One delightful custom seen in some of the older and posher neighbourhoods is the tradition of naming the house. It seems that in the 1930s the most popular names were of Scottish origin and were proudly cut into the stonework at the entrance gate to the home - which in some cases is no longer there or replaced by a more humble dwelling.
"Rambling Artists" are Susan and Gordon Pritchard.
We are documenting, through photographs, sketches, drawings, and paintings our impressions and discoveries mostly within a 5 km radius of our home in Victoria, on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
