It was Car Free Day in the city and while there were block parties happening in my neighbourhood, Main Street was where we headed to people watch with a lens. We walked from Broadway (9th) to 30th and back, photographing the whole time. Yellowknife in t-minus two sleeps and then we’re going to depress shutters like its nobody’s business!

These mini Tony Hawks were so great. They made the best faces.





Lots of stalls, including on the left, a garage sale with the most wonderful 35mm slides for sale.




It was also Father’s Day.


After this encounter, this cat then went under the fence and from the safety of being behind it, tried to interact with the dog again.





The event started at noon and was to run until 7 pm. We showed up after 5 and some things were starting to wind down, as evidenced by the lack of people in some of the scenes. This was the 3rd Car Free Day I’ve been to on Main Street. Perhaps next year, we could go to the West End or Commercial Drive…

Sequential and some not-so sequential sentences discovered in an old notebook, written some time between July 11 and September 8, 2009.

Going out of town in nine days and there’s much to do! Northern Voice conference in two days (for two days). The nine days also means that I have that many day to get all the works - and write-ups - done for my exhibition in July. In between all that, there’s tidying the house, laundry, maybe fix up my website (if I wish to be ambitious and I shall attempt to be), going to the dentist and perhaps, lady-doctor, and oh, packing of course. I am so excited to go away. We’ll be in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories for about nine days in all… camping, fishing, touristy-sights, lots of walking. All that and the midnight sun. It is currently 11°C there (feels like 9) and today, the sun rose at 3:43 am and set at 11:32 pm. Sunshine and clear skies ahead.
Nine days.
