University of Guelph - Dairy Bush - 30 - March 17 2010
More warm days(small snow flurry on the weekend) and the snow is now completely gone! IT was 15C while taking this GigaPan -spring appears to have sprung! The 8.5 week old puppy that was on a walk down the path today was certainly enjoying the weather! The ground is cold, but warming. There were butterflies, flies and spiders active today. The forecast for the rest of the week here is for even more sun St. Patrick's Day GigaPan. Like many places in Ontario, Guelph had a large influx of Irish immigrants due to the famine of 1847 (38,000 Irish arrived in Toronto (a city of 20,000 at the time) in that single year). Many of these settlers moved into the townships north of Guelph, some stayed - Guelph was 20% Irish in a 1852 census. "The Ward" a popular neighbourhood in town known for it's Italian population - was originally an Irish settlement, "St. Patrick's Ward" is it's full name. Here, lived both Irish Catholics and Protestants - a situation that produced much early Guelph history regarding courts and the law. There was much near institutionalized bias against the Catholic minority - and a local powerful politician (Dr. William Clarke - an Irish protestant) appears to have frequently fanned these flames. Read about the trial of Charles Coghlin for the murder of Richard Oliver in the "History of Guelph - 1827 - 1947" by Leo A. Johnston, (fantastic, but out of print book) digitally at: http://www.ourroots.ca/page.aspx?id=949966&qryID=cb805b86-b5f2-4719-9483-b4744d6919ca Last week's GigaPan at: http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/44482/ Next week's GigaPan at: (still to come) |

A series of super warm days - and the snow is GONE! The ground is still frozen, but the cover's been lost. The forecast for the weekend here is for rain rain rain and so next week's likely to be even more brown and leafy. Is this spring?

University of Guelph - Dairy Bush - 28 - March 03 2010
Warm, sunny day. We've had several days in a row now of temperatures below zero overnight, while daytime highs have gone up to 5C. The dump of snow we had last week is slowly melting! More warm days are forecast for the coming week - so there may be more leaves and ground in next week's panorama.
