This color tool called “Color Toy” from defencemechanism.com has the easiest to use mechanism for finding coordinating colors of any tool I have seen yet. (via “Sugarfused”:http://www.sugarfused.com )
Fotolog
Fotolog has made some changes:
bq. From now on, once a free account posts a photo, they will have 10 minutes to review it, delete and re-upload it if they made a mistake. After that, it will “freeze” – and if they delete it they will NOT recover their upload slot – they will have to wait until the next day for their next upload.
p. Evidently people had been gaming the system to upload more photos than allowed for the free members who are limited to one per day. I have wondered how long this neat service would survive before it fell to the tragedy of the commons, and thought that perhaps they had reached their limit the past few days when I could rarely get a connection.
Boardwalk
This photo of the boardwalk gives another view of the intense green of the Toronto Islands.
Lody
Lody spent the night in the mudroom with none of the unpleasantness that I described
yesterday. She did complain several times, but the mudroom is sufficiently far from the bedroom that I was able to harden my heart and ignore her. The antibiotic tablets I am giving her are huge, and a challenge to get down her. I am good at giving pills to most dogs, but the long jaw and small throat of a collie can make it difficult when they don’t feel like cooperating.
Listamatic
The Listamatic shows the power of CSS when applied to one simple list using samples from Eric Meyer, ProjectSeven, SimpleBits and others.
Odd Day
You know your day has been odd when you don’t get around to brushing your hair until 2:00 o’clock in the afternoon. We got home late Wednesday night to find a note from our critter sitter saying she thought our collie Lody had diarrhea. Both dogs seemed fine and happy to see us. Yesterday Lody soiled in the kitchen, so I didn’t give her dinner. She got me up in the middle of the night, and was distressed enough that I regretfully shut her in the mudroom. She soiled in the mudroom, and I panicked when I found blood and mucous in the stool. Since this was about 5:00 am, I knew it would be a long wait before I could talk to my vet at nine. What I found in the mudroom this morning was very similar to what I found from our last collie Siobhan twenty-four hours before she died.

Lake Ontario
This photo of Lake Ontario from the Toronto Islands was taken from the path that runs along the shore. I was surprised by the clear water.

Back Home
After I walked out of the airport, I paused to breath the fresh Colorado air. As major cities go, Toronto doesn’t smell _bad_, but it doesn’t smell like Colorado either.

Toronto Islands Park
On our last full day in Toronto, we went to the “Toronto Islands”:http://www.city.toronto.on.ca/parks/island/index.htm, a short ferry ride from a quay that was a short walk from our hotel.
