Leave the ketchup
I just had a great weekend with my peeps firing the wood kiln at Bruce Cochrane's. I have been making pots half heartedly but being there with friends inspired me to come home and make. I can tell I have far too much time on my hands as I am back to cutting 2 pots in half and putting them back together with gnar gnar. Some worked some didn't but at least I'm thinking again.
Funny thing is happening here in Ontario. My friends Steve and Lise have a beautiful home (Casa Beaver) in the Beaver Valley. I stay with them when firing at Bruce's- lucky me! Their neighbours had a hobby farm for sale for over 2 years- 2.1 million dollars . They sold it last week with the condition they move out in a week. Buyer said "Leave the ketchup, leave everything we want out of Toronto. It's called a Covid buy. Houses on my street are being sold in 2 days. People are deserting the downtown hot spots and heading for rural and recreational properties. My daughter in law Denise has been given permission to work at home. This is a game changer.
I don't know what's happening with my blog. It's nice to see comments but holy shit people seem to be dumping all kinds of thoughts. I guess everyone has too much time on their hands. Be safe and well. T

Ever wonder how we can translate what we’ve learned from our recent pandemic challenges into dealing with the next unknown, even the zombie apocalypse?

Not surprised that people want out of cities anyway!
Moderate comments? I changed to that and got far less spam.

Is it time to leave for the countryside now?
Or can we just wait and see what happens?
EVEN SECULAR FINANCIAL EXPERTS ARE SAYING 'RUN TO THE HILLS'
Think of how you can help your family and how you can help others during this time

President Donald Trump departed from his usual tweeting and press conferences and hunkered down in a bunker beneath the White House. This left the citizens frightened and forced to fend for themselves.
Tired of being stuck in small, crowded apartments, as they were ordered to stay home. The restaurants, clubs, gyms, hair salons, museums, concerts and sporting events abruptly closed down.
Many people took flight to places that offered more affordable housing, lower taxes, better weather, shorter commutes and a better overall quality of life.

A wand is used for directing energy and anything to do with working with the element of fire
It’s a good idea to make your own wand because you will be putting your own personal energy into it.

And some epidemiologists believe the second wave may already be underway.
Quebec will again fare worse than the rest of the country.
There have been some indications that a second wave could already be underway in Quebec.
Time to hunker down and bunker down, in that clean fresh rural air, leave the plague ravished cities now.

Think of our exalted leader, Donald Trump, Denier-in-Chief.

Why would Trudeau and the Liberal government give these people a contract for $900 million.
Just another crooked charity and another crooked move by Trudeau.
I hope WE charity is put out of business, and I hope Kielburger brothers get jail time for running a corrupt charity.
That's no way to hand out a government contract.
But thank god the press is finding all sorts of interesting info on how the Kielburger brothers run their corrupt charity cash cow empire.
Of course Trudeau never got the memo, and knew nothing about it, just another example of how Mr. Dressup got played and lead around by the nose by the Kielburger brothers.
I say Defund WE charities and it's time for Trudeau to go, how long do we have to put up with this incompetent corrupt Prime Minister.
So run will you can, except a lot of cities in Ontario are now charging Toronto prices for their rental apartments, can you say illegal price fixing, and house prices are being inflated far and wide. How far will you have to run to find affordable apartments and housing?
Oh and if you are wondering, this has a become a global problem, with money circulating the world and being investing and laundered through real estate.

Good luck getting there, the doors are now closed except for multi-millionaires who could afford to live there. May be as an artist they will let you take the ferry over for the day, and entertain them with your artistic vibe to give the place some of that artist lifestyle atmosphere so the place keeps its cool reputation.
You're only lucky if you got here in the hippy days of the 60's and 70's, these days forget it.
So where are the artists and craftspersons heading to these days?
One very tiny house was newly listed for nearly $1 million.
A listing for a sad-looking two bedroom, one bathroom bungalow on an overgrown lot.

I wouldn't mind a free land grant, so I could move up there with my tiny house and homestead and make pots.
