dead-house

The Richmond Hill Presbyterian Church Cemetery has grave markers dating back to 1806
one of its more unusual features is the 1863 Octagonal Vault, or deadhouse, used to store caskets during the winter.

black and white and grey


if there is a message here, I am pretty certain I don't get it

there is certainly lots to look and ponder over, though

schooner

H.M. Schooner Onondaga
on the side of a drugstore 
(it is a shame they put that notice on the mural instead of in the window)
the plaque reads
H.M. Schooner Onondaga
by Jeff Jackson, 1992
This artist's impression of a 1790s schooner honours the many sailing ships which sailed past the Scarborough Bluffs bringing settlers and supplies to Upper Canada.
Onondaga was built near Kingston in 1790 and served as flagship of the provincial marine unit until her retirement in 1797.
