Another brick in the road

Aside from the metaphor of a brick wall, these bricks are extremely meaningful to me. They're the last remains of the brick used to pave Vancouver streets many years ago. They are exposed on only a few Vancouver streets, most notably in Gastown. But that little stretch of Victoria between Powell and Hastings is also paved in red - it's a street where my father worked, at Terminal City Iron works. These bricks will always remind me of him.
