hooked rug..woman using deer's antlers for a clothes line

When I first started hooking I would post my rugs on social media and the very fine people of Truro were the first ones to buy my rugs. That gave me the support I needed to keep going.
I'll always be grateful

This show is for you Truro.

That's Randy's Pizza. It still has a fire hydrant there, but you may not notice it now because there's usually a large black truck parked in front of it.

In Canada we'll have a sale on a Monday in November and call it Black Friday. We don't give a heck.

Fillmore is going to have a hard time moving the post office and building affordable housing on that site if taxes stay flat.

Has "not understanding what insurance is" impacted your city council?

Know the signs. Be alert.

I know it's part of a larger boundary but I'd like to believe that George's Island had 4 people living on it in 1971 and 5 in 2021

"Some of the bikers don't use signals either, they cut right in front of you, it happen to me on Gottingen St. Friday morning. good job I was driving slow!"

This is my favourite comment. Fillmore didn't explicitly say anything about cyclists. There are no bike lanes on Gottingen. 🀌🏻

The Beaches are getting pretty popular in Halifax. They played the Seahorse Tavern, then the Light House Arts Centre, this year the Metro Centre.
We won't get to see them again until they come to the casino

Advertising poster promoting cycling for transport featuring four people in a row on bikes. At the top the text says, "You'd be better on a bicycle", and then in a bubble it says "Still [emphasized with big, red, italicized letters] the cheapest, handiest, healthiest way of getting about."

Embroidered image of Pearl, the Halifax Oyster Fest mascost. She's an anthropromorphized oyster with a large shell, layered in multiple shades & textures of grey. Along some of the shell layers she has large light blue eyes that are lined with black and with short black eyelashes. In the center of the shell are voluptuous red lips. She's sitting in a seductive position with arms and legs the colour of oyster meat next to a silver anchor. She's wearing blue fishnet stockings and black stilleto boots. The image is based on the real concept art for the mascot design, first published in The Coast magazine.

"Did you finish that oysterfest mascot?"

"Sure did, boss. Real fucking sexy. Just like you asked."

There should be an upper income limit. With the reappropriation of their funds, the greedy fucks should also receive a throat punch for every dollar reappropriated.

I feel like that would immediately solve about half the world’s problems.

Multiple times this summer, I rode by people on e-bikes who I would venture to guess are (at least) in their 70s. Huge smiles on their faces as we waved in passing on South Shore rails-to-trails. My e-bike is one of the best things I've ever bought.

This is a great thread, and it reminds me of many of the conversations I’ve had outside of shops, where 60-something and 70-something year olds often come up to me to share ebike stories.

Every year, my city has the landscaping swapped in our planter protected bike lane to reflect the current season.

We just switched from autumn mums to a festive holiday theme, and it adds so much enjoyment to my commute.

Infrastructure can be beautiful at the human scale.
