Ottoman stumbled upon this amazing sight while visiting his father a few days ago.
DrFumblefinger revisits the small town of Pine Falls. Situated on the banks of the Winnipeg River, it was a place he used to fish at in his younger years. A bonus was the discovery of a great old steam locomotive.
A nostalgic visit to Victoria Beach, where DrFumblefinger’s family had a summer vacation home so long ago. Had it changed much over the years??
An up close look at an osprey on its nesting platform. Osprey are commonly called fish eagles and are very adept at catching fish — which lazier bald eagles often steal from them.
DrFumblefinger shares photos of a lovely beach, and the mystery of a large boulder suddenly appeared on it.
Gumbo was visiting Historic Lower Fort Garry, situated on the banks of the Red River about a half hour’s drive north of Winnipeg. Built in 1830 by the Hudson’s Bay company, part of then Rupert’s Land, the stone wall fort if well preserved an a popular Canadian Historic site.
At Winnipeg Airport, DrFumblefinger enjoyed brilliant views of sunset, some with planes silhouetted against the sky.
Traveling Canuck shares some of the interesting street art murals of Winnipeg.
Gumbo stumbled on this classic 1930s Chevy parked in a driveway in the small town of Morris, Manitoba. A beauty…..
