Blog Guelph: Plant A Forest
In the Solutions For Cities section - the suggestion to plant a forest is put forth as a way to help clean the air.
Yah right you gasp and roll your eyes! Plant a forest!
But turns out - a lofty idea of such visionary scope is not only doable, it's very exciting.
Guelph has already started the Old Growth Forest Project - a 100 acre tract of land on the Ignatius property just north of Woodlawn on Hwy. 6.

Blog Guelph: Green Strides
It's not easy bein' green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water- or stars in the sky.
But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree.
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why? Wonder,
I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

Blog Guelph - Thank you Guelph for the past 10 years!
It is with great sadness and respect that Blog Guelph announces the departure of one of it's most revered Photographers, Dezso.
Dez needs to take a break from our photostream for a while to regain his health. He has been a mainstay of the Saturday Farmers Market for a decade now as well as a prolific poster of fabulous and original perspectives of the world, particularly Guelph.
As Dez states, " As one door is closed, another will open."
And so it is that todays 6 posts offer us a glimpse of doorways.
Please click on this gorgeous shot to read more in his own words and while you're at it, check out the rest of his beautiful stream of photos.
Thank you for all the art my friend. You are an inspiration.
Be well.
-Downtown Lynn-

Blog Guelph: The Shadowy Side of Guelph
One of the lifeguards of the Guelph Flickr Pool - Vaneramos - posted a photographic challenge to willing and interested members of the club last week. Today I'd like to feature the 15 photos from 11 different photographers that took on the task.
The challenge word was 'shadow'. Which might come as a breath of fresh air to folks that thought Guelph was some kind of perfect little wonderland.
We do have our dark side too.
And since I'm making a heroic effort today - what with 15 photos and all - I'm not going to post on Friday.
Remember to click the pic and visit the photographers Flickr site. Then tell 'everyone you know' with an internet connection about Blog Guelph.
If you're looking for something wonderful to do this weekend, come on out to the Guelph Contemporary Dance Festival and the Guelph Pottery Festival . Don't forget your camera!
Ta Ta,
Sue Richards
PS: This photo was taken at Norwich Street East and Woolwich Street, Guelph, ON
