Leacock Museum, Orillia

This is the museum shop. I was told it was built later.
 
 This is where Stephen Leacock did his writing. 
His house is under construction.

The Biosphere, Montreal


Buckminister Fuller's geodesic dome in Montreal, re-purposed silos in St. Jacob remind me of this: "Everything in nature is formed according to the sphere, the cone and the cylinder" Cezanne. Hmm, I wonder what in nature inspires structures like that of Mies van der Rohe's Dominion Center or my own office building - school project. Absolutely no comparison of grandeur intended, PLEASE!
