Mooses? I don’t think that there’s a plural for moose …

We took this photo of a metal moose while attending an Art fair here in Toronto. This moose is made out of a recycled oil tank!

This second moose was found in front of a Chicago building.

Do you have interesting animal artwork or statues in your city?

This is an unusual tree house.

It’s actually only a few blocks from where we live here in Toronto. It’s south of the Danforth.

Why someone would build a tree house in what looks like a dead try I have no idea. If my memory serves me correctly I do think it was the only big tree in that houses backyard so perhaps that’s why the tree house is there.

If I were a kid I’m not sure I’d like this tree house as much as if it were build in a live tree where my secret fort could be hidden from view.

Icy Van

Icedvan

We’ve had some bad weather here in Toronto recently, but luckily it hasn’t been bad enough to do this!

Can you imagine being the owner of this van?

It would probably take a week to get it free of the ice! How would you get it off anyway? Pots of warm water? A fire thrower? Any other ideas?

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!
