After dinner progress...

A partially built sideboard. The bottom, 2 side panels, two interior vertical dividers, and top are assembled together. Back panel, drawers, and cabinet doors will come next.

Our new sideboard has arrived....
40+ pieces plus 5 bags of hardware with hundreds of screws, bolts, cam locks, dowels, and glue.
Everything unboxed, so I'm going for a nap.

#FlatPackNightmare #SomeAssemblyRequired

A picture of a dining room with 40+ pieces of a disassembled sideboard spread around the room. Some are laid across our table and larger pieces are leaning against the wall. In the bottom left corner, there are 5 plastic bags full of different types of hardware needed to assemble the furniture.

The Webster–Ashburton Treaty was signed August 9, 1842, and resolved several border issues between the United States and the British North American colonies (the region that very soon would become the Dominion of Canada). The treaty would end disputes and controversies over the vague indefinite terms and text of the old peace agreement of the Treaty of Paris of 1783, which ended the American Revolutionary War. Specifically, it defined borders between Maine and New Brunswick, territory surrounding Lake Superior, and reaffirmed the western border on the 49th parallel. More importantly, it began a period of peace and friendly diplomacy between the two countries... until Americans decided a moronic spray tanner, suspected abuser of women, convicted felon, golf cheat, and narcissistic conman should be their president.

I haven't visited the U.S. since January 2020 (business travel prior to retirement), but my social media commentary, like the example above, means I won't be traveling there anytime soon. I'm likely to be "disappeared" once they get access to my phone.
Thankfully, I'm not remotely interested in going there.

Cassie, the fluffy grey cat, is lying on her side on the sofa with her head slightly hanging off the front. In this close-up of just her face, you can see just the tip of her tongue sticking out. And she's very fluffy.

So you're planning a weekend #RoadTrip and maybe thinking about something exciting like.... mushroom hunting. Well, Vilna, Alberta, is an addition to the #BigStuffInSmallTowns list because of a giant mushroom that is greater than 3 metres in height. A mushroom statue may not make a lot of sense in some parts of the world, but in Vilna, mushroom hunting has been a tradition since the early Ukrainian settlers arrived in the early 1900's.

On August 7, 1927, the Peace Bridge, an international bridge spanning the Niagara River between Buffalo, New York, and Fort Erie, Ontario, was dedicated. This event commemorated over a century of peace between the United States and Canada. I'm guessing there won't be a ceremony for 200 years of peace since we're now the "nasty Canadians."
