I think this thread deserves 5 stars. Makes you wanna do things, or at least get some snow... Hope to do something worth posting soon.

Can't see most of The Relativity's last pics?

Car looks like something out of TRON.

You're right, this is the best thread in Sufu. One where we get to travel without leaving our chair haha!

My dad's last day in SH, we decided to go visit the local temple

On the way there, came across this guy delivering a fridge... on a bicycle! I kid you not. Who need's a car? I guess this is why back in the communist era, all the girls wanted to marry a guy with a bike

The temple was full of Italian tourists taking photos, not very spiritual at all! But the lighting and incense smoke made it beautiful

Life in Shanghai is changing so fast... but here's this old fella sleeping in the sun...

There was an incredibly detailed wooden sculpture onto which people had hidden small donations for luck

Ravenous temple koi ... they remind me of damned souls. For a small donation you can feed them

Went to the writer's street (Duo Lun Lu) and found this antique clock shop that specialises in restoring Nanjing clocks from the early 1900s. Here is the owner, with some of his restorations behind him. They sell for about USD 3,000 each

Here is the owner's workbench. He is now 80-something and his eyesight is going so he can only work on large pieces.

This shop specialises in hand painted shadow puppets made from cow-skin. The skin is washed, scraped, and polished over and over until it becomes transparent. The more complicated ones take days to produce. I'm surprised they find enough buyers to stay in business.

With my dad out of the house, I can revert to my unhealthy ways... Stuffed crust Papa John's pepperoni pizza for dinner... with some local Huang Jiu of course! (Yellow wine)

Another day (and a half) with my new jins.

Welded late into the night before to get my tree fence up before the storm came.

Next morning all done.

Snow was on the ground by the time I got my third load of trees.

Put chains on my plowing tractor(big john).

Serviced the 4-wheel drive case. Just in case it was needed.

[farmer]

Afternoon

Threw my newly conditioned RW's on.

Put up wholesale pick-ups.

Made some wreaths.

Special order 5'er

Got snows on my daily driver.

Chilled at the falls while they were put on and called it a day.

Sooooooooo....I hopped in my Back to the Future car and went to a warmer climate.

Well actually, it's what my jeans did yesterday...

After the round of dog walking, family breakfast, uneventful ride to school, I got a call from Air Canada Cargo. I had received some freight from Australia!

At last! I had been waiting for this since March!! We had to find a cheap way (relatively speaking) of getting it from Australia to Canada, and I was about to find out what happens when you don't use a brokerage company to import items for you...

Heading out:

Air Canada Cargo is out near Toronto's Pearson International Airport, quite a ways from where I live, so I filled up with gas. Damn!

The airport grounds are huge and it was interesting, trying to locate AC Cargo...

Finally found the place, went inside, and.... Had to take a number.

Half an hour later, it was my turn. No package for me! Yet. I was given paperwork, which I had to drive over to the customs building - to clear my "import". This turned out to be less of a hassle than expected. It wasn't busy, and I got everything signed & stamped in 15 minutes.

Then it was back to AC Cargo, where - of course - I had to take another number. Once I handed back the stamped forms, there was another lineup around the corner, where the entrance to the storage facility was.

I got lucky and got called into the warehouse area almost immediately. Wow. The size of this place was mind-boggling. The logistics must be fascinating. I'm pretty sure photos would have been frowned upon, but I sneaked a cell phone pic:

Grabbed my box, and got back ready to drive home.

Some interesting signage on the premises:

Traffic on the 401 sucks.

So I amused myself by taking gratuitous denim shots! Other drivers must have wondered....

Finally at home. I opened the box, to reveal......

I had this beauty custom made for me by a framebuilder from Oz, called Tarn Mott (Primate frames). He does amazing work!

Over the next few days, if I can find some time, I will build it up - perhaps another chapter in the WAYJDT thread!

My jeans decided to go outside and take a few pictures after work today. There was an incredibly thick fog that made the scenery look like something new.

Nothing interest today. Went to Theater district to pick up tickets to a play. Apparently the cops shot some guy across the street from the theater.

Love this building

From yesterday.... A relaxed day with friends. Met up at the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) for lunch at Franks, and a tour of the Pharaoh exhibition.

Day after our first snowfall....

Meeting up...

Franks...

Mmmmm...

A display of childrens art...

Security was militant about not having photography in the Pharaoh exhibition

Up to the top level of the AGO, for a final look at the modern section, and to grab an expresso.

A quiet place to sip coffee and take in Dundas street....

Congrats, Ren - ur all set for the future !!
