The White Water Gallery / Black Water Art Online component is up and running!
There were a few delays but everything seems to be functioning properly now.

I just went to go to the gallery and photograph the exhibition for the online component of the event. I got about 3 kilometers and was travelling about 60km on an 80km/hr road. My van spun out of control on a patch of ice and ended up backwards in the ditch. I recruited some help from passers by and after a lot of effort we pushed it out.
I have postponed publishing the Black Water Art online component until Monday when I will try to venture into North Bay again and hopefully do not have the same difficulties with travel.
Have a great weekend everyone,
