New post on the blog about snow sculptures in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Although Festival du Voyageur has gone virtual this year and people from around the world were unable to compete in the snow sculpture contest, there are still a lot of snow sculptures to be seen (in person, not virtually) throughout the city. This sculpture sits in front of the impressive Canadian Museum for Human Rights building.

Throwback Thursday to the Icons mural (2015 version) on the wall of the Prince Albert pub in Brighton, England. Mural was updated in 2017 to add some celebrity icons who passed away in 2016.⁠

Flashback Friday to 2015: enjoying a pint and a view with a friend at the Fortune of War pub on the seaside in Brighton, England. Shaped like an upside down boat, the pub opened in 1882. Its doors are closed at the moment due to COVID-19, but hopefully it won't be long until they can welcome back patrons and hopefully I make it back there some day.⁠

A few of the homes in San Antonio’s King William

A few of the homes in San Antonio’s King William District, just south of downtown. It is an area of tree-lined streets and heritage houses. Impressive homes started to be built in the fashionable largely German neighbourhood in the 1850s. It is now a U.S. National Register Historic District. I enjoyed walking through the district and admiring the homes in spring 2015. Plaques in front of many homes identify their historic significance.

New house plants. It's been years since I've had real house plants. A combination of my haphazard care and long stretches away travelling did not make for a conducive environment. After nearly a year of stay-at-home and in the midst of winter, it's time to bring some other living things into the home.
