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?

That is a very unique paint job indeed. Do they serve green beer up there in Toronto. I know in Chicago they dye the river green.

It is sad, but I have a gaping hole in my education. The fact that I have only been in a bar twice, but never to drink.

What an interesting looking building! If I ever make it up to Toronto it would make for an interesting pit-stop!
