Beaumont Marine Park

 

I am struggling with an interior painting and 

did this little one to loosen up.

Front Gable on George

 

When I was photographing this house, the owner was sitting on the porch.

  We got talking and she confided that she was going to be painting the house but couldn't decide what colour.  So I am looking forward to seeing what she decides to do with it.

I walked by the other day and the owner had painted the house a lovely periwinkle blue and was just trying to decide on a door colour.

Front Porch on Faithful

 

This huge old house on Faithful is one of my favourites.  

I pass by when I walk to Mom and Dad's place.  

It is one of the only houses of this size in the Cook St Village 

area to remain as a single family home

The Beagle

The Beagle is the pub in Cook St Village.  

Popular with the locals, particularly on hockey nights.

Faithful Trio

I pass these three beauties whenever I walk over to Mom and Dad's place.  

Similar, but so different.

St. Ann's

"Once Victoria’s first Roman Catholic Cathedral, it was built in 1858 and moved and added to the school in 1886.   The Public Works Department of the BC government purchased the building from the Sisters of St. Ann in 1974. Initially used as office space, the old wood and brick building suffered from years of minimal maintenance and was eventually condemned by the City of Victoria. The building remained closed for more than a decade as plans were considered for the redevelopment of the property.  A portion of the building (the Interpretive Centre) was restored to a 1920’s appearance while the majority of the building was converted into modern office space."(www.stannsacademy.com)
I pass through the grounds frequently and admire not only the building but the old orchard and the giant sequoia trees.                                    sold
