Why
"bluetyger"? Blue is my favourite colour.
"Tyger" is my favourite animal and Mr. William Blake spelled it that way
some years back.
About
this magazine -
A
lot of focus is directed to the Simcoe County area in the Canadian province
of Ontario.
Often this area is referred to as Central Ontario or South Central Ontario, although that term encompasses more ground than just Simcoe Co. The north shore of Simcoe County is Georgian Bay, which is the east end of Lake Huron, one of the great lakes. Another key water playground in this region is Lake Simcoe. To the northeast is Algonquin Park.
There
will be pages about other localities such as Toronto, other places
in Ontario and the other provinces of Canada, and about the US.
Some photos of Ireland and England may show up. I am hoping
to travel to France this year. Where I go, my cameras go, and photos will
be taken. There will also be information about the virtual world - namely
internet references.
The main towns of my home ground area are Barrie, Collingwood, Orillia,
Midland, Penetang. Smaller towns are Wyebridge, Waubashene, Port
McNicoll, Vasey, Waverly, Orr Lake, Lafontaine, Balm Beach, Elmvale and
Victoria Harbour. Just north of Simcoe County are the Muskoka and
Haliburton regions. One nice thing about the area, black flies seem to
prefer the land to the north of us. We do get our regular Canadian crop
of mosquitoes.
