Glenwood Cemetery Picton Ontario - A Walking Tour - September 27, 2015
This short video is a look at 2015's fall Association for Gravestone Studies meeting that took place at Glenwood Cemetery in Picton, Ontario. Glenwood Cemetery is located in the heart of Prince Edward County and is a window into the history of the area.
The cemetery opened in the late 1860's and has remained untouched by time. It was created with a Victorian vision and was designed around the landscape itself; the hills, the creeks, the trees, and the wildlife. Come visit Glenwood Cemetery yourself and see why I believe it is one of the most beautiful cemeteries in all of Ontario!

A History of Britain in Thirty-six Postage Stamps, Chris West, Maynard Sundman Lecture 2013
Friday, October 25, 2013 at the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum
The author of A History of Britain in Thirty-six Postage Stamps explored his country's recent history through its most fascinating, beautiful, and eccentric postage stamps. From Queen Victoria's Penny Black to the struggles of post-World War II reconstruction, West showed that stamps mirror the events, attitudes, and styles of their time. The lecture was followed by a light reception and book signing.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Prince Edward Island (PEI or P.E.I.; French: Île-du-Prince-Édouard) is a province of Canada consisting of the island of the same name, and several much smaller islands. Prince Edward Island is one of the three Maritime Provinces and is the smallest province in both land area and population. It is part of the traditional lands of the Mi'kmaq, and became a British colony in the 1700s and was federated into Canada as a province in 1873. Its capital is Charlottetown. According to the 2016 census, the province of Prince Edward Island has 142,907 residents.The backbone of the economy is farming; it produces 25% of Canada's potatoes. The island has several informal names: Garden of the Gulf, referring to the pastoral scenery and lush agricultural lands throughout the province; and Birthplace of Confederation or Cradle of Confederation, referring to the Charlottetown Conference in 1864, although PEI did not join Confederation until 1873, when it became the seventh Canadian province. Historically, PEI is one of Canada's older settlements and demographically still reflects older immigration to the country, with Celtic, English and French surnames being dominant to this day.
PEI is located about 200 kilometres (120 miles) north of Halifax, Nova Scotia, and 600 kilometres (370 miles) east of Quebec City. It consists of the main island and 231 minor islands. Altogether, the entire province has a land area of 5,686.03 km2 (2,195.39 sq mi). The main island is 5,620 km2 (2,170 sq mi) in size, slightly larger than the U.S. state of Delaware. It is the 104th-largest island in the world and Canada's 23rd-largest island.
