Here’s another one of Phoenix’s jaw-dropping murals — a portion of it anyhow. There’s a lot going on here, in what appears to be an underwater universe. Snapped this shot back in December.

Are people in Las Vegas to get therapy, or will it cause them to need therapy? Another neat sign spotted back in December.

A view of the main commercial/tourist artery in Las Vegas from one of the many pedestrian footbridges spanning the road. It is also a lesson in perspective: The Trump Tower isn’t as close to The Strip at it appears.

This is the last photo I took of the little yellow house once belonging to Enoch Sales.

The building in Calgary’s Victoria Park neighbourhood, long in a state of disrepair, was the last remaining Queen Anne Revival-style home in the city. It had been slated to be part of an area revitalization project called the Rivers District.

The building burned in a two-alarm fire on Feb. 2, 2019, and was subsequently demolished.
