Spent a few days with my sister, and enjoyed a few hours downtown today, visiting the museum where an artist exhibited “animals“ made from household items and stuff found in junkyards. One of the exhibits were the “insects”, but I will show some other stuff when I am back home.
And something else, my niece is breeding Jack Daniels …. Errrrrrrrrrr!? ……Jack Russels and when we did the terrier-sitting yesterday the dogs(all lady dogs) did … well …

Like this...more images are available on the 'net.
These are copied from the internet, not my work.
The material was collected from various building sites mostly by one man, took him years to do all this. Almost all of it is discarded building scrap, tiles, metal, brick and so on.
I visited last in 1981 or thereabouts.
The city itself was built from scratch in the 1950s or so, and has some interesting concrete buildings, if you are into that sort of thing.

Apparently, some took it more seriously than others.
I will not have a word spoken against Jo Whiley:

I am a bit smitten, myself.

On Saturday I got to do what few persons can.
As a Canadian, I crossed the USA border and spent time with my American cousins. I did not need a passport. It was 100% legal.
It's called Peace Arch Park and it's quite large.
If you wish to read up on why it exists and what it stands for, here's a link.

Don't believe everything you read in WiKi. There is no one there hounding you or asking for ID. No lookouts, very few patrols, just families from different nations enjoying one another's company and of course the views and well kept grounds.
There's an international agreement between countries that allows the crossing either direction without passing a check point.
It's the only place in North America you can do this.
I grew up close to the park so it's not unusual for me but my wife had never been there and I didn't actually tell her about it until we stepped over the border and I told her she now had one foot in each country. We continued our walk and circled back to Canada enjoying the scenery. Took about an hour and I came back...
...feeling very enlightened.
