2 or 3 Wood Pallets to re purpose (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park)
These pallets are a bit battered as maybe one of the supports is splintered but can be used for lighter loads or dismantled and use the wood to build something else like a garden container or compost bin or .... I can get some pictures soon but wanted to let folks know these are there for the taking. Let me know if interested and I can get some pics and location to you for pick up.

Reading, writing, self (Glebe near Dow's Lake)
Five free books that could help a writer or other creative person. Take one or all. 1. "Style" FL Lucas. F. L. Lucas's Style (1955) is a book about the writing and appreciation of good prose, expanded for the general reader from lectures given to English literature students at Cambridge University. Rather rough condition, the spine is missing a piece, but it's still readable. 2. How to live, the life of Montaigne by Sarah Bakewell. It is about the life of the 16th-century French nobleman, wine grower, philosopher, and essayist Michel Eyquem de Montaigne. In it, Bakewell "roughly maps out Montaigne's life against the questions he raises along the way," drawing the answers to these questions from his Essays. I recommend you get the Essays as well, to go with this book. 3. The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, helps creatives recover from stress and other barriers to creativity. 4. The Lifetime reading plan, a book about classical books and literature you may want to read in the future. 5. Solving the Procrastination puzzle, about avoidance of difficult tasks such as your creative projects.

Training Potty (Ottawa)
Potty training this summer? This potty can also be placed on the real toilet itself. Or use the bottom half of it as a very solid step stool. Full disclosure, the hinge is broken on one side but this does not prevent it from doing its principal job - just a bit harder to detach regularly.

Cyclamen seeks better exposure (Dow’s Lake)
I have regretfully accepted that I don’t have the desirable conditions for keeping this white cyclamen healthy year ‘round. It’s resilient, but it’s trying to bloom and my windowsill is too sunny. It would prefer less intense light and cooler temperatures. Would you have an appropriate spot?

4 tires (Kenson Park)
They were originally on a Toyota Camry. Tire brand is Allegra Touring. Size shown in pictures. Obviously the rims are shot, but the tire wear is moderate. If you have suitable rims, you'd get several more years out of these. Or perhaps someone needs some tires to make some swings?

Silk & Linen Jacket nwt (Dow’s Lake)
It is with considerable regret that I finally acknowledge I will never wear this exquisite tailored jacket that was given to me many moons ago. It is labelled size M. The one-side underarm measurement is about 18”. I love it. I hope to find someone who will love it and wear it.

Miniature Greenhouses (Dow’s Lake)
*Consider this description as appearing on the back pages of a comic book. These are lightweight, portable, admit light, and have drainage holes. The roofs can open as seedlings get taller. There are about eleven of the medium size, one larger and one smaller. You may have other ideas how to use them. Go right ahead, if you are the lucky claimant. Send no box tops.

Tahini past bb (Dow’s Lake)
I first discovered that sesame is not good for me, then checked this unopened jar of tahini to discover that it’s past its bb date (see photo). It’s not soooo much beyond it. Maybe there’s a margin of error? I imagine that it would be ok for creatures. Any takers?

Natural Peanut Butter past bb (Dow’s Lake)
I’m embarrassed that this full, sealed jar was in my cupboard long enough to get past its bb date (see photo). I’ve eaten ‘expired’ pb myself, but I’m no longer recommended to eat it at all. While I’m not recommending this for human consumption, perhaps someone who feeds the creatures would find it acceptable.?

2001: A Space Odyssey on VHS (Barrhaven (Walter Baker Area))
25th Anniversary Edition of one of the greatest movies ever made. Today someone might look at this and think "CGI" but it was all done with models and visual effects - and it still looks amazing. I am not certain this is still playable, but it would have worked the last time I tried it.

Small bag of stamps (Barrhaven (Walter Baker Area))
40 - 50 cancelled stamps - mostly Canada and U.S., with a couple of European and Asian. I doubt there's anything of value but they could be of interest to a casual collector. Mostly I think I kept them because they were attractive. Some date back to the 70s and 80s.

binoculars + buoyancy vest / jacket (Wateridge Village)
anything really I am attending my first ‘Passenger Experience’ with ‘Catch-A-Smile’ Boat Tours next week. I’m hoping it will be the beginning of a new relationship where my skills with ‘Special Needs’ folks will finally have a chance to shine. I hope to obtain some binoculars before the gathering. I’m also looking for anything i can wear that is government certified for buoyancy and normal pleasure-craft use ( jacket, vest, etc ). 🙋🏻♂️🚤
