For a change...

I normally write about my thoughts on life but for a change I thought I'd post a bit of info. My friend, Elizabeth's current post reminded me of a link to another blog I wanted to share with all of you. It is similar to Elizabeth's post where she talks about Hamilton. A local news reporter by the name of Randy Steele is a wonderful photographer as well and has a blog of photos around Hamilton. It's a great test for those who live in Hamilton because it forces you to guess the location.

Steele City Snapshots

I recently emailed him and suggested taking shots of schools which have closed down, namely my and Elizabeth's old high school - our beloved Scott Park High School. He loved the idea so stay tuned folks.

And for all you library people out there (yes you Elizabeth!) here's a link to a story regarding a bad patron. Return or renew your library books folks or "we're gonna get ya, we're gonna get ya get ya get ya".
