Here are a few of the email postcards I send to a long and diverse group of folks who have an interest in Nova Scotia...in nature, in travel, and in 'LIFE'...

I am very curious about a lot of things and that curiosity sends me in many different directions (sometimes more than one at a time, which can be confusing!) One of the things I remember about my childhood is my brother complaining that I always wanted to watch documentary type shows, especially Jacques Cousteau...(how I loved that man!)

"Muuuuuuuuum, she wants to watch that educational crap again!"

Well, curious people have to find out stuff...

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!!

I will post some more images soon and maybe even share some that I have used in International Exhibitions...ahhhh...I'll tell you about my wonderful brass bell !!!  I have discovered here this evening that I can post a video...so I may share the 'little' video I made to celebrate the 'little' victories I've had in the competitive world of photography...way cool!

Ok, night for now...God Bless!!!!  

International Women's Day March 8th 2011

Hi...My friend Cathy Lively asked me to create a postcard to celebrate International Women's Day...she sent it to a huge list of women she does special consultant work with...

I decided to send it to my email list as well...When I hit the send button it went to 116 people in my address book.  

I believed that a very high percentage of them would choose to pass it on.  And...I already received word that several have done just that.  Hard to fathom just how far this might travel ???  (I am so curious!)

Just knowing that International Women's Day "exists" honors the work of women throughout history.  But...that same knowledge also honors ( and indeed empowers) those women who are actively making changes right now...

Our lives are touched by the women who stood tall and strong for our rights... and-that-is-what-IW-Day-celebrates......

                                              ....100 years old...WOW !

About International Women's Day

When:  Tuesday 8 March 2011

Where: Everywhere


What: International Women's Day (8 March) is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future. In some places like China, Russia, Vietnam and Bulgaria, International Women's Day is a national holiday.


Why: Suffragettes campaigned for women's right to vote. The word 'Suffragette' is derived from the word "suffrage" meaning the right to vote. International Women's Day honours the work of the Suffragettes, celebrates women's success, and reminds of inequities still to be redressed. 

The first International Women's Day event was run in 1911. Therefore, 2011 is the Global Centenary Year...
