RDP Wednesday – Museum

Posted on March 8, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to the Ragtag community for hosting RDP https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2023/03/08/rdp-wednesday-museum/

I love museums. How could I not, when I have a son who is a curator at the Victoria and Albert in London, England and I am a volunteer at Montgomery’s Inn, one of Toronto’s Historical Museums.

We have have numerous museums in Toronto, the most famous being the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum). My husband and I have been members for years and love taking friends from out of town and in town to the museum as our guests.

Ice Sculptures in Nature

Posted on March 3, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…with all the wave action from the lake and colder temperatures these sculptures emerge

It’s been an unusually warm winter but we’ve had a few colder days and when the waves from the lake hit the shoreline and the trees these lovely ice formations take place.

New Flower (February 26, 2023) – Giant Bird of Paradise

Posted on February 26, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…much less common and far bigger than normal Birds of Paradise

Found this beauty at the Centennial Park Conservatory. The horticulturists had to clear away a lot of the surrounding foliage so that you could see this rare plant. It’s not as colourful as Birds of Paradise that we’re used to seeing in bouquets but it’s about 4 times bigger.
