Living in the area is much like being a perennial tourist. Since I once made tourist photo-cards, I made my folio reflect the wonders of Lanarks' changing face. The arts and crafts also reflect the inspiration one experiences, from the areas' rich look. TOP LEFT: Toms' sign, which has moved form Bridge Street. TOP RIGHT: The Thirsty Moose is a pub and eatery opposite to the Goodfoodco on Bridge St. Super chips and taco dishes! BELOW,LEFT: The Good Food Company is a wonderful, esoteric place to eat. Great decor. Really, gourmet cooking! BELOW, RIGHT: I lived across the road from this wonderful weaving gallery,"The Blacksheep Gallery".
Our towns' business association, in conjunction with the Carleton Place Horticultural Society, has made the area lovely with planters and hanging baskets in the summer. above-one the towns'many planters |
