Down at Pier 8 for the tall ships. Getting up close and personal. Lots of people. And it's clear, sunny and warm. Happy Canada Day 150. #hamont #discoverhamilton #pier8 #bayfrontpier8 #tallships #tallshipshamilton #canadaday #canada150 (at Pier 8 Skating Rink)

James St N artcrawl. Local artist Corey Weavers and thick crowds. Could easily justify closing off the street it's so busy, hard to walk around. #hamont #artcrawl #discoverhamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl (at James St. North District)

Very interesting morning touring the Scottish Rite Masonic Temple facility at King W and Queen S. Home to 8 of 30 area lodges. They held in open house today in celebration of the official Freemason's foundation 300 years ago, though their may be ties going back further. A lot of history. Very open and friendly bunch. Did a nice job of dispelling many of the "secrets" associated with being a mason. #hamont #discoverhamilton #openhouse #scottishrite #myfreehamilton #300thanniversary #freemasons (at The Scottish Rite Club of Hamilton)

A piece I've been working on for a few weeks - finally done. An amalgam of some thoughts and images I deal with thru my depression and other issues relating to recovery. Though high functioning at times, it can also be debilitating for long stretches. Death is a major theme. #mentalhealth #sitelines #centre3 #suicideideation #suicidethoughts #depression #anxiety #sweetrelease #highfunctioningdepression #arttherapy #mindfulness #artasrelease (at Sitelines) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqYPx-5BIvT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ruzwhni0vxrt

Hamilton Pride Day at Gage Park. A lot of fun. But it was a hot one. #hamont #pride #hamiltonpride #hamiltonpride2018 #gagepark #hotday #ywc #sage (at Hamilton Gage Park)

Thunderstorm over Hamilton just after the Art Crawl finished. Good timing. Hopefully all the artists got their wares safely packed away and everyone got home without difficulty. #hamont #artcrawl #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl #thunderstorm #lightning (at Hamilton's Mountain)
