A window with lots of heart

A creative window display at Dee Dee’s Ice Cream shop on Cornwallis Street ushers in Valentine’s Day. Love the personalized touches. A sample of the messages markered on the cut-outs:

  • I love bikes
  • I love data cave 542
  • My cat, Sue
  • Matt Grimson
  • I love that our planet has a moon
  • Bacon strips, bacon strips, bacon strips, bacon strips, bacon strips
  • I love our glorious province and smiling @ strangers

Going crazy with scissors and red paper.

A loving nod to the good that's come from the nearby skating oval.

The oval is starting to look like, well, a speedskating track. Workers at the Commons were tidying up the concrete pad Friday.

If stuff is free, is it for sale?

If stuff is free, is it for sale?

HALIFAX – This impromptu Cornwallis Street sidewalk display was better than Kijiji’s free section.

Among the items up for sale for grabs late Tuesday was a skill saw, Jon Krakauer’s Into the Wild and a festive wreath. Other books revealed a reader who was a fan of Hollywood films and wilderness survival tactics.

The goodies, sitting near the corner of Maynard Street, were going fast as of 4 p.m. No end time was posted.
