Valley blur



I had the pleasure of being the passenger on the drive from Annapolis Royal to Halifax this past Sunday.

I was shooting photos out of the window and lucked out with this low shutter speed shot. ^_^

Bluenose Academy construction update



The building is coming along, the exterior looks to be nearing completion. I like the red siding they have chosen on the 'west wing'.

I don't know what the chimney stacks and the 'westeel' hopper is for. I'm assuming the school will be heated with corn cobs or some other farm waste?
