#Hiking
Today I hiked to the City of St. John's water supply in Shea Heights, NL. It is approximately 5k round trip.
Wonderful sunny day at 7 degrees C.
Peaceful . . .

#PanDo #Bread
In Japanese, "Pan" = "Bread"
and "Do" = "The Way."
I always wanted to learn how to make bread. So once a week, I have started making bread items.
Last week I made traditional pan-fried bread. Today I made Newfie "Toutons" with a drizzle of molasses and a side of bologna. Yum!

#SpiritualSunday
In the 2006 BBC Robin Hood TV series Robin (Jonas Armstrong) says:
"For every man there is a purpose which he sets up in his life. Let yours be the doing of all good deeds."
Robin attributes the quote to The Qur’an. I've not been able to find the quote but very nice words.

#Hiking #KentsPond
Nice walk around Kent's Pond, St. John's.
People have been stashing painted rocks around the trail. Great scavenger hunt. So the idea is basically that you can keep or transport the rocks to other locations, e.g. other trails, parks, etc.
Also found a tree with a big heart.

So you are probably wondering why, as a Canadian, I am sharing pictures of "No Kings Day" in the US.
I normally "stay in my lane," so to speak, but I have family, friends, and colleagues in the US as do many Canadians.
I think it is important to bear witness. The world sees.

Next I took a step further to ask AI ArtSpace for an ultra-realistic picture of Jesus based on The Shroud. The result is the haunting picture attached. The picture depicts Christ as being somewhat emaciated, as he would have been after the torture.

So this evening I watched a documentary regarding the "Shroud of Turin."
So I asked Microsoft Copilot to create a picture of Jesus based on the Shroud.
It is as attached--amazing technology!
