Thank you - a bit amateurish but I'm working at it.how did I miss this thread, this is awesome. great pictures.
Really glad to see you on line. Trust all is well in your camp.I enjoyed your video very much. Such beautiful pictures and waterways. Wish I could see it for myself. Noticed the bear in everything.
I've made a couple videos before - I still have a lot to learn. Yep, sleeping is important to me especially after a trip.Oh so you have a YouTube channel now! Is this your first video? Those are some beautiful pictures and your tent/bed looked very cozy.
What was the blue and white flag with the crest for? Any relation to your display picture?
Yeah you need to sleep so you can rest your aching body. I do not go without resting its just the best thing to do. You cannot stay up forever its unhealthy.I've made a couple videos before - I still have a lot to learn. Yep, sleeping is important to me especially after a trip.
The flag tells people I'm in residence. So what does it all mean? The cross of Saint Andrew represents the place that I received my religious training, the shield of Scotland represents my ancient past [though both my families have been in Canada since 1843 making us Canadian], the maple leaf for Canada, the M represents my name, the bears represent my identity with the wilderness [or at least that part I frequent], and my motto is at the base. for altars and firesides
Latin is a part of many languages so its not surprising that most words have some sort of Latin in it. I am not much of a language expert so don't ask me about the history of Latin. There is not much use for the word Latin its just not used by other people anymore.I took a tad of Latin - jut a tad. It's a dead language [for the most part] accept that it is part of many words that we use in our everyday conversation.
I guess I'm a bit of a romantic and do stuff like that. Winter is a time that I muse myself with ideas until I can get out for summer adventures again.
I just take pics when the opportunity comes up. The Indian head, as crude as it might be, was at the more difficult part of the portage.I liked your slideshow video its got beautiful photos there man how long did it take for you to snap those photos? I did like that photo that had an Indians face on it. I would say you can add some music to the video but that is up to you.
I can understand it being difficult its something that really looks realistic and it made me thought of the sacrifices that the Indians had made. I never met anyone who had any ancestry to Native American.I just take pics when the opportunity comes up. The Indian head, as crude as it might be, was at the more difficult part of the portage.
The Indian head is actually a marker to tell me what direction to take. The portage [ a French word meaning - to carry] [the carrying of a canoe between two navigable waterways] was lengthy and had one difficult spot - where the Indian head appeared.I can understand it being difficult its something that really looks realistic and it made me thought of the sacrifices that the Indians had made.

Oh okay that makes much sense now reading that part of your post. I never would have came to that idea that the face of the Indian was a guide to which direction to go.The Indian head is actually a marker to tell me what direction to take.
