Lots of Dots

Happy Saturday! It's hard to believe that I haven't yet used my town's

lighthouse as a backdrop for my photos. This large beacon of hope is

so quintessentially summer, don't you think? This lighthouse is also quite

important being the site of Canada's very first lighthouse (now in ruins

beside the standing one). On the way to the lighthouse there's a path,

now overgrown and wild, that leads to the old lighthouse keeper's house.

When I was younger and used to spend my summers in this town my

friends and I would explore such places. I can't imagine having done that

in the city - where squatters and druggies might frequent - but in a sleepy

town that's what constituted as adventure. I attempted twice now to

"adventure" with my younger brother about the town (yeah, I'm a total

kid at heart), there are no more paths though; they have disappeared due

to lack of use. Is it not a rite of passage for your foot to go through the

floorboard of an abandoned house? My answer is yes, but I'm afraid

not everyone shares this sentiment. And since that inner child of mine is

so strong I shall channel her through fun prints, such as double polka dots!
