I keep trying to post comments on this and on the church yard photos, but they disappear. I wonder if the comments ended up in your Picasa account?
Anyway. Cool pictures. Especially the toothless one. The figure on the bottom left - I'm sayin' duck. Don't know about the one on the right. It's not threatening the duck, so I'm guessing someone's having a big delicious yawn.
Loved the churchyard shots - esp the tree that was planted after the burials and seeing the grave for someone born in the late 1700's who lived 90 years!
Thanks Deb. About the churchyard, some interesting things there, for sure. To judge from the headstones, Elizabeth must have been a very common name in the mid 1800's. There is also an early 1800's grave of a young twenty-something guy from Annapolis Royal, NS. Wonder how he came to be so far from home and deceased at so young an age? Also worth mentioning: the fine view from the churchyard and a historic marker indicating poet Archibald Lampman's nearby birthplace.

Well that worked just fine. Who nose what happened. Probably user error.
