Fixed it!

Every now and then my dad will send me a photo from home. Earlier this week, he emailed with several pictures of a shoddy repair made to a stop sign on Route 331 in Petite Riviere. The particular sign has had a hard life. Knocked over annually by snowplows, eventually the sign became loose from it's post. A crew was sent to repair the sign and this was the result.

I thought it appropriate to promptly share one of the photos at Thereifixedit.com and they featured it!

HMCS Charlottetown

While at Fort Ogilvie, Point Pleasant Park this morning I caught the HMCS Charlottetown, a Halifax-class patrol frigate, leaving Halifax for sea trials prior to their departure later this evening. The ship will travel from Halifax to the coast of Libya in the Mediterranean Sea.

McNab's Island is in the background.

HMCS Cormorant

Former Canadian Forces diving support vessel docked at Bridgewater, NS. Purchased in 1975 and commissioned in 1978, the vessel remained in service until it was decommissioned in 1997. After some time in Shelburne, NS, the Cormorant was brought to Bridgewater in 2002.

As of January 2011, the ship remains in Bridgewater, NS.
