time has come to move on. People in my age group have become shut-ins, we rarely see our close ones, in my case I can see my sons one at a time once per day. I have seen my 3 sisters, (all in Montreal) o

Down on the Farm
Daniel Griffin, Québec, QC. February 12, 2022 @ 15:06 Working on the Griffin farm was quite an experience for a 10-year-old city slicker like me. In the mid 40's we were in the midst of World War 2. Farms in Shannon, QC was in most instances the only source of revenue, I or 2 horses, 3 or 4 cows and a bull of course, maybe a few pigs. There were hens in the yard, being in bare feet as I liked to be meant dodging hen excrements all over the place. I tried to help out as much a

Winter Wonderland #344
Snow AgainFebruary brings snow. I know that. Sometimes a lot of snow and the farmers are happy for the deep moisture. Yet I am still surprised at the number of snowflakes in a snowfall. I would wager billions and billions and billions more. Either you like Winter and everything that goes with it. The cold, snow, inconvenience, snow, freezing, skiing, hockey. Or you don't like winter and you are a miserable prune for 4-5 months. Some winters scenes:// HAPPY TRAILSHappy trail
