(Every time I see this house when
we're coming to our school house
in Nova Scotia I feel happy.

I fact every time I see it, I feel happy,

because it means we're almost
at Pugwash, and almost home.)

Steven and I have some odd habits. We fall in love with certain
houses -- sometimes for no reason. This house is like a symbol 

of everything we love about the Maritimes. And yet, we've 
never met the owners.  But I've photographed it and painted
it several times.

In Toronto in Etobicoke, we park in front of a small park, and

the same house is across the street every time.  A man stands

in the doorway smoking, and looking at the lake.  We call
him Fred or Dave.  A couple of times Steven waved to him
when we came back to the car from a short walk in the park.

But this house is really special.  Because at the end of a 
2,000 kilometre drive -- it says we are almost there. Another
10 kilometres to the school house.

Have a loving your life day!
