Day of the Dragon: A Painter’s Masterpiece
A piece of a five-part non-chronological series centred around the day of the dragon. __________________ Wall Agassi encircles the city of Gallina. Nine years the stonemasons spent toiling in its construction and here it stands, towering 25ft tall and wide enough to sport three horses walking abreast. It is an architectural marvel, perfectly designed to allow the flow of the river through the city without compromising safety. The impenetrable ring carries the name of Walter Agassi, a man revered for his contribution to the city while holding a Seat of Nobles.

The "Long Thaw" & The History of Flag Football
There is this little-known story that I have heard about firestone park. It goes way back, and the origin story is just word of mouth. Although there is an incredible message and several older folks who believe the story to be true, there is no documentation of the story. I always love to tell it because after covering firestone park tournaments for nearly 25 years, I realized that stats, awards, and coverage are a great way to expose the greatness of our youth. I also realized that there are just certain athletes and certain individuals whose name only appears on the rosters, no jaw-dropping stats, no individual awards, sometimes they are not even on championship teams. But these same athletes and individuals, let's call them nameless ones, without the stats without awards these folks, never have their greatness exposed. And yet these players and these individuals make all the sacrifices, put in all the work, and achieve greatness in silence. It is these types of people and stories that I love to talk about the most.

Friends and Neighbours
In the morning, I called Bobbi. As my real estate agent, she knew a thing or two about my house and as my neighbour, she had a husband who knew how to fix things. Ira came over, and I took him down to the basement to show him the water pump. He said it looked like a good pump and it was quite new, so he tried to prime it, but no luck, it just kept running and still no water. He talked to me as he worked, and I only understood half of what he said. He was the first of my Nova Scotian neighbours I'd met. Bobbi, his wife, my realtor, was from Tennessee, so she had that great Southern drawl. Ira spoke in true Cape Island speak. He suggested we go out to check the well. I nodded and smiled as I processed the words I heard, into words I know. We went outside to the little house that is the well. Lifting off the roof, we peered over the edge.

When the CYCLE first began, our most precious resource vanished. With society unable to reproduce, the remaining children became more vulnerable than ever. Treated as commodities, they were bought and sold. The enormous desire to become a parent was prevalent, sought by the most affluent of social classes.
