new bothwell

Wandering around my boyfriend Dallen's parents country yard yesterday made for some fun pictures.  It's a taste of something that I really miss while living in the city.  New Bothwell's better for more than just it's world famous cheese!

one match

I made my first fire of the summer today (I've been to multiple fires already, but hadn't made my own yet).
I think I made my father proud when I successfully made this fire in a matter of minutes with only one match!
All those years of rough camping paid off.  Happy weekend!

little adults

Anna Skladmann is a German photographer who did a project called Little Adults.  Her photo series documents the children of the Russian Elite (restauranteurs, actors, members of the Moscow intelligentsia, etc).  These children's lives are so extremely regimented (private lessons, tennis, & ballet to name a few), they live in what seems like a secluded world; Skladmann states that "their parents are attempting to make up for the Soviet times-- they only want what's best for their children."

Did you hear the one about a girl in Amsterdam who got pulled over for wearing a skirt while biking?  Outrageous!

On a different note, Happy belated Canada Day to all my fellow Canadians and a Happy Independence Day to my American family & neighbours!
