"Inukshuk, the singular of inuksuit, means "in the likeness of a human" in the Inuit language. They are monuments made of unworked stones that are used by the Inuit for communication and survival. The traditional meaning of the inukshuk is "Someone was here" or "You are on the right path."" From

My youngest daughter suggested that we could go E of the city to look for Snowy Owls for our Christmas get-together. So, on 20 December, we drove the back roads NE and E of the city, bumping into my friends, Cathy and Terry, part way through the day. We continued our search with them and ended up with 10 definite individuals plus two very distant ones that we weren't quite sure about. It made for a lovely day, ending with my daughter and I exchanging gifts at her place late afternoon.
Along one of the roads out E, we came across this fun Santa Inukshuk. It took me by surprise, as I had seen it before on a long-ago birding trip. Hadn't realized back then just where we were. I'll post the previously posted photo that I took on 20 December 2009, in a comment box below.

This will look very familiar to a few of my friends, who have also come across this Inukshuk east of the city.
