Bridgewater Ramp

Last summer I shared a photo my father had sent me of a jury rigged stop sign in Petite Riviere. It was one of those "there, I fixed it" type photos.

Today, he posted another photo, this time to a Facebook account he uses to share historical photos from around Nova Scotia's south shore.

This particular photo holds no historical value.


























It's worth mentioning, the stop sign that was zip-tied to it's post in July, is still held together by the same zip-ties.

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.
