Do you believe in the impossible? On September 9th you should. Yep, we're coming up on When Pigs Fly Day when inconceivable things can happen. But where did we humans come up with such a whacko idiom? Find out the origin of flying pigs and others cockamamy sayings at: https://wimpygirl.com/when-pigs-fly
Pair of pigs winging their way to a new home. I have fun making silly things like this....but I sure hate packaging them to ship. #whenpigsfly #flyingpigs #pottery #angel #devil https://www.instagram.com/p/Ciab8ohuU42/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Happy #flashbackfriday📸 everybody! This week’s flashback is from approximately 3 days ago when I went to the @flyingpigtavern for the very first time. My mom’s been there before with her friends but not me. What makes this even more special is that it was my parents’ anniversary. 42 years they’ve been married; can you believe that? The ambiance was very rustic and the beer-bottle chandelier they have was freaking impressive. To further commemorate my parents’ anniversary, I treated them to dinner…funnel cake fries included. You heard me right; funnel cake fries. They are as delectable and moist as they sound. Needless to say, we all had a marvelous time out and made it a fun anniversary after all. #42anniversarydadandmom #whenpigsfly #endofaugust (at Flying Pig Tavern & Tap) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chd3aDZOVV8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It was so awesome to be able to have Canal Days again at @meridianbeach_alberta ! The weekend was packed with The Amazing Race, the Canal Days Market, show & shine, a community bbq, silent & live auctions, and the When Pigs Fly Dance. We had a few band members that couldn’t make it but @nicolekuchle ,Daniel Dicaire and @terrykamps1 came to the rescue and the When Pigs Fly show was saved! It was so hot but so fun and yesterday I slept all evening and then woke up just in time for bed. Definitely the mark of a great weekend! #togetheragain #whenpigsfly #lovewherewelive #friends #bandwife https://instagr.am/p/ChSL0KRLGR9/
The sea pig Scotoplanes is one of the most abundant animals found on the abyssal plain. These unusual sea cucumbers walk around the seafloor on elongated tube feet, which keep them from sinking into the soft mud. They are deposit feeders, digging decaying pieces of algae and animals out of the mud using ten tentacles surrounding their mouths. Long, whip-like sensory organs, called papillae, help them find nutrient-rich food falling down from shallower waters.
Their populations are directly influenced by what is happening at the surface of the ocean. For example, large groups of sea pigs can be found feasting near sunken whale carcasses and other food falls on the seafloor. Learn more about these incredible creatures on our newest addition to the MBARI website: Creature Feature.
When pigs can fly... I made some wings to cope with the frustration. #whenpigsfly #pig #piggy #flyingpig #amigurumi #pockettoy #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/B98z2yon14x/?igshid=n91agz0qnp0y
So I guess it's not as rare as a flying to see snow falling in Garden Bay, but it sure feels like An Event when it does! #needlefelts #needlefelting #needlefeltersofinstagram #woolart #woolartist #woolsculpture #craftersofinstagram #penderharbour #firstsnowfall #whenpigsfly #flyingpig #pigart #pigsculpture #animalcrafts https://www.instagram.com/p/B7RlG6Kj-OP/?igshid=1u21z5px5cw5n
