Today’s image is a painting from quite a few years ago. The Melita was the ship that my mother and her family immigrated to Canada on. They made their way from Ireland to Canada in the early part of the 20th century.

Interesting. Irish boy?! I know the Melita brand of coffee filters for the old drip system. Love this nostalgic piece, Andrew.

Thanks. Mom was from Ireland, Dad from Scotland, and I’m just a confused Canadian.
