Canadian military formation aerobatic teams have played a distinguished part in our military aviation history. Since the inception of the "Siskins" in the 1930's there have been many teams, all of whom have exemplified the skill and proficiency common to our Air Force pilots and ground crew. The Golden Hawks and Golden Centennaires are still remembered by many people who enjoyed their exciting aerobatic displays. These teams received world-wide recognition, and their members were proud ambassadors of the men and women of the Canadian military. The Snowbirds, while performing before millions of spectators across North America, are honoured to carry on the fine traditions established by their forerunners.
One problem has been common to Canada's aerobatic teams - the continuing struggle for existence. Teams which had been formed as a result of the perseverance and initiative of dedicated individuals slowly matured, but were all too soon disbanded; the prime reason for disbandment was normally that of expense. The year 1978 was a milestone in the history of Canada's formation teams.

Johnson Shut-Ins
http://www.mostateparks.com/jshutins.htm
The redeveloped Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park provides many of the key features visitors enjoyed in the past and several new features for today's visitors. Following are activities that are available this summer in the day-use area of the park. The park is open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
The Shut-Ins and the East Fork of the Black River
The shut-ins area of the park is once again open for swimming and splashing. A new boardwalk provides easy access to the shut-ins for viewing or swimming.
Visitors can also access the East Fork of the Black River at various locations throughout the park for swimming, wading or fishing. At the north picnic area, there is easy access to the river and a gravel bar.
Pets, food and disposable containers are not allowed on the trail to the shut-ins.

My kitchen needed to be cleaned but before I cleaned it, I thought I'd take a picture of it first. Do you have any of the same items in your kitchen? Take a snap shot of the item you have. Don't forget to check out the all paper at the top right.
