This weeks theme is Original

This is a photo that my wife took a year or so ago. We were driving in downtown Toronto along Lakeshore BLVD and I believe this mural is painted on the side of the Redpath sugar refinery building.

It’s a gigantic mural. The building is at least 100 feet tall and 50 feet wide if not even bigger and the mural covers the extent of one whole side of the building. It’s beautiful!

If that’s not original I don’t know what is!

This weeks Theme is Drink

This is Grossman’s Tavern in Toronto:

It’s where we’d hang out every once in a while back in my college days. Of course, it’s a bar, so when we’d hang out there we’d have ourselves a drink or two or three … You get the picture?

The bar didn’t always look so nice. They just had it painted a year or so ago. Trish and I, and my brother happened to be downtown last summer wandering around with the rest of my family as they shopped. We’d had enough so we stopped in for a drink. It’s still a dive inside!

We sat outside on the patio, and much to my amazement the side wall of the tavern has these great murals of musicians on the side:

Even though it’s a bit of dive inside it’s still a pretty cool place to check out. Drop in sometime if you’re in Toronto.

Hey, it’s St. Patrick’s Day today. Hmmm maybe we should go to Grossmans or some other Pub and have ourselves some green beer?
