I have no idea what is this net for... At Maitai River along the walk way introduced earlier.

Clock Tower

Post Office, Kiwi Bank, City Council Office... This clock tower is one of our landmark in CBD.
I still don't like this huge BK Sign there.

Lollipop Sign of BK

Opposite of this fantastic sculpture, this lollipop sign of BK is elected recently. I with BK will rethink this to be more like some sort of art than such an agree commercial sign post.

Ben and I are Separating...


Just for the next 10 days. I'm going up to the northern end of the country today to help a weaver move her looms out of her living room and into her new weaving "shed". And she has gazillion looms! We'll be painting the walls, dismantling and rebuilding looms, and meanwhile I'm stealing any good ideas or color schemes I can find.

Anyhoo, Ben will be holding down the fort all on his lonesome, so please come and visit and drop a friendly "Howdy" to keep him company.

This wonderful ensemble is made with the old carpet from Nelson Airport's terminal building. The story goes that the terminal building was first built, carpet of this design was installed; years (decades?) later, when they refurbished the terminal building, they custom-ordered carpet of the exact same design!! Thankfully, after the recent refurbishments this century, we have more muted colors and a less, shall we say, noticeable design.

Danger!?

The warning label is starting to pealing off. It says, "Before digging, consult Nelson Electricity Ltd," and has their phone number. I think it should be a little more permanent and hopefully noticeable or artistic!?

Signals Changed!

Nelson City Council recently changed how signal works on the major intersection ahead. That is what this sign is talking about.

We received an "anonymous" comment to our Saturday's post from the owner of "Kaikouradailyphoto.blogspot.com" that we're encroaching on his/her territory. Kaikoura is on the eastern coast of the South Island, famous for whale watching and crayfish, and if a DPexists, it'd be great because we will no longer be the only ones on the South Island of New Zealand. But Meg can't find the said blog in the portal, nor by its URL, nor by Googling. Let us know if you find Kaikoura DP, please.
