During my ride on the magic carpet (also known as the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museums’ C-47 Dakota), we flew along the south shore of Lake Ontario and passed over this ship, which may have been the Ganges Star, an oil/chemical tanker.
Last Christmas, Faye astonishingly and generously gifted me a flight on the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museums’ C-47 Dakota. My dad flew C-47s in World War II. The C-47 was a transport plane so my dad flew cargo and paratroop drop missions. He served in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, flew paratroopers for D-Day and flew more missions in Northwest Europe afterwards.
I recently took advantage of Fayes’ gift. Here’s a photo of the magic carpet I rode in; this specific plane did drop paratroops on D-Day. I’ll post more photos over the next few days.
Fog relented just enough this morning to capture this sunrise.

Look at this face and convince yourself otherwise.
Lucy watches the world pass by. We raise the window curtain so she can do this, which reduces the possibility the will become bored. A bored dog can be a mischievous dog.
Though this shirt is well over 20 years old and has long been relegated to work-around-the-yard duty, it is a reminder of a good cause and perhaps the best organization I have had the pleasure to work for.
