vizsla wearing a medical cone showing off here really big surgery scar on her side.

Ouch. Miss Charlie is home from surgery. Removal of a large mass from her side. Had a large mass removed. Now to keep her calm for 10-14 days. Biopsy results in 5-7 days. #dog #pet #vizsla

Vizsla pictured with a circle drawn around a large lump on her side.

Miss Charlie is going in for surgery tomorrow to remove a large mass from her side. Originally thought to be fat, but the vet is now concerned since it has hardened. From the initial sample it doesn’t appear to be cancer. #pet #dog #vizsla

A very lonely small house sits in a field on a very bleak winter day. No trees around. Snow covered ground. B and w photo.

Winters must have been bleak and cold in this tiny little house, set on a hill in the wide open .. no trees for miles.

A PWA boeing 737 sits in a field under a storm sky.

This 737 came into service in 1979 with PWA in Edmonton. It was retired from Air Canada’s service in 2005. The aircraft became part of an exhibit at the Alberta Aviation Museum. In 2013, the aircraft was flown to Villeneuve where it now sits. #abandoned #Alberta #yeg #history #plane #airplane

This piece was in our main library in 2015 for a couple of months & a woman told me she would stop by on her lunch break & just sit & look at it almost daily because it gave her some peace. Few better compliments.
