I'll post some Rob shots while he's travelling west. This is the fifth cleat down the right side.

I never get tired of the view from the end of Rob's dock. That's my property about a 500 metres onshore the other side.

A dock shot while waiting for 'les boys' to return from their bike misadventure. Who's the stranger driving the boat back? Much too smoothly to be Rob.

Moonlight over Trout Lake, taken from Rob's deck on my recent trip to North Bay.

This is the best 'hat' picture I got.

Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes in a magnificent, powerful performance tonight at Bluesfest. Absolutely the best concert I've heard in years. What a band!!!!!

No, it's not Jimi, just sounds a lot like him. Bernard Allison on the screen tonight at Bluesfest.

Can anyone spot the hypocricy in this picture headline (hint...see the arrows)? For some real truth, see Dan Gardiner's article in today's Ottawa Citizen

Bluesfest has started and I'm hoping to get a few good pictures over the next week. This is the main stage about an hour before the start of Feist on Friday night...a rather tame start to the fest. Steely Dan was Saturday's headliner but the Lucinda Williams show was the highlight.

For those left stranded by the malfunctioning Fortuitious, a view of the Ottawa River from Crown Point on Canada Day. My buddy Brian is officially retired today and we got in a little advanced celebration on Tuesday at his place west of Ottawa.
