Around Thunder Bay today...from the North end of the city to Westfort and out to Bannon's Gas bar and back again...via Thunder Bay Transit and foot power....I believe I lost at least 5 pounds today...:)

I found that during my travels from one end of the city to the other today....there was one huge common denominator that is the same where ever it was I went today.....and that is...

LITTER and Garbage...lots and lots of it to boot.... literally everywhere on every street and them some as per my photo's taken....I must compliment each and every city transit driver I encounter today as well....each and everyone of them were great to speak with, polite, helpful and very professional...I enjoyed meeting all of you...keep up the great job fella's.

Sincerely...Jim Gamble 

 How LOVELY is this mess....Superior by Nature.??????
 This bus shelter was loaded with trash..Superior by Nature..??
 Westfort Mac's Mart....over flowing garbage.!!
 This is another photo of this building located in Westfort, which 
needs to be simply torn down and done away with.
 Garbage everywhere...and then some.
 View looking West from the bridge over the Kam river.
 Yet more garbage/litter..it is everywhere in this city.!!!
 I made a new friend today out at Bannon's Gas Bar....his name is "Buddy"
and this photo was taken by Fort William First Nations Chief "Peter Collins"
 More litter beside the bridge going on down to the river bank.

 Another pile of garbage...in Westfort....lets raise our standards shall we.???

 How pretty is this patio stone what ever you want to call it.??
located at the corner of Gore and James Streets in Westfort.
This photo clearly states alot about our city standards....
they really are not all  that high now are they.???
 Out the bus window on Franklin Street....newer condo units.
 Another photo taken from the bus along Simpson Street today.
 More from Simpson Street....it sure is pretty shabby to say the least.

 This building on Simpson Street is named after my all time favorite
mayor.....that being Mr. Walter Assef....I did know him well. :)
 Intercity Area....More Litter and Trash.!
 Hey lady...it is against the law to ride your bike on the sidewalk
she was clearly a senior and moving at a quick pace as well.

 There is litter/garbage lining every street I traveled today..un-real.
 Dawson Road sure was busy this afternoon with big rig traffic.
 The decals are in rough shape....Superior by Nature.???
 This sign above has seen better days.....shabby..!!
 This is a NOTICE posted by the city...on the building in Westfort,
on James Street directly across from Golden Bakery.
 Building in Westfort,on James Street directly across from 
Golden Bakery...what a disaster..simply tear it down already.!
 This place in Westfort...right across from the little mini-mall 
on James street should have been torn down  years ago.

 Looking out the bus's window along Simpson Street.
 This is the parking lot adjacent to the BRICK's new store 
on Fort William Road...a whole lot of litter here folks.!
 More litter along Fort William Road.
 Hey lady....she was a senior citizen...going at a good clip I might add,
NO riding your bike on the city sidewalks already.!
 Intercity mall parking lot was packed....
lots of early Christmas shoppers maybe.???

 That cup found its way from the A & W food chain.
 Ah...what can I say but the new Dawson Road stores parking lot
was pretty full today as well.
 I think this is a GREAT example of how the business community
should advertise in the city...this is a classy picture....they are leading
the way without doubt....many others should take notice and follow their lead.
This building has sat empty for quite some time now...sad too say.!
