Dinosaur Park and a Pioneer Garden
….the park surrounding Dundurn Castle in Hamilton
My granddaughter loves parks and the park surrounding the castle is one of her favourites. She calls it the dinosaur park because the climber has pictures of dinosaurs on it. She’s a great climber and loves the slides and swings. She made sure that her Papa got on a swing as well.
In the far corner of the grounds at Dundurn Castle there lies a large, old fashion garden with flowers, fruit trees and vegetables. Some of the produce is used in the kitchen at the castle and the rest is donated to the city food bank. Much of the produce is true to what was grown in the 19th century. The gardeners were very knowledgeable and wonderful to talk to. I learned a great deal.
Introducing Digit: A Polydactyl Kitten
…..polydactyl cats have more than the normal 18 toes
Most cats have 5 toes on each front paw and 4 on each back paw. Last week I was introduced to the newest member of M’s pet family. Digit is a beautiful black and white kitten with extra toes on her front and back paws.
