By chance , I happened to be in Victoria for Canada Day.  Canada Day felt like a giant college football game with many of the revelers draping themselves in the Canadian flag, painting their faces or at least wearing red and white.  The mood of the crowd was joyful and everyone was clearly very proud to be Canadian.]]></content:encoded>

The <a href="http://www.neonmuseum.org/">Neon Boneyard</a> is a must visit for me on my next trip Las Vegas. I learned about it too late on my last trip to get one the tours so I had to content myself with looking and shooting over the fence. The boneyard is a wonder-land of old lighted signs, neon or light bulbs.]]></content:encoded>
