Yesterday I had the pleasure of hunting down some good photographs on a City-led photo safari of the Pythian Temple. Nestled in the heart of downtown this building stands still today after over 100 years. There's plenty of charm to be had in the building and its caretakers the local Knights of Pythias (more at Wikipedia). Our tour showed us a nearly all original "order of business" kind of hall, a plate-lined dining hall, a club room, and the stunning Castle Hall. Only 25-ish people were allowed on the tour and it was great seeing some familiar faces like Jen, Brooks, Dave (P. and L.), Naomi, Matthew and to meet a couple new faces like Scott and Wes. Thanks to Sharon for organizing the event and to the local KoP for allowing so many paparazzi like shutterbugs in to your wonderful space.

Saw this morning that the tarp is off and headed over to the Hotel Murano to see the new sculpture. Just after 10am most of the  scaffolding was off and I got some pics of Costas Varotsos' "Orizon". Stunning. The reset of the work buzzing outside the hotel should finish everything off nicely soon. Have a look at it soon 'cause, according to Bell Captain Dale Rush, it's suppose to go back under wraps until the official unveiling this weekend.
