Do you like going to school?


















I had a chance to visit the Frontenac County Schools Museum for a Christmas Concert. The schoolroom set in the style of a one-room rural school house in the 1900-1930 era. The desks and artifacts were collected from the schools which at one time dotted the countryside. It was for the first time in years that I felt like going back to school again, but it has to be this kind of school. More info about the school can be found here the Frontenac County Schools Museum.

Sunset


























This picture is shot through a sheer curtain. It is still sunny in the beginning of December in Kingston, Ontario. I'm wondering how many suns do we have?

Prepare for the cold


























There are few poles on Princess st. for bikers to lock their bicycles. Cute idea and lovely colours. But..., could they get cold?

Skate, shall we?


















The rink is opened and temperature is below zero! When we saw some snow left on the ground, we said to each other, "Finally, the winter has arrived!" Yippee!!!

Ballerinas


















Strolling along Kingston downtown just for window shopping. This particular window attracted me by these two dancers. Yes, they were dancing! What a great idea to advertise a dance school. Don't you think? They nodded and smiled when I asked for permission to take pictures. Unfortunately, there were reflections on the windows.

Quiet Afternoon


















Yachts and boats were long gone out of the dock as part of winter preparation. When the sun shines and the sky is blue like this, I would like to be out in water... if only I could find a boat.
