Found this station...

Wonder what the language is? Must investigate.

Southern House Meets Northern Canada

Awesome attempt at a backyard garden

The water

This is basically everywhere. At the end of every street this exists. Nice eh? (Notably, someone put the name "Cody" in spray paint on a rock nearby. I was like boo and was going to take one of my thumbs down photos, but then noticed that it said "RIP Cody" on a nearby rock...and I felt like an a-hole!)

Hoops anyone?

My favourite house!

The license plate!

The sign to the Reserve

Uh, I got to this and the sign is at the corner of two streets. I couldn't figure out what street was the one that didn't go into the reserve. So, I turned around and went back. I wasn't invited on they land and wasn't about to trespass.

Love it!

Le Boo

Ok, I tried to take a photo of the 30 little flies buzzing around my head and my disapproval. Sneaky buggers didn't show up in the picture!

Cool eh?

The Warehouse

I can just imagine people bringing the goods over and storing them here many years ago. (Also, this was kind of hidden on the side of the road which made it more awesome.)

More sweet real estate

The backside of Bullock's Bistro

I noticed this cute patio so I took a photo. Then I noticed the MANY dirty signs that were all over the patio and totally cracked up!! Obvs, the owner of this place and I will be bff.

An attempt to show the signs

More signs

Possibly my favourite

What it used to look like...

Apparently the fish and chips are to die for. I will investigate and report.

Sea plane!

There are many many of these. Thought I would take a photo although I will not be taking a ride....bc I do not want to be vomitus maximus.

Sweet antler art

I didn't take a picture of the other side of the house, but it was these really weird stainglass pictures of lingerie. Huh?

BAH HA.
