269. Weekend Reflections

This is like the distorting mirrors in a fair.  My image appears twice, above and below the line.

My husband and I went to the hardware store in Richmond, BC to buy a ballast for a neon light fixture.  I looked across the parking lot and the subject for Weekend Reflections was right across the street next to the ICBC, the car insurance claims centre.

Here my image is shown standing on a plastic barrier thingy taking the photo

How about these reflections?  What do you suppose this is?

Scroll down and the shiny object will be revealed

017. T is for Totem

G’psgolox totem pole returns home after 77 years

Welcoming ceremony at the Museum of Anthropology, University of British Columbia

April 26, 2006

The G’psgolox totem pole is in the glass cabinet on the floor.

"The Haisla totem pole began its epic journey on 23 March, from the Museum of Ethnography in Stockholm. It travelled by road to the Swedish port of Gothenburg, where it was wheeled on board the roro decks of the cargo vessel Maersk Wind for its four-week, 9103-mile sea journey via the Panama Canal to the port of Tacoma, Washington, where it was then loaded onto a truck for a 141-mile trip to Vancouver." 

Here is the full article.

Totem pole at the Museum of Anthropology

Everyone should visit The Museum of Anthropology. Locals and tourists alike. It is a gem. 

The MOA is a place of world arts and culture.  Its strength is the art and culture of British Columbia.

Plan to spend a day there.  Pack a lunch and enjoy it at the beach.  You'll have a great day!

My world Tuesday

Go green.  Take public transportation.  Take any bus that gives UBC as its destination.  You'll get a mini tour of the city.
