A Necklace of Memorable Days

by Factotum

"Happiness is a matter of one's most ordinary everyday mode of consciousness being busy and lively and unconcerned with self. To be damned is for one's ordinary everyday mode of consciousness to be unremitting agonising preoccupation with self."

Iris Murdoch, The Nice and The Good

" She strung the afternoon on the necklace of memorable days, which was not too long for her to be able to recall this one or that one; this view, that city; to finger it, to feel it, to savour, sighing, the quality that made it unique."

Virginia Woolf, Moments of Being

Anti Prorogation Rallies

Rallies have been taking place in many Canadian cities, protesting the prorogation of Parliament by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. In these photographs of the rally in Montreal on Saturday, the protests were overseen by the statue of King Edward VII; I wonder what the Queen thinks of these goings on?

Petite Saint Pierre

The Little Saint Pierre River runs through the Meadowbrook golf course in Cote Saint Luc.
[Edit: A.S. points out that the stream runs through the section of the golf course that is in Ville Saint Pierre (now part of Lachine), not in Cote Saint Luc.]

Sunday Outing

Folks from the Green Coalition went for a walk this morning around the Meadowbrook Golf Course in Cote Saint Luc:

Avenue du Musee

The museum is a fine place to spend a cold and snowy afternoon between Christmas and New Year.
