2023-04 This year marks our 31st trip to Sint Maarten (SXM).
The Island was very quiet this year, but the Royal Islander and the weather was as perfect as ever. It was a surprise for us to see the seaweed on our last day, it was never a problem before. There are new stores and restaurants in Maho so while we miss the ‘Good Old Days’, the Island is recovering from the storms and Covid more each year.
This online album for SXM-2023 has this year’s trip pictures.
2022-10-23 Trying to get things back to normal after Covid and Fiona, the 2022 version of Farm Day in the City was a pleasant distraction. It was fun for the whole Family.

2022-09-23 What can I say about Fiona. Lots of words to try and describe the destruction the storm caused, but in my case it was not so serious. Sure we lost a number of trees, but besides some near misses, none of the trees damaged our property. So here are some images of the work to clean up the Trees from Fiona album. In the shot with the BBQ, you may see a generator in the background. Our power was out for 10 days so the genny got a workout and the old BBQ too.
2022-08-28 This was my first time at an Air Show in Debert, NS and it appears this will be the site of the 2023 Air Show Atlantic event as well.
While this location is not as great as my home airport of Summerside, it did have a decent collection of flying aircraft. My online album called Air_Show_Atlantic-2022 has a good collection of images I took at this show.
2022-07-19 Another great Photo event with Dave Brosha and Paul Zizka on my own turf in beautiful PEI. My online album called Day for Night 2022 shows some of the day and night images from the 3 day adventure.
2021-06-26 This month’s PhotoClub outing was to a special place called: PERENNIAL PLEASURES near Glen Valley, PEI. The images from my Nikon DSLR as well as images from my DJI Drone are shown in this online album: PEI PhotoClub Outing to Perennial Pleasures
2021-06-26 The Charlottetown Amateur Radio Club setup a number of portable stations and antennas for this year’s Field Day exercise. I took these pictures with my Nikon DSLR and my DJI drone at the site in Gasperaux, PEI.
The online album of images is here: CARC Field Day 2021
2021-02-06 This 2021 Winter had been so mild that the Woodlot tour was again in jeopardy. Temps were +3C and barely any snow, but just enough to hold the event. Maybe it was Covid or the great Weather, but in any case there was a massive turnout of about 1000 people. So many that the parking lot was full and a long wait to get in. Photos from my tour of the event are in this Flickr album:

2020-02-22 After being cancelled 2 years in a row due to poor weather, it was great to see clear skies and cold temps for this year’s event.
The Winter Woodlot Tour has a Facebook page Winter Woodlot Tour which will advise the status of the current event.
This year all went well and there was a good turnout to the Bluefield Schoolyard. My Flick album is Winter Woodlot Tour 2020.
