Seems unusual
for all this snow
|
|
|
And of
course from a pedestrian’s viewpoint |
|
Seems
like the City’s first priority is to get main roads ‘ploughed’ – and then to
clear downtown sidewalks and many bus stops --- but as on left there is often
no place for a pedestrian to go but in the street --- still crews not as bad
as some years for heaping snow on sidewalks |
|
Hemlock in
front of spruce at Civic Center Of course
spruce branches hold snow too – but perhaps ‘designed’ to lose it faster
(thus able to utilize winter sunshine(?) |
Messages the
snow might send |
|
I
like looking at patterns the snow makes --- what is the message here? All
those trees of different ‘color’ – here seemingly in a line in picture below. Perhaps
trees at Civic Center provide a clue – the darker spruce behind and the
hemlock with snow on branches --- I’ll bet those trees at black arrow on
mountain are also spruce – perhaps others Hemlock? – would have to go up and
check out Previous ‘Traces’

More
messages to decipher |
|
Notice
at 1 how seems to be semi-circular? As if a previous slide or even a sea-shore
(beach) at a previous water-level – and seems to be ‘continuous’ with 1b and
1c (thus a previous slide?) ---
but similar to 2 --- thus back to beach and water height--- thus 2 hypothesis
(among others) to test |
|
|
Plan B? |
|
After
losing its attempt to rezone Seaport
building (my previous)
I hear the school still wants to put an alternative school downtown – but has
found some other location --- perhaps here? Or the old Forestry building? Time
will tell |

One has to
sympathise with the police – they are called to ‘clean up’ after so many
incidents – here they had a young man out side talking to him – the fellow
had no clothes on except jeans and shoes (but did not seem to be feeling any
pain) When the officers
saw me taking these pictures, one of them came over to talk to me – demanded
I show ID etc --- At one level I think they were afraid I would put images on internet – the constable told me that would be illegal as the fellow was a ‘juvenile offender’ One thinks back of
the Taser-ing death of Robert Dziekanski in October 2007 Probably nothing would have happened then if someone had not made a video of the tasering. So what is the
answer? In case of fellow with no shirt being questioned --- probably after
separating combatants (if that is why called in first place) – then next step
would be to get the fellow a coat – or put him in a police car, there must be
a procedure for these kinds of things. |
