st. anthony's parish

first communion
confirmed by archbisop macdonald
was an alter boy a couple of times
i do not really believe in god,never have







the old post office in strathscona
i remember when it was actually functioning in that capacity. there was a nearly identical building on the northside of the river in downtown where the westin hotel now stands.the only thing left is the clock which they built a little tower for it right in front of the hotel.










the old scona garage which now houses the keg.
i have consumed a lot of dead cow in this building.
















this is the side of the building,upstairs was the scona garage apartments.they are intact,just abandoned.i have been up there several times,way cool.i would love to own that buildingand live in it but i do not have 5 mil kicking about.i know a guy who actualy lived up there when he was a child.















been around as long as i can ever remember and great grease wheels.eat there quite often.










and thus concludes the testing period of the new camera,enjoy

That's a funny little story there stone.
The apartments look beautiful.
I think you should get one of the retro purses and call it a man-purse. And say silly things that guys who wear pink say like "The gayer the clothes, the straighter the man..."
