Market Friday


Minime expressed a desire to visit the planetarium last Wednesday. So we finished up our homeschooling and headed over after dinner to catch the early show and a nighttime version of Surfing the Solar System.

Our presenter, Andrew, took us out to Mars and Europa, and the most likely site of extraterrestrial life in our solar cul-de-sac.

HR Macmillan has added a new exhibit. Make sure you head to the very back of the Cosmic Courtyard to interact with Star Stuff.

Just a tiny preview


It was late and I had the small room to myself. I took the opportunity to meditate and enjoy the sensation of being at one with the universe. If you follow a blue star; you will see it go super nova and the fade to nothing. Make sure if you drop if you are in our arm of the universe.

The solar cul-de-sac!

I love your words, meanings, and the photos to go with them. You weave your poetry through your life and take us along for the ride. Thank you so much! I love your star stuff!

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world. Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
