Window on the World Column | Photographs and Memories

The best-made plans, as they say, are invariably subject to change. I had lots of projects in mind for the weekend ahead. Since I am working on a new book, I like to squeeze in some ā€œme hoursā€ in my free time, stolen minutes...

Window on the World Column | Time Waits for No One

Mother’s Day just passed us by in America and Australia. England celebrates theirs in March. Why the world can’t align days like this, I will never know. It’s probably along the lines of why humanity can’t get along with humanity; but I digress. My...

Letter to the Editor | King City’s Architectural Gem
